1. Video Boosts Conversions and Sales

Video can also lead directly to sales. Studies show that 74% of users who watched an explainer-video about a product afterward bought it. So better start crafting your exciting product videos now!

 

2. Video Shows Great ROI

To get you even more excited, 83% of businesses say that video provides a good return on investment. Even though video marketing is not yet the easiest nor cheapest task, it pays off big time. Also, online video editing tools are constantly refining and becoming more affordable. And even your smartphone can make pretty decent videos already.

Another good news is that your videos don’t have to be perfect. It’s the content that subjects! Latest research shows that users are mostly put off by videos that don’t explain the product or service clearly enough. Low quality features and poor design didn’t matter nearly as much. So it’s fair to say that video is like pizza – when it’s bad, it’s still pretty good!

 

3. Video Builds Trust

Trust is the basis of conversions and sales. But building trust should be a goal on its own. The whole idea of content marketing is based on trust and making long-term relationships. Stop advertising and let the people come to you by providing them interesting and useful information.

 

4. Google Loves Videos

Videos allow you to increase the time spent by visitors on your site. Thus, lengthier exposure builds trust and signals search engines that your site has good content. Moovly gives us enormous statistics: You’re 53 times more likely show up first on Google if you have a video embedded on your website.
