As William Shakespeare once said, "All the world's a stage," he couldn't have been more right! In today's fast-paced digital era, videos are the center stage of attention. They are the champions of engagement, the kings of storytelling, and the sultans of conversions. Whether it's a product launch, a corporate presentation, or a social media post, videos have the power to weave magic and create an emotional connection with the audience.
Then, without further ado, let’s fasten our seatbelts and get ready to take a wild ride through the world of video marketing. Buckle up, because this is going to be one heck of a journey!
Why Reliable Video Marketing Stats?
The topic of this piece is “Reliable Video Marketing Stats”. “Why reliable,” you may ask.
In this era of fake news and AI content, finding stats that are real can be like finding molehill on a mountain. During our own research, we came across the wild west of unreliable information with “sources” that didn’t have the mentioned figures. They’re just a figment of someone’s imagination. But still, they get posted, cited, and reposted so many times that wheat and chaff start looking the same.
Other times, the figures are so outdated that the information may no longer be relevant. Just think of it, how good is a pre-pandemic stat in a post-pandemic scenario, wherein everything from user adoption to content consumption to customer proclivities are completely different? But stat magnets even mention facts that came out of studies dating back more than a decade. How relevant is that going to be today, when nearly every facet of life has changed across the globe?
Take the stat “video generates 1200% more shares than text and image content combined” as an example. It has been featured in blogs as recent as 2023 and several credible sources of information such as Influencer Marketing Hub, Brightcove, and Forbes, Some mention G2 as the true source. Others, Brightcove. The true source could not be found. But it’s for sure that it dates back at least to 2015.
The fact that it is still being cited without a trace of skepticism raises questions about the integrity of some sources.
We decided to change that by creating a dataset you can rely on to make informed decisions. We’ve tried to keep it as recent as possible (Note: a few sources are still a couple of years old but this is a constantly updating blog. So, the relevant data will be fleshed out as new information emerges.)
