 For quite some time now, video has been steadily rising in popularity for online content. The number of websites that feature video content has been growing, and more businesses have begun to adopt it as a vital part of their marketing strategies. If you've been considering whether video marketing is right for your business, here are some pros and cons for you to consider.
Pros Entertaining and Attention-Grabbing Internet users are consuming more video content than ever before. For many people, watching a video is preferable to reading a blog post or consuming other types of content. High Engagement and Conversion Rates Adding a video, or in some situations, even just the word "video", increases conversion rates staggeringly. Video content gets the highest levels of engagement compared to other types of posts. Limitless Creative Potential The video format allows for businesses to convey so much information to the viewer, with complete flexibility of style, tone, and message. Cons Time-Consuming Production It will take longer to plan and produce a video than it would to deliver other types of marketing content. Video production has to go through several stages before it's complete, which means results can take longer for companies that handle video production in-house. Costly Overhead Buying or renting video equipment can be expensive, and there are costs to consider beyond the day of shooting, such as scriptwriting and hiring the cast. Ad-Skipping Making marketing videos just won't cut it; what you need is great marketing videos. Otherwise, many people will choose to skip ads whenever possible. In order to get your content seen by the maximum number of people, you will need to create captivating content that they will want to watch to the end.
