THE POWER OF ANIMATION & VIDEO PRODUCTION MARKETING

The old saying is 'a picture is worth a thousand words'. Today's pictures include videos, animations, augmented realities, and virtual realities. These pictures are used to tell a story and share information about a product or a service.

We call this video marketing and this content is currently the most viewed and in-demand form of marketing content, producing the highest percentage of return on investment (ROI). Video content helps to tell your brand's story, educate your viewers about new products or services, or showcase your facility to build awareness about your capabilities. Information received via videos and animations stick in a viewer's mind and brings you new customers, partners, and potential employees.

Numbers do not lie. Among all media, video content is the most effective. Video marketing campaigns are getting 66% more qualified leads than other types of marketing, and marketers are seeing 64% of consumers make a purchase when a video is displayed on their homepage.

Such videos can be used to introduce a new employee to the ins and outs of your company and operations, making people proud to be a part of the team and building loyalty from the get-go.

If your video is intended for a more direct audience, you have options like flash drives, video brochures, and PowerPoint presentations.

You may showcase informational product videos at many events, like trade shows or company meetings. Face-to-face meetings with a client can also be a great place to showcase something new with your company (even during a happy hour meetup). A quick 30-second video can be a great introduction.

Video marketing can be used anyplace, anytime. Find what works best for your audience and align that with your marketing strategy. You will be shocked by the results.
