As a brand you need to be present on digital channels not only to make your presence felt but also to engage with your consumers. But, being present on digital channels is not enough. What differentiates your brand <!--more-->from your competition is the kind of content you put out there. Animated video contentcould be an option worth considering. Here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Takes you back in time<\/strong><br \/>\nAnimated videos have the potential to strike an emotional chord with the consumer since the characters in the video remind them of their childhood (the age at which they used to watch cartoons is the age they were more receptive to learning). That\u2019s why brands can achieve tangible results by using animated videos in their communication strategy.<br \/>\nAlso long text e-mailers\/online write ups with heavy information is going out of style the tech-savvy, busy consumer &#8211; a sleek video with all the information that can be consumed on the go is what consumers now prefer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Long term Impact <\/strong><br \/>\nAnimated videos are attention-grabbing and eye-catching. They use bright colors, simple logic and constant movement to keep the viewers glued to the screen. People instantly feel the urge to watch \u2013 just like infants and children are drawn to watching cartoons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Adaptive <\/strong><br \/>\nAnimated videos are flexible. Tweaks can be made to the video as a brand grows or expands. Animated videos don&#8217;t require rehiring a production team or traveling for miles to a filming location.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0An apt brand development tool <\/strong><br \/>\nAnimated videos easily incorporate color schemes, logos and brand images. Moreover, they deliver key branding messages clearly and creatively. Many small and medium size businesses today are selecting animated videos as their first pick for their marketing and branding strategy. Animated video helps these brand to stand out from the competition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Universal appeal <\/strong><br \/>\nAnimation appeals to everyone. Ananimated character, unlike humans, doesn&#8217;t have a real race, age or nationality. As the world wide web turns into a global market place, brands could opt for animated videos to appeal to their online audience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Age no bar <\/strong><br \/>\nAnimated videos are simple, to the point and appeal to people from across age groups &#8211; just like ice-cream, these videos are evergreen! From toddlers to teens from adolescents to adults everyone enjoys good animated videos.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Image building tool <\/strong><br \/>\nBrands sometimes shy away from investing in animated videos, as they underestimate the brand recall that a good animated video could have. Animated characters in many videos stay in the minds of the consumer longer than a brand ambassador.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Potential to go viral <\/strong><br \/>\nThe sheer simplicity of these videos make them likable and sharable and coupled with the fact that they appeal to consumers from across age groups, gives them the potential to go viral on digital.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re thinking about an animated video, contact us at <a href=\"mailto:v@ripplemedia.co\">v@ripplemedia.co.<\/a> We currently have an offer of 10% off on our <a href=\"https:\/\/rippleanimation.com\/US\/pricing.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">published rates.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your consumers\u2019 behavior is rapidly evolving &#8211; they are consuming increasing amounts of content online.
