So it’s time to learn how videos can set you apart from your competition and start building ideas for your first business video.

By 2017 up to ¾ of all traffic on the web will be video. So it’s time to learn how videos can set you apart from your competition and start building ideas for your first business video.

Why business videos are effective:

• They get more attention: video is undoubtedly the preferred method of getting information on the web.  Studies show that video commands the most attention on Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs).  They are easy to understand and a visually appealing way of getting your information.      
• They keep your attention: it’s easy to lose a potential customer as they navigate your page and wade through your text-based content.  However, 65% of viewers that start watching a video watch more than ¾ of the video.  Visual content is engaging and keeps viewers wanting more.
• They deliver results: research indicates that 90% of consumers find video helpful in making their buying decisions.  More than any other content, video delivers the information and a level of comfort that consumers want when deciding to buy a product or service.  Don’t believe us?  Studies show that 46% of consumers take some sort of measureable business action after viewing a video.
• It’s the best bang for your buck: the majority of marketing experts assert that video has the highest ROI out of all the types of content.  With the advent of DSLR’s it became affordable to shoot high quality video for a fraction of the price.  A professionally shot and edited business video is now within reach of any small to medium sized business, and the returns can be impressive.
• They strengthen your brand: a stunning, high quality video speaks volumes about your business and you as a professional.  It shows you’re at the top of your game and your business is ahead of the curve.  It can also strengthen brand recognition and ultimately get people excited and engaged about what your business has to offer.
