Onboarding videos: a winning start!

Making a sale may be the end of one process, but it’s very much the beginning of another. It’s impossible to overstate the importance of customer onboarding. Effective customer onboarding is about properly and effectively welcoming new customers to your product or service, and setting them up with the knowledge and tools they need to succeed.

Whether you’re educating your customer about all the great features your app or product has, getting their account up and running or helping them assemble and use a physical product, onboarding videos are always a smart investment. They help make sure that all the time and resource you committed into winning your customers’ trust are maximised to full effect – by increasing satisfaction, retention, customer happiness and, ultimately, revenue!

Why use customer onboarding videos?

Improved customer satisfaction

First impressions really do count! Often, the difference between a new customer thinking ‘This is awesome!’ and ‘This isn’t what I expected,’ boils down to the information and support you provide them with – or fail to! – post-sale. Give them the right support with customer onboarding videos and forge lasting emotional connections with your new users.
Onboarding Videos
Increased loyalty

Increased customer retention

Successful onboarding is all about focusing on the initial experiences of your new customers. Our research has found that huge numbers of people have almost immediately returned products, or deleted software, because they simply weren’t given the tools to reach the point of maximum benefit quickly. Onboarding videos form the basis of a great, holistic onboarding experience – educating new users about the full benefits of your product, but also forming an instant emotional connection: creating delighted, loyal customers.

Customers  video!

Using video content in the customer onboarding process is a great choice because it’s constantly cited as a learning tool people widely prefer. Video content has a unique ability to hold user attention and cater to different learning styles which gives it an edge – just as it does with other types of marketing videos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about our service, us or how it all works? See a few of the most common questions we get below.

What are customer onboarding videos?

Customer onboarding videos are designed to welcome and upskill new customers – ultimately, to get them up and running with a new software tool, product or service, as quickly as possible. Video onboarding can take many forms, from a simple welcome video through to software demo videos, product walkthrough videos, and more detailed educational videos.

What are the benefits of onboarding videos?

Onboarding videos give new customers the information they need to unlock maximum benefit in the shortest time possible. This can help increase satisfaction and retention, improve review scores, generate referrals and generally optimise revenue. User onboarding gives your customers the power to steer their own journey with your product or service, which, as well as being great for them, also helps free up your customer support team resource.

How does onboarding users improve satisfaction and retention?

There’s nothing worse than ‘buyers remorse’: we’ve all experienced that sinking feeling of realising our new purchase is confusing, frustrating or hard to use. A solid customer onboarding process is a fantastic way to minimise the chances of this happening to your customers. Put simply, the better you’re able to onboard users, the higher your user engagement from day one. Companies that invest well in onboarding processes are invariably the best at going beyond customer satisfaction, and achieving customer delight!

How should I use my completed customer onboarding video?

Once your onboarding video is completed, there are almost unlimited ways to use it. We’ve seen some companies have great success by making their onboarding videos available in an on demand type knowledge portal, so they can learn at their own pace. It could be as simple as uploading it to YouTube and having it in a ‘User Onboarding’ playlist. Other companies might build video content into their customer workflow, treating them as interactive guides to help new users get up and running quickly.

Why does onboarding with video work better than other types of content?

Video has a unique ability to grab and hold user attention. By combining audio, visual and kinaesthetic elements, it creates a potent blend of different learning styles. It can also be revisited on-demand, making it a vital source of ongoing customer support. Using video in your onboarding process is a fantastic way to increase engagement, boost activation, and enhance the customer onboarding process. It invariably helps brands cut customer support costs, enhance the experience and increase client retention!

What are the keys to great user onboarding videos?

Based on our extensive experience, our top tip is to ‘Keep it simple!’ Be aware that the human attention span is limited: you need to give your users the most important bits that will give them the most value, most quickly. For products and services, focus initially on your most important features and key benefits. For software demos, start out with key tasks and functionality – the things that they’re going to use most, and will get them up and running quickly. Following these simple tips will make a big difference!

I want to make a series of onboarding videos. Can you do that?

Definitely, we can help you create a video series! Our team and process are really well set up to work on series’ of videos. Because we front load our fact finding process, we build a wealth of knowledge about your product, service or software tool. We also get a feel for your brand – design, tone of voice, animation style – and once these things are established, the process becomes easier and quicker, for both our team and yours, as we work through your series of onboarding videos.

I’m looking to onboard employees, not customers. Can Wyzowl help?

Absolutely! Check out our employee onboarding video page to discover our employee onboarding video service. Our videos welcome and nurture your new employees to help you supercharge employee retention.

Onboarding video production process

Making a video is a complex process. Our onboarding video production service makes it simple. Here’s how we create videos that get results for our clients!
Concepting

1. Briefing & Fact finding

We start the process with a period of careful planning and research. During this process, we pick your brains to make sure we understand your product/service/software tool, and your goals. We’ll ask you to complete a short brief form and set up a kickoff call to discuss and ask any questions we might have about this.

2. Script writing

Based on all this learning, we go ahead and create a script for your onboarding video: a document that lays out the voiceover on one side, and a text description of the action on screen on the other. We invite you to make unlimited comments and suggestions on this and we’ll work on it back and forth as many times as we have to until you’re totally delighted with it.

3. Storyboard

At the Storyboard stage, we create all the graphics for your video and present them for your feedback, scene-by-scene. Again, you’ll have the opportunity to provide unlimited feedback on the look and feel of your video at this point and we’ll work at it until you’re happy to sign off.

4. Animation

At this stage we bring the video to life. We record a professional voiceover track, source royalty free music and sound effects, and add the animated transitions and movement to the graphics you signed off at the Storyboard stage. We render the whole thing out as a video file and share this with you for you to review and feedback. We’ll make unlimited changes to the timings and transitions here until you’re totally happy with your video.
