These are metrics that will make you \u2018look good\u2019 and \u2018feel-good\u2019 about your marketing efforts but do not give insights about your business. An example would be video views. You want to further break this metric down, for instance, the demographics of the people who watched the video and whether they watched the entire video.<\/p>\n<p>Before you begin to measure the performance of your video, you need to have set clear business and marketing objectives. You also need to understand the audience to whom you are communicating. Easily enough, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.veed.io\/learn\/best-video-editing-software-for-youtube\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">video creator<\/a> can help you reach your marketing objective could be increasing brand awareness or conversion, and your overall business goal could be increasing sales.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s delve more into metrics.<\/p>\n<h3>1. View count<\/h3>\n<p>These are the number of people who viewed your video. It is measured differently on different platforms. On Facebook, for example, a view is three seconds, while on Youtube a view is 30 seconds. This metric will be important if your goal is brand awareness.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Play rate<\/h3>\n<p>This metric refers to the number of people who actually pressed play and watched the video. This is a good measure of relevance and how much the video is captivating.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Engagement<\/h3>\n<p>This metric shows the amount of time the viewers watched your video, the number of replays and pauses, as well as the average watch time. This metric is a measure of relevance and video effectiveness. If you note that viewers close the video even before it ends, you get to add a call to action just before they close the video.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Social shares<\/h3>\n<p>This metric is again, a measure of relevance and how captivating the video is. This metric is good to track if your goal is brand awareness.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16598\" src=\"https:\/\/referralrock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/elite-mover-packing-dishes.jpg\" alt=\"elite-mover-packing-dishes\" width=\"751\" height=\"525\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/referralrock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/elite-mover-packing-dishes.jpg 751w, https:\/\/referralrock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/elite-mover-packing-dishes-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 751px) 100vw, 751px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/elitemover\/videos\/1308372039185933\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>5. Click-through rate<\/h3>\n<p>If your goal is to use a video to prompt a particular action, then this metric will come in handy. The message in the video should, therefore, be similar to the call to action that you are aiming at.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Conversion rate<\/h3>\n<p>This metric shows the number of clients, leads, or prospects that resulted from your video. How you interpret this metric is determined by the goal that you set for your business. If your goal was to get clients, then your conversion rate will be the number of clients that you get from your video. If the goal was to get people to take action, for instance, subscribe to your referral program, then your conversion rate will be the number of people who subscribed to your referral program.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Feedback<\/h3>\n<p>This may not seem like a part of metrics. Feedback comes in handy to help you know what consumers felt about your video, company, its presentation, and the areas that you need to improve on.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Subscribers<\/h3>\n<p>Subscribers can be seen as the number of customers your business is gaining. If you are gaining more customers than you are losing, then you are doing something right. If you notice that you are losing a significant number of customers, then you need to know why this is happening.<\/p>\n<h3>9. Drop-off point<\/h3>\n<p>This is where people stopped watching your video. Aim at people watching 100% of your video. Though this may be difficult to achieve, strive to ensure that people watch at least 50% of your video. Find out why people stop watching your video at a particular point. It could be that the video is too long, or the video is not captivating enough, or even that the introduction is too long.<\/p>\n<h2>In summary<\/h2>\n<p>Video marketing can be a great way to reach your customers and answer common questions easily. You may even find that adding video explainers to a FAQ section can be quite beneficial for customers, plus make it easy for your site to be found online (as video is great for driving curious customers).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visuals are great content and can help prepare people better for what to expect when moving.
