Case Study: Go Girls

Explainer Video Case Study
Go Girls: Here to ensure all women with gynaecological cancers receive the support they truly deserve.
The team at Go Girls approached us to create three explainer videos to promote their charity. They raise awareness of all gynaecological cancers and campaign for earlier diagnostics and improved treatments.
Our team are always delighted with how the Go Girls videos turn out, and we take pride in helping such an excellent charity spread their awareness through video.
Did the final versions of your videos meet the expectations?
"GO Girls have worked with Squideo for a number of years now; we were delighted with our final animations on both PARP and Ovarian Cancer – Hannah is 'our superstar'.”
Why do explainer videos work so well for Gogirls?
"GO Girls often have quite complex material to present. Our job is to ensure this is written in a way which people will understand – explainer videos help to lift this complexity and translate it into something which reaches a much wider audience in an understandable format."
We have worked together for a few years, what keeps you coming back to Squideo?
"Hannah; great customer service – just lovely people to work with. You are “ours”."
Do you have anything else you'd like to mention about working with us?
"Just really enjoy working with Squideo and the team – you are responsive, professional, engaging and fun."
A big thank you to Hilary Maxwell- Founder of Go Girls

Struggling to turn website visitors into actual customers? You’re not alone. High traffic means nothing if confused users leave without converting. Whether it’s unclear messaging, overwhelming copy, or a lack of instant clarity; these issues silently kill conversions. In fact, most visitors decide whether to stay or bounce in under 10 seconds. That’s where explainer videos come in. They simplify, clarify, and sell. Below, you’ll discover five proven strategies to fix low CVR with video, all designed to keep users engaged, informed, and ready to take act 1. Hold Attention Instantly: The 10‑Second Rule Most UX studies highlight that website visitors often bounce from a page in just 10–20 seconds unless they’re presented with a clear value proposition immediately. Explainer videos solve that by offering a play button - a low commitment invitation. On average, 79% of users prefer watching a video over reading text, and 97% say the right explainer helped them better understand a product. Action Tip: Place your explainer video above the fold and keep it to 60 seconds or less. That time frame aligns with best practices and keeps users engaged. 2. Cut Through Overload by Simplifying Complex Ideas When visitors don't understand what you're offering, they leave. Explainer videos work because visuals and narration stick better than text. In fact, viewers retain 95% of a message from a video versus only 10% from reading. They also help unpack intricate information, like SaaS features or internal processes, which might otherwise overwhelm. Action Tip: Use animation to highlight how your product solves a problem or improves life, not just what it does. 3. Build Trust Quickly Without Walls of Text Trust is a key conversion driver. When people land on your site, they want answers fast. They’re not looking to scroll through paragraphs to figure out what you do. They want clarity and confidence. That’s why explainer videos are so powerful. They build trust by simplifying your message and delivering it in a way that’s easy to understand and hard to forget. Brands using explainer videos report up to an 81% boost in sales conversions, and some see support tickets drop by over 50%, because the video handles the heavy lifting upfront. There's real science behind it, too. Studies show that people retain information better when it’s delivered through both visuals and audio. An explainer video does exactly that, combining clean animation with clear narration to connect faster and stick longer. If trust is the barrier, video is your shortcut. 4. Seamlessly Guide Viewers to Take Action Explainer videos should end with a clear and compelling CTA. After 90 seconds of content, viewers are primed to act. Videos don’t just engage, they drive deeper attention. Landing pages with video keep visitors on-site longer, increase click-throughs, and boost conversions. Action Tip: Combine your video with a strong visual CTA right below, like “Book a Demo” or “Watch the Next”. 5. Multiply Touchpoints, Multiply Conversions Explainer videos don’t live on landing pages alone. Deploy them across email campaigns, social ads, pitch decks, and internal comms - honestly the list goes on! One study shows that personalised videos in outreach emails can lead to 5× higher open rates and 8× more replies. Action Tip: Reuse your core 60‑second explainer in trimmed formats for LinkedIn, YouTube prereels, and support libraries. Explainer videos aren’t just a marketing accessory, they’re high-conversion powerhouses. When done with clarity, creativity, and strategic placement, they become your silent salesperson. Squideo’s style is clean 2D visuals, a flair for storytelling , and a rhythm that keeps viewers watching. Got a brief ready? Share it with us today for a free , no-pressure quote.
