It’s no secret that video is king in 2015 when it comes to online marketing, and that trend is only expected to grow in 2016 and 2017. Video is easier to capture people’s attention and keep them engaged. Forrester Research states that a one minute video has the same value as 1.8 million words and when marketers included a video in an email, the click-through rate increased by 200-300%. That’s HUGE! With approximately 100 million Internet users watching video online there’s massive marketing opportunity for business. The importance of an explainer video for your company is growing exponentially as the market continues to embrace video. What’s an explainer video? Here’s an description of what an explainer video is.
