When it comes to getting (and keeping) consumer attention, there’s little doubt video does the job. Video marketing is bigger than ever, with online video accounting for a staggering 50% of mobile web traffic.
Remember that on a mobile device, video takes up the whole screen, so you can almost guarantee you have their full attention. With large amounts of text your customers can quickly lose focus, a video helps to get the same message across in a lot less time. A video can be a great tool for making a memorable impression. For example, this video Perlow Productions created for Cloudnexa. The goal was to create lots of BUZZ in advance of a big trade show.
Using videos is a proven way of increasing trust in your brand. In many cases a video is a far greater way to showcase the benefits of your product than plain text alone, a video makes a welcome change for most. According to Forbes, 59% of executives would rather watch video than read text. That’s why West-Ward Pharmaceuticals came to Perlow Productions to create this Overview video.
Thinking about using video marketing? Here are some reasons why you should start:
- Video marketing improves email campaigns – Using the word “video” in an email subject line can increase open rates by 19%.
- Video marketing increases the time people spend on your site – Visitors spend 2 minutes longer browsing websites with video than those without.
- Video marketing increases your search ranking – If you want to increase your search ranking, a video is a great way to achieve it. Research by Forrester found that having a video on a web page makes it 53x more likely to appear on the first page of Google. How much value can you put on that?
- Video marketing helps make purchase decisions – In a survey by swimwear boutique, over 90% of shoppers surveyed found video useful in making purchase decisions
These are just some of the benefits of using video in your online marketing.
