The internet is already replacing your old television. Marketers who are savvy online are taking their products to the Internet via video, and they are earning tons as we speak.

The statistical rise of video use by companies in their marketing campaigns has in fact burgeoned from 63% in 2017 to 81% in 2018, then a sudden increase to 87% in 2019.

When you scrutinize the entire digital marketing architecture, you will be surprised to find out that video marketing is one of the leading and most subscribed content types as it leads by 76%, placing its counterparts (photos, illustrations, infographics, podcasts, live streaming, mobile apps, etc.) far behind.

 

Video Is Everywhere

 

The ubiquitous video is just about everywhere.

It has pervaded all aspects of life from home, school, work, and even leisure. There is no other way of conveying an important marketing message across than through video platforms. If you want to be taken seriously, start with a serious video marketing campaign.

Did you know that there are approximately 85% of American users who turn to videos on a daily basis 24/7? It is estimated by the year 2022, videos will comprise 82% of all consumer internet traffic.

 

More and more people are resorting to videos to answer a question, offer a solution, market a product, and do almost everything. It works because a video is so much easier to view and absorb than reading a full-length report or article.
