Are you trying to make a demo for your product but you’re struggling with the audio? Here, we explain to you how a text-to-speech tool can help you.
With the advancement of technology, it’s no surprise that marketing has changed and is now mostly online. According to a recent Wyzowl survey, 69% of consumers prefer to learn more about a brand’s products or services by watching a short video. 84% of that total believe that the video convinced them to buy something. With this, it’s obvious that video marketing is the future of publicity.
There are tons of ways to do this type of video and a million platforms to share it later, so you can reach more audience. However, you might find it hard to produce the video itself if you don’t have the right equipment. A camera and a microphone seem mandatory, but we’re here to prove to you that that’s not quite true.
If you want to make your product demo but don’t count with a microphone, then don’t worry, we have the perfect solution for you and it’s called text-to-speech (TTS). This is a software that uses assistive technology to transform any text into audio. Sound great, right? You can write anything and a machine will read it for you with a realistic voice, just like you’re the one saying it.
How To Use A TTS
There are tons of TTS available online, so you need to be careful and choose the one that’s perfect for you so you don’t lose money and time. To explain to you better how a TTS works, we will use Woord, since we think it’s the tool that better adapts to this type of content you want to make.
To use it, you need to:
1. Go to www.getwoord.com and select “Online reader,” or download the Chrome extension to your computer.
2. On the whiteboard, write your text, then choose the gender, language, speed, and format.
3. When finished, click ‘Speak It’ and double-check that everything is in order.
4. Once you’re happy with the result, download it to your computer.
Once you have it downloaded, you can insert it into any video you want. And that’s it, you’ll get your product demo with just a few steps.

If You Also Don’t Have A Camera…
You may do this by using OneImageVideo and uploading the photo of your choosing as well as the music you created using Woord. The website will show you a movie created from these two files.
With just a few simple steps, you may publish videos to any platform of your choosing and increase your product’s promotion without having to film anything or have high-tech equipment at your disposal.
