Unlike bricks-and-mortar stores, ecommerce businesses like yours face a particular challenge in closing the sale: Your customers can’t hold and feel the products they’re shopping for.

There’s a reason YouTube is the number 2 search engine, behind only Google. Modern humans are visual creatures, and we love few things as much as video. Faces, voices, movement and music grab and keep our attention more than mere words on a screen can. That’s why product videos, done well, successfully showcase what you’re offering and why customers should buy from you. When you need an edge in ecommerce, or when you’ve got a great new product to showcase, think about video.
