Oh, the dreaded video marketing!
As you peddle on the internet for hours on end, you’ll see a video, after video, after video from various personalities, businesses, and even kids now! It seems every 5 or so posts on Facebook you’ll see another company (Sponsored) marketing their new thing-of-a-jig. Often, you stop and think, “why yes, I need those new, whatever video I’m watching at the moment, thing right now!” For me, it’s those new non-stick pans that are everywhere. Even being sponsored by a famous chef now. “I need them!” For business owners, or marketing directors, have you ever stopped for a second and thought, why so many videos? How did they make that? Does my company need to start making videos? The answer to the last question is, YESSSS! In 2022, you definitely need to start adding video content to your marketing strategy, and here’s why.
Did you know that in 2019, online users spent a weekly avg of 6 hours and 48 mins watching videos (Limelight, 2019)? And that was in 2019! Can you imagine what it’s like in 2022? This means, more and more people want to see videos as they scroll through social media. Think about it, how many times have you caught yourself scrolling through Facebook or Instagram and are constantly stopping at videos? On the reverse, how many times do you skip over images or text-only posts?
Here’s another, a 2018 State of Social Video Marketer Trends report showed that 73% of consumers claim that they have been influenced by a brand’s social media presence and videos when making a purchasing decision. And a survey conducted by Wyzowl in 2018 shows that nearly 8 out of 10 users made purchases after watching a product video! THAT IS HUGE!!! If that doesn’t make you want to use video content as a part of your marketing strategy, I don’t know what will.
And last, a survey showed that 88% of video marketers were satisfied with the ROI of their video marketing efforts on social media (Animoto, 2018).
