First let’s start with some raw data; about one hundred million people watch internet videos every single day and the average viewer spends almost seventeen minutes watching advertisements a month. That may not seem like much but when one stops to consider that most ads are between thirty and ten seconds that gives that number some more perspective.

According to dazeinfo simply presenting your product or service in a video format will increase your potential customers understanding by seventy-four percent. This is particularly true for consumers who are in the millennial age demographic on down who respond very well to information delivered in a quick, concise, and engaging manner.
