SoMedia Launches Integration with Leading Content Marketing Platform, Kapost

VANCOUVER, British Columbia --(Business Wire)--

SoMedia Networks (TSX-V:VID), the pioneer of globally scalable video production solutions, is pleased to announce its integration with Kapost, the leading content marketing software platform. SoMedia's Scalable Video App for Kapost provides marketers with full-service, high volume video production, plus free hosting, custom video players and real-time video analytics.

Scalable Video for Kapost enables marketers to order the production of professionally shot video for their content marketing campaigns, anywhere in North America, in any volume, with a fourteen-day turnaround. SoMedia's free video players are automatically integrated into Kapost's content library, enabling businesses to easily embed and deploy their video content within third party platforms including blogs, landing pages, social networks and other forms of media. SoMedia's real-time video analytics provide video behaviour and performance data for every embed location, enabling video ROI analysis.

"Video has proven itself to be the most effective content marketing medium and we have solved the production challenges that marketers face when scaling up their use of video," said Ben Pickering, President and Co-CEO of SoMedia Networks. "Scalable Video is the first video production solution that treats video as an ROI driven marketing tool. With the Scalable Video App, Kapost customers are able to easily include video in their content marketing workflow with access to high quality video content production on-demand, anywhere in North America, at the lowest price points in the market."

Content marketing is at the core of successful demand generation campaigns and according to the Content Marketing Institute, 60% of B2B content marketers say video is one of the most effective content marketing tactics and 86% say they will be creating more visual content within the next 12 months. But until now, content marketing platforms like Kapost have focused primarily on text and image based content and have not offered a fully integrated video production, player and analytics solution to their customers due to the lack of scalability of traditional video production. Scalable Video for Kapost enables every Kapost customer to seamlessly design, order, deploy, manage and track video content as a key part of their content marketing strategies.

"Having a strategic partner like SoMedia Networks, whose expertise and understanding of video and its role in the content marketing space is invaluable," said Mike Lewis, Co-Founder and President of Kapost. "Scalable Video gives Kapost customers the ability to access turn-key video production and management services that enhances our platform and our customers' ability to deploy greater amounts of video in their content marketing initiatives."

Kapost enables marketers to publish and distribute content across multiple channels and to manage their entire content operation and serves hundreds of customers including: AT&T, Intel, Oracle, Allstate, General Mills and Lenovo (News - Alert), Hootsuite, salesforce.com, Dell, IBM, GE.
