AMAG Technology Scales Storytelling Through Crowdsourced Video
AMAG Technology scaled authentic marketing, training, and customer content through crowdsourced video—boosting speed, variety, and engagement across the business.
Client Overview
Company: AMAG Technology
Industry: Security and Access Control Solutions
Audience: Security integrators, technology partners, end users, and internal teams
AMAG Technology is a global leader in security technology, providing access control, video management, visitor management, and identity solutions. With a diverse customer base and a rapidly evolving product portfolio, AMAG needed a way to keep marketing content authentic, relevant, and consistently fresh—without placing unsustainable demands on its internal marketing team.
The Challenge
Even with a strong brand presence, AMAG faced three persistent challenges:
- Limited Bandwidth: A lean marketing team couldn’t capture and produce every product, partner, and customer story at scale.
- Production Bottlenecks: Traditional video production cycles slowed down the ability to respond to product launches or market opportunities.
- Need for Authenticity: Security buyers trust first-hand expertise from the people closest to the products, yet those voices often went untapped.
The Strategic Opportunity
Crowdsourcing video content from employees, product specialists, and partners could:
- Turn product managers, engineers, and customers into storytellers.
- Capture content year-round, without waiting for large shoots or events.
- Create a library of multi-use video assets that serve marketing, sales, training, and customer success.
Campaign Execution
1. Empowering the ExpertsAMAG gave employees, partners, and select customers direct access to MarketScale’s crowdsourced video platform. Anyone in the ecosystem could record content from anywhere, anytime.
2. Editorial and Quality ControlAll submitted clips were edited by MarketScale into polished, brand-compliant videos. The workflow ensured fast turnaround without sacrificing visual quality or messaging accuracy.
3. Expanding Video Use CasesThe same authentic footage powered:
