WIB Member, Loraa White promotes Budget Music Videos recent successes

Locally based business, Budget Music Videos, has recently launched the world's first 'stock music video database'. This is where musicians, record labels, producers and anyone working in the music industry can purchase 'ready made' music videos. Women in Business member, Loraa White is the company Director of Budget Music Videos explains how “the music video is undoubtably the most important part of marketing music, so Budget Music Videos has developed a website that allows musicians to pick and choose their style of music video, add their music and download in a matter of minutes. This is not only time and labour saving but at a fraction of the cost of normal music video production”.

 

Budget Music Videos originally started off as a video production company in 2013 and this is still a service they offer today. However, after analysing the market and the needs of the customers, Loraa could see a dramatic shift in the need for faster, cheaper and easily accessible content for music makers to promote their music. Loraa also wishes to offer more services for musicians to help the whole process, including video marketing and online tutorials, so musicians could be fully armed with everything they need to launch and market their music.

 

It has taken 2 years to build the ecommerce website, music video database, and an editing software built into the website. With a Proof of Concept grant from Techstart NI, they were able to build a custom video editing software so musicians can edit their video before they buy. Budget Music Videos finally launched the new platform a few months ago and are currently testing and trialling the market.

 

To add to the launch, Budget Music Videos has collaborated with one of the biggest music platforms for independent music, 'Reverbnation.com'. With over 5million subscribers worldwide Reverbnation has been recently promoting Budget Music Videos on their opportunities page which resulted in almost 3000 entries into a competition to win a free stock music video. With these amazing results, Reverbnation are also featuring Budget Music Videos on an exclusive part of the platform, their 'Marketplace'. This is where musicians can shop for companies they want to work with. Only 10 businesses from across the world can feature there, so this is quite a privilege. As Budget Music Videos takes the new 'stock music video database' to market this will be a great steppingstone to test the market with direct customers and start seeing some results.

 

The 'stock music video database' has been 2 years in the making and received support from Tech Start NI, ABC Council, BBC Introducing, First Music Council, Ireland Music Week, Belfast City Council, IEngageIT and many more. There are future plans for the company to develop internationally and are collaborating with more music platforms across Europe and the UK. Budget Music Videos hopes to continue and grow over the coming months and develop the idea, functionality and current content on the website. Onwards and Upwards for Budget Music Videos in 2020!
