6 Reasons Why Businesses are Investing in Cartoon Videos
What is a cartoon explainer video?
A cartoon video is a short video production that can use cartoon-style characters to help a business clearly explain their products or services to customers. They can be used as an introduction to a company’s offer or a way of explaining the specifics of a particular product or service.
Cartoons can be memorable and appealing and can be a cost-effective way to say what you want to say to customers in the very short window you have their attention. A cartoon video is an excellent way to make a good impression on a potential customer, so it is important to get it right the first time.
Why create a cartoon video?
A cartoon allows you to be creative and explain your products and services in a way that will appeal to most people, especially those with a short attention span. Cartoon videos are perfect for saying what you need to in an easy-to-understand and concise way.
A cartoon video will make you stand out from your competitors and can be highly effective, delivering you with an excellent ROI. They are generally far cheaper to produce than a live action video and can easily be updated.
If you want to tell your story effectively and boost your brand and conversions, then a cartoon video could be right for you. Thousands of companies have put their faith in us to create cartoon videos that help customers quickly make their mind up about their products and services.
What makes a good cartoon video?
A successful cartoon video is not only one that captures the attention of a viewer (and potential customer) but also converts well. It should deliver your message as well as providing a call to action in terms of what the viewer should do next having watched your video.
When you start out planning your video, you need to have a good idea of what would constitute a good return on the money you have spent on the video and marketing it. Maybe your aim is just brand awareness, or perhaps you want to promote a specific product or service. With clear and achievable goals for your video, you won’t properly be able to measure its success.
A good cartoon video will be one that achieves your aims, whether that be brand awareness, or promoting a specific product or service.
A successful cartoon video is one that is:
- Engaging, clear and understandable
- Not be overly long or it would run the risk of being a complete turn off.
- Outlines the benefits of using your product/service
- A good call to action for the customer
Cartoon videos are a great way to inject some personality into something that could otherwise be quite dull. They can make your company appear more real and trustworthy to a potential customer.
What makes a good cartoon video maker?
Choosing a cartoon video company shouldn’t be purely about cost as a low quality cartoon video will actually do more harm than good for your brand. You should use a cartoon video maker who produces a quality product that will hold the attention of customers.
A good cartoon video production company will have transparent costs, so there are no hidden costs tacked on later. Costs such as script writing, revisions and other amends may be charged for additionally, making what at first seemed a bargain less appealing.
You should use a company that deals with video production themselves rather than outsourcing to a third party, as having to deal with a third party can lead to additional work for you and delay. Choose a company, like Squideo, with a
good reputation
so you can be sure that your cartoon video production is in capable hands of a company that has knowledge of the sector in which you operate.
How effective are cartoon videos?
Cartoon video has the potential to grab people and then hold their attention, so you can have the opportunity to properly explain your offer. Most people will naturally prefer to watch a video to understand a product rather than leafing through a brochure or other promotional literature.
The fact that the attention span of people is generally shrinking means that video can be highly effective. If you have a product or service that can be difficult to explain, a cartoon video can sometimes be the most effective.
Engagement with a cartoon video can boost time on your site and reduce bounce rates, while video shown elsewhere, such as on social media or in emails, can be a great driver of traffic to your own website. But it’s what happens once someone views your cartoon video that is the true measure of an effective video. If your cartoon increases brand awareness, or encourages sign ups or sales, then that has to be viewed as a success.
How much is a cartoon video likely to cost?
Cartoon videos can be a real cost-effective way of getting your message across, but the actual cost you pay will depend on several factors. The length of a video and the complexity of it will have a major bearing on the overall cost.
If your cartoon video is aimed purely at increasing brand awareness, then a short video of around a minute might suffice. However, if you are looking to explain the finer details of a product or service then it is possible that you may need a cartoon video of greater length. A video for social media might be considerably shorter.
Generally, the more complex your cartoon video requirements, the greater the cost, and if you are needing your video created quickly, this can increase the costs significantly. You also would have to take into account other factors such as if you are providing a script for the video or are having one produced for you.
How can I get the best return from my cartoon video?
A good cartoon video can be an effective part of your marketing efforts when used to its full potential. Your video can be viewed in multiple places, including your own website, social media such as Youtube and Facebook, and in emails. It is most effective when used across all these platforms.
