The Impact of Video-Video email messages generate 2-3 times higher click rates than static emails.-Consumers who watch product videos are 85% more likely to buy than those who don’t watch.-In store sales increased 6% when retailers provided online videos for their products.-A minute of video equals 1.8 million words-People remember 20% of what they hear, 40% of what they see, and 70% of what they see and hear.

Video Trend-In 2011, 45% of small businesses are growing their budget for online video (17% in 2010).

In SummaryMany hospitals are complacent or scared of change. Pet parents need more education about their pet’s needs. Retail outlets and online pharmacies are becoming more competitive. Allow technology to work for you to communicate with clients more often, more efficiently and more effectively. It takes consistency from the entire team to make a change.
