Why Your Business Needs Video (Even If You Think It Doesn’t)

scottadaptivestudios



Let’s be honest: We live in a world where cats have personal brand managers, toddlers go viral for eating lemons, and somehow, an 8-second clip of a dancing potato can get more views than your entire website does in a year.

Meanwhile, your business? Still relying on that same old “About Us” page that no one actually reads.

It’s time to face the facts: Your business needs video. And not just any video—engaging, high-quality, attention-grabbing video that makes people say, “Wow, I need this in my life.”

Still not convinced? Let’s break it down.

1. People Have the Attention Span of a Goldfish (Or Less)

In the grand battle of your business vs. the internet, you have about 8 seconds to grab someone’s attention. That’s less time than it takes to sneeze and find a tissue.

Text-heavy websites? Boring.Static images? Meh.A well-produced, engaging video? BOOM. Now you’ve got their attention.

A great video can stop the scroll, hold attention, and actually make people remember you. And let’s be real—if a dog wearing sunglasses can get millions of views, your brand deserves a shot too.

2. Google Loves Video (And You Love Google, Right?)

Here’s a wild fact: Websites with video are 53 times more likely to show up on the first page of Google.

Yes, you read that right. FIFTY. THREE. TIMES.

Google sees video content and says, “Ah yes, this website is clearly the Beyoncé of the internet. Let’s rank it higher.” Meanwhile, your text-only page gets left behind like a MySpace account in 2025.

Moral of the story? Want better search rankings? Make a video.

3. Your Customers Are Watching Videos—Lots of Them

Ever wonder what people do all day? The answer: They watch videos.

📌 YouTube? 2.7 billion users.📌 TikTok? 1.5 billion users.📌 Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn? All pushing video content like it’s Black Friday.

If your business isn’t creating videos, you’re basically whispering in a room full of people shouting with megaphones. And let’s face it—megaphones win.

4. Video Sells (Even If You’re Not a Salesperson)

Hate selling? Same.

Good news: A great video does the selling for you.

🎬 A product demo video? Shows people exactly how amazing your product is.🎬 A customer testimonial video? Builds instant trust (because people believe other people).🎬 An explainer video? Answers common questions so you don’t have to.

In fact, 84% of people say they’ve been convinced to buy something after watching a brand’s video. So basically, a good video = a silent, charming, 24/7 salesperson that never asks for a lunch break.

5. Video Builds Trust (And Trust = More Sales)

Let’s be real: Nobody trusts a faceless brand.

Would you rather buy from:❌ A company with zero personality, robotic emails, and stock photos from 2008?✅ A brand with fun, relatable, human-centered video content that makes you feel like you actually know them?

People buy from brands they trust. And trust is built when you show up in a real, authentic way—whether that’s through behind-the-scenes footage, customer stories, or even just a friendly face saying, “Hey, we get it, and we’re here to help.”

6. Video Is Shareable (And Free Marketing Is the Best Marketing)

Here’s the beauty of video: People love sharing it.

Nobody forwards a boring PDF. But a hilarious, insightful, or heartwarming video? That gets sent to friends, family, group chats, and the random coworker who still sends memes from 2016.

And every share means:🎥 More brand awareness🎥 More potential customers🎥 More chances to go viral (because let’s be honest, we all secretly dream about that)

7. Video Works Everywhere (Like a Marketing Swiss Army Knife)

Still not convinced? Let’s talk versatility.

A single, well-made video can be:📌 Used on your website (for better engagement)📌 Posted on social media (for more visibility)📌 Included in emails (because video boosts click-through rates by 300%!)📌 Played at events (so you don’t have to awkwardly explain your business 50 times)📌 Turned into ads that actually convert

One video. Endless possibilities.

Final Thoughts: Just Make the Video Already

If you’ve made it this far and you’re STILL thinking, “Eh, I don’t think my business needs video,” let me ask you this:

Would you rather…📌 Keep struggling to stand out in a sea of content?📌 Or finally grab attention, build trust, and actually grow your business with video?

The answer is pretty clear.

🎬 It’s time to stop thinking about video and start making it. Whether it’s a brand story, a product demo, or just a fun, engaging piece of content—your business needs video, and we’re here to help.
