You’ve heard it a gazillion times: you have mere seconds to convert users who arrive from paid search. You know the drill… build landing pages with no extraneous copy or navigation, and make sure you drive to a bold form and call to action. Just get them to convert as fast as you can. So why would you ask your visitors to pause for 30 seconds and watch a video on your landing page? A whole bunch of reasons, actually....
6. Best of breed are doing it, and getting results
Retail case studies: “Users who stay to watch a video are
more likely to purchase!”
7. Wouldn’t you rather watch than read?
Your product or service needs to be explained
Minimizing a users‟ effort will improve conversion
8. Videos make you memorable
When someone is jumping between search results, you
want them to remember you
VS.
9. Videos make you memorable
A short engaging video will keep visitors around longer
and will help them remember your product or service
over the long term
11. Keep it short
◦ 30-60 seconds
Feature only your video & conversion element
◦ Simplify. Remove everything but the video and the form
12. Minimize text
Use infographics instead of text
Show your product in action
Encourage social sharing
13. Tell people what you want them to do
◦ At least two calls to action – one on the page, one at the
end of the video
Tell a story – it‟s not an infomercial
◦ It should be fresh and memorable so you are awarded
the users‟ time
