There are many things that marketers should have in mind when making videos that showcases their company or activities to make them as accessible as possible. This may include the used of closed captions, audio descriptions and transcripts, for example. Including these and doing them well will expand your potential reach. It also draws focus on an important issue, which can sometimes (often?) be overseen when producing marketing videos for the web.
