Start Your New Normal on the Right Foot

I don’t have to expound on the countless challenges that organizations and industries experienced in 2020. Nearly everything about it became a variable, clouding the market with historic levels of uncertainty.

But it’s the companies that learn from those trials and tribulations that stand to gain the biggest advantage, particularly as they strategize for their new normal. As we discuss in our ebook, video was already a difference-maker before 2020, and will only continue to flourish with time.

Statistics Don’t Lie

Of course, I could continue waxing poetic on the importance of video to any sales and marketing strategy but, as the old saying goes, the proof is in the pudding. And nothing provides better proof than statistics and research.

  • Viewers retain 95% of a message conveyed through video
  • Just using the word “video” in an email subject line increases open rates by nearly 20%
  • Video drives two-thirds greater qualified leads
  • Customers prefer video over any other form of content
