Nook Introduces Short-Form Video to Enhance Niche Experiences

Wayzata, MN (July 17, 2024)–Nook, a Credit Union Service Organization (CUSO) and pioneer of niche experiences, proudly announces the launch of Nook Shorts, its new short-form video feature designed to enhance niche experiences for credit union members.

Nook Shorts are embedded, 1–2 minute videos intended to engage, educate, and inspire viewers. Nook is continuously improving its Niche Experience Platform to boost member engagement and transforming written content into high-resolution, narrated video content is just one of many ways Nook plans to continue innovating credit union member experiences.

“Nook’s mission has always been to provide innovative and engaging solutions that resonate with credit union members,” stated Austin Wentzlaff, Nook Co-Founder & CEO. “We’re thrilled to introduce our new short-form video feature, designed to further expand our goal of creating the best member experience imaginable. This latest addition to the Niche Experience Platform allows us to deliver captivating videos that enhance digital engagement and provide exceptional value to credit union members.”

Nook invested in the development of Nook Shorts because video content is proven to benefit its credit union industry clients in the following ways:

• Engagement Rates: Video content on social media generates 1200% more shares than text and images combined. (Source: HubSpot)
• Retention Rates: People spend, on average, 2.6x more time on pages with video than without. (Source: Wistia)
• Conversion Rates: Businesses using video grow revenue 49% faster year-over-year than organizations without video. (Source: Vidyard)
