  1. Better Consumer Engagement

Video’s gain consumer attention at a much higher rate than any other medium. Capturing attention might sound easy, but it is one of the most difficult things any brand or business can do.

With powerful videos in your toolbox, you can increase consumer engagement by leaps and bounds.

  1. Video is changing the tide for technology

Technology is manipulated by consumers. With more of them using their phone’s to communicate with the world around them, video consumption has been on the rise. And because of this, technologies are creating apps and tools that favor video-marketing.

  1. Better Optimization Opportunities

Video makes it easier to measure your click-through rates, drop off points, and the number of times a piece of content was viewed individually. A powerful feedback loop enables you to change your strategy and connect with your customers on a more personalized level.

  1. A Rise in Conversions

Above all, the most important reason to start using video in your content marketing plan is that video converts more customers. In fact, 71% of marketers say that video conversion rates outperform every other form of marketing content.
