Video Content Stats that Simply Can’t be Ignored

Apparently, even after video killed the radio star, it was far from finished with its takeover. Today, video commandeers the world of content marketing and communications- and people are listening (and watching). Video bestows dimension to your messaging. Video infuses tone, personality, action, and engagement; both capturing your viewers’ attention and reducing the risk of message misinterpretation.

Stats on the effectiveness of video marketing continue to drastically rise, landing this method of communication a heavy placement in almost every marketer’s content strategy. The proof is in the puddin’ with these credible and attention-commanding stats that simply cannot be overlooked.

According to Hubspot…

With product videos, you can see firsthand just how much air you will get when laced in Nike’s newest basketball high tops. A consumer feels more comfortable accepting a product’s claimed features when he/she can witness in video format.

Putting a video in an email leads to a 200-300% increase in click through rate. Oh great, not another email. Many marketing messages communicated through emails are merely skimmed at best. Video is an effective “call to action” booster and your email is less likely to get dismissed into the abyss of neglected emails.

Video is shared 1200% more than both links and text combined. The wonderful ripples of content marketing- digital sharing. Sharing is caring…and the circulation of promotional content gives every marketer all the feels. “Influencers” drape your message with credibility and expand the reach of your message with a contagious liking.

86% of video marketers say that video has increased traffic to their website. You got em’ just where you want em’. Which paves way to this relative powerful stat. Putting a video on a landing page increases conversion to 80%.

The impact of video content for any business is obvious. Whether it be created with a purpose of brand storytelling, client testimonial, or product demo, a film strategy will allow a business to connect with their audience on an elevated level.
