Whether it’s popular unboxing videos, how-to-guides, podcast interviews, or influencer endorsements, YouTube videos are now one of the biggest and most successful 21st-century marketing tools.
More than 2 billion people visit YouTube every month. That’s one-third of all internet users. And 73% of them say they’re more likely to buy after watching YouTube videos showing how a product or service works. Overall, YouTube videos increase the chances of a sale by a massive 144%
And here’s the best part. Only a fraction of small businesses are harnessing the power of YouTube. In the USA, the number is as low as 9%. So getting your content on the video-sharing platform is a great way to front-run the competition.
