5 Benefits of Explainer Videos

1. Increase Conversion Rate
According to Internet Retailer, up to 85% of people are more likely to buy a product if they first saw an explainer video. This helped Rypple (who recently sold to SalesForce) increase conversion rates by 20%. CrazyEgg added an explainer video to their homepage and increased conversion rates by 64%!

2. Better Google Results
Websites with video are 50 times more likely to be ranked on Google's first page. What do you think people will click on first: the text link or the ever-inviting video thumbnail? That's right. The thumbnail! In fact, your video is 41% more likely to get clicked than a text listing. Now that you're on the front page of Google, more people will watch your video and be totally stoked to buy your product. You earn money. Sales are good.

3. Your Perfect Pitch Every Time
There's nothing worse than not knowing how to tell people what you do in a way that they get it immediately. An explainer video helps you give your perfect pitch all over the world at any time of the day. You don't even have to be there! And if you choose the right explainer video partner, you may just end up with your perfect company story that you can use in pitches, on your website, email marketing and more.

4. Easily Shareable
Now that you've got your perfect pitch, you can easily share your story with the world. 70% of internet users are watching online video, so go ahead and captivate them with your awesome business! It's now way easier to share because you have a video you can upload to Wistia along with YouTube, Vimeo and more, that can easily be sent to anyone and viewed by thousands, and if you really strike internet gold, millions. You can also bring it with you to meetings, conferences and more. You'll never have to worry about messing up your pitch again.

5. ROI
Explainer video companies can produce videos at much better rates than agencies. Take advantage and watch a small spend turn into a great, gigantic return. Dropbox spent $50,000 to tell their story through an explainer video. It resulted in 5 million new customers and over $24M in revenue. CrazyEgg stepped up their revenue $21,000 a month. What will your success story be?
