Animated videos are a game-changer
As attention spans shrink, getting people to focus and listen is no easy feat…. Everyone’s scrolling, multitasking, or just plain busy. To be honest, people really can’t be bothered with anything online that isn’t engaging within the first 5-10 seconds. So, how do you make them stop and actually notice your business? The answer: animated video. They grab attention, explain ideas, and boost engagement like nothing else. You’ve probably seen them—those fun, colourful clips or short 90 second explainers that make even the most boring topics seem interesting. They’re not just fun to watch (though that helps!). They’re a secret weapon for businesses of all shapes and sizes. They can be used for everything from online marketing to internal presentations and pitches and can blend in seamlessly with your branding. Here’s 5 reasons why you need one:

1. They make the complicated simple
Got a product or service that’s tough to explain? No problem. Animation turns your ideas into visuals that anyone can understand. Think of it as storytelling on steroids—it’s clear, fun, and gets the point across in seconds.
2. They’re total attention magnets
In a sea of ads, static images, and endless text, animated videos pop. Bright colours, cool transitions, and snappy scripts? Yeah, they’ll keep people watching. And once they’re hooked, they’re way more likely to remember you.
3. They show off your brand’s personality
Want to look modern? Quirky? Professional but approachable? Animation lets you design everything—characters, colors, music—to match your vibe. It’s like giving your brand its own voice, and people love that.

“Stop thinking of ‘video marketing’ as this separate entity that is optional for your business. A video is an effective form of communication that needs to be integrated into each and every aspect of your existing marketing efforts”
James Wedmore – Mind Your Business Podcast
4. They’re easy on the wallet (and your schedule)
Forget expensive shoots, camera crews, and rescheduling because the weather’s bad. Animated videos skip all that hassle. Plus, it’s super easy to update them if your product changes or you want to refresh your message.
5. They can be watched almost everywhere
From Instagram to your website, animated videos fit in perfectly. They’re short enough for social media but impactful enough to pitch your business in a meeting. And bonus—they’re super shareable.
