Why Use Video Marketing?

Why Video Marketing?
Because of its ability to inform, entertain, motivate and inspire, video is one of the best ways to build your brand, engage new customers and improve your search engine optimization. With approximately 500 million viewers per month, YouTube is currently the second largest search engine on the planet proving that customers like and are looking for video. Statistics show that video helps customers engage with your site more effectively and spend more time on your site once they get there.

Video Gets You Ahead of Your Competition

Multimedia content has a big impact on your company’s credibility. For instance, consumers are more likely to retain information when it’s alongside some form of visual medium. According to a recent survey by Animoto, “71 percent of consumers say that videos leave a positive impression of a company.” Cisco estimates 80 percent of consumer Internet traffic will be made up of online video by 2019.

Video Increases Customer Engagement.
Social networking sites such as Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook (to name a few), have the ability to provide video to massive audiences and increase customer engagement because we like, comment and share on the things we find helpful, entertaining or informative. Some social networks even have the ability to target specific types of customers or industries making video an excellent way of marketing and communicating with your customers.
