“Avista makes video affordable as a tool for businesses and non-profits to effectively communicate their marketing and training messages.”
Video is more cost-effective today
With the rapid increases in computer technology, the cost of video has come down significantly, making it an affordable tool for your organization. For the price of six $500 display ads, you can have a powerful video that works for you every day of the week. Transfer the video to CD-ROM (with affordable, interactive options) or DVD, and your customers and employees can view your message on their office computers. You can also put portions of the video on your website for your customers and prospects to see.
Video makes a better impression:
- Your Message is 70% More Memorable on Video.
- Potential Customers Keep Videos and CDs Longer than Print Brochures.
- Videos Stand Out in Direct Mail, Trade Fairs and as Customer Follow-Up.
Video works for every industry
Avista has produced promotional videos for the homebuilding, construction, healthcare, property management, financial planning, engineering, education and banking industries, as well as for federal, city, and state governments.

Video or CD as a Training & Human Resources Tool
As Human Resources Managers take on increased responsibilities, multi-media can assist them to more effectively manage their time and resources.
- Recruitment - Educate prospective employees about your organization’s requirements and expectations in a way that economizes HR staff resources.
- Orientation/Video Tour - For new and current employees, a motivational overview of the company’s history, mission, values, goals and the key role that staff play in the company’s success.
- Training - Organizations that conduct any type of training (benefits, civil rights) can have sessions videotaped. The benefits of this one-time investment are:
- New staff trained on-demand,
- HR staff can expand the reach of their training while freeing up their time,
- Video can serve as a backup or refresher course.
- Teaching/Instruction - Use video as a teaching tool to improve staff performance. Great for critique of public speaking and evaluation of instruction or counseling techniques.
- Demonstration - For “How To” purposes. Demonstrate how to utilize your product or service. Video/CD can be sold or included as a companion to an instruction manual.
- Uniform Presentation - Volunteer and other organizations can standardize instructional information, facilitating a more consistent message from a diverse group of individuals.
"The Avista staff were professional, friendly and open to our suggestions…
Avista was truly interested in making a video [that] worked for TriCore, not trying to fit us into their predetermined ideas of what a corporate video should be. Avista placed a high value on quality and accuracy…
The final products are truly something we at TriCore take great pride in showing to our existing and potential employees."Terri Stewart, Vice President Marketing/Business Development
