Why should you distribute your videos on social media?

In a highly congested OTT space, brands are battling to grab the viewer's attention. The best way to do this is to take your content to where they spend most of their time -- social media.

This is one of the best strategies to increase installs and open frequency.

However, keep a watch on what type of content you post on your social handles. Posting content monetized by AVOD is recommended, at the same time sharing TVOD or SVOD content could do more harm than benefit.

If your business model is TVOD or SVOD, you could still leverage it by sharing trailers and promos on social handles.

Now let's understand how to share your videos on your social handles.
