Thie following is more about explainer videos, whiteboarding, and marketing videos in general!

“Did you know that using explainer videos on your landing pages can increase conversion rates by as much as 80%? Explainer videos keep customers on your page longer giving your marketing message more time to sink in and ultimately creates the emotional relevance that converts clients.

Not all videos are created equal.

Let me put it this way, a marketing video is like the type of clothes you wear. You can’t wear the same outfit to go to a rock concert, a job interview, and your cousin’s wedding, right? Likewise, animated explainer videos come in all sorts of styles each tailored to different audiences.

Let’s take a look at some of the most popular a screencast video is a simple low-budget type of video that showcases how your product or service works — they’re more about education than branding but these work well for prospects who like to try before they buy.

Cartoon-style explainer videos are all about storytelling.

Your company is the hero who saves the day by solving your customers’ problem. They’re usually pretty funny and are great for humanizing your brand and building trust. The characters represent your various brand personas, so it’s important to know the gender age and interests of your target market. If you’re targeting end users, small businesses or startups, cartoon style videos are a great choice.

Whiteboard animation is a super engaging technique because the content is created in front of the viewer’s eyes. These videos are great for explaining complex information in a straightforward way and ideal if your marketing IT solutions or computer software motion graphics offer an elegant and engaging style for businesses with a more serious profile like financial institutions. You can even add some 3d animation to make the video more impressive.

Now you have a better idea of what kind of video could work for your landing page to convert like crazy! As for what to wear to your next pitch sorry, YumYum can’t help you there.” ~ YumYumVideos

Working with Cortex Marketing has been an outstanding experience. They completely rebuilt our website, making it professional, user-friendly, and helpful with our new branding. They also resolved the multiple domain listing issues we were struggling with, and enhanced our website content so that it better reflects who we are and what we do. Cortex brought much-needed continuity to our social media messaging, ensuring a consistent and professional presence across platforms. On top of that, their creative work has really elevated our marketing. They produced excellent testimonial videos, organized great team photos (even seamlessly adding in a staff member who couldn’t make it to the photo shoot), and created sharp graphics, like placing our NSMR logo on the various recycling bins, which added polish and credibility to our materials. Cortex Marketing goes above and beyond, and their attention to detail really shows. I would highly recommend their services to any business looking to strengthen its marketing presence. Will is the best and my forever go to when I need guidance! — Sheri Goesen, Office Manager, North Shore Metal Recycling

Will is very skilled at discovering the core purpose and values of my business. He knows the right questions to ask and when to dig for answers. I felt he overdelivered in our session and I walked away with a ton of value.

I have had multiple meetings with William at Cortex Marketing.  He has been extremely helpful in assisting me with clearly communicating what I want to say about my business.  This allowed me to focus on what I do and why I got into business in the first place, which was not to write about it.  I really appreciate his fresh perspective and taking this weight off my shoulders.  Besides that, he is great to work with.  Thanks again, William, I look forward to the next time we get together !
