Illustrate your story.

Stand Out from the Crowd and Have Your Message Heard

It is a constant, uphill battle to find effective ways to deliver your message to potential customers.

We’re Surrounded by Marketing Messages

Most Americans are exposed to up to 10,000 ADVERTISEMENTS per day! With more and more messages vying for attention, you need to find a way to rise above the crowd.

Our Attention Spans are Shrinking

The average attention span is about EIGHT SECONDS. This is down from 12 seconds in 2000. That’s less than a goldfish! So, not only do you need to capture attention, you need to find a way to hold that attention.

Some Concepts Require Time to Explain

Some products or services require MORE TIME TO EXPLAIN in order to demonstrate their unique value. So in addition to capturing and holding attention, often times you need to simultaneously convey detailed or complex information.

Get More Engagement with an Explainer Video

An Ideal “Reach and Teach” Solution

Our whiteboard explainer videos use animated hand-drawn illustrations with accompanying narration to simplify your message and deliver it in an engaging way. Illustrations provide a novel and unique visual component to explainer videos and help them stand apart from “live” video. Animation adds an additional level of engagement, allowing more time for a message to be “unpacked”. Custom-drawn illustrations ensure that you’re getting the best visual to represent the concept being discussed, something stock illustrations have a hard time doing.

Video Content is More Popular Than Ever

Whiteboard explainer videos are a great way to leverage the many benefits of video content to teach potential customers about your product or service, and ultimately increase sales.
