What is an explainer video?
The explainer style of video is designed to grab people’s attention and to communicate the value of the product in the shortest amount of time.
It should answer a fundamental question: what problem is the product trying to solve, and why would the viewer want to use it?
When and how use them?
An explainer video should hone in on pain points and present the product as the solution.
Most brands showcase explainer videos on landing pages, social media, blogs, ads, newsletters, or at trade shows and sales meetings.
