Videos that sell!
There’s an old saying that goes: “Tell me, I forget; show me, I remember; involve me, I understand.” A great product demo video is all about involving your viewer. It goes beyond simple static product photography, and takes them deeply into the inner workings of the product. This might mean a live action video with a host or presenter giving the product demonstration, or it might mean using animation to demonstrate intricate product details with cross-sections, close ups and visual metaphors.
But either way, a product demo gives your viewer the closest possible experience to holding the product in their hands. They build customer confidence, and remove barriers to purchase. This makes product demo videos a highly attractive video type for online retailers – and plenty of other companies, too.

The result of our customer service
Here are just a few of the nice things our customers say about our product demo video production service.
Video: the ultimate demonstration tool
Explain complex products visually
Product demo videos have a lot in common with explainer videos. They’re an amazing tool for helping create that ‘lightbulb’ moment where a viewer can actually see and envisage how a product works. For example, you can use diagrams and cross-sections to demonstrate product qualities that aren’t necessarily visible to the naked eye.Enhance your buyer’s journey
Our research routinely shows that video is the most popular and engaging tool when it comes to learning about new products. When asked how they’d most like to learn about a product or service, 73% said they’d prefer to watch a short video. This compares to 11% who’d rather read a text-based article, website or post, 4% who’d like to view an infographic, 3% who’d rather download an ebook or manual, 3% who’d rather attend a webinar or pitch, and 3% who’d like a sales call or demo.Audio-visual elements
A demo video is a great tool because, with audio and visual elements, plus elements of movement, it addresses different learning styles. However your viewer likes to learn things, a demo video helps them do it.Why use product demo videos?
Build understanding
Whenever you’re selling a product online, one of the major limitations you face is that your audience can’t touch, feel or hold the product. It’s difficult to show them exactly how your product works. A demo video helps take them ‘inside’ the product, so you can showcase all the key benefits, and build the knowledge and confidence they need to help them, ultimately, make a purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to create a product demo?
We work to fixed turnarounds for our part of the process, but most projects involve some back-and-forth, feedback and amendments. The actual turnaround time from beginning to end can vary based on how quickly you’re able to provide feedback and how many rounds of changes are needed, but on a typical project it’s possible to get a finished video to you in as little as 4-6 weeks.What do I need to do before getting started with a demo video?
Before getting started make sure you watch a few product demo video examples and get a flavour for what you want.I need to demo a piece of software, can you do this?
Yes, we have an app demo service that’s perfect for demonstrating software. This uses screen recording. Check out the page here.

What makes a great demo video?
The best product demo videos share a number of things in common.
The right amount of detail
As much as you want to shout from the rooftops and showcase every last one of your product features, it’s an unfortunate truth that attention spans are short! Include enough information to get your viewer in the position you want them to be – excited, enthused, and ready to either buy, or at least find out more. Don’t spoil it with a video that’s boring, slow and overly long!Deliver an exciting showcase
A demo video is educational in nature – but it’s also part of your overall video marketing strategy, so don’t forget to market! Educate your target audience, yes, but also hype them up and put your best foot forward. An amateur, shoddy looking video doesn’t send a great signal to the world – so great demo videos are built around great visuals, and focus on the immense benefit created by your product.
Capture (and hold) attention
Video, in itself, is a great way to grab audience attention and there are ways to amplify this further – choose a great thumbnail, put the video in a prominent position, and use an attractive video player. Whether you hold attention comes down to the video content itself: particularly the pacing and length. We can offer you advice on these things during the demo video production process.Show the inner workings
It’s important to remember the name here: you’re making a ‘product demonstration video’ so it’s really important that the video actually demonstrates the product! The best demo videos really highlight how a product works with clear visuals and dialogue.Clear call to action
What do you want your viewer to do after watching? Think of a call-to-action – generally found at the end of your video – as a sign post at the end of a long road. Tell your viewer explicitly what you want them to do next and make sure you make the most of their investment in your product!We created multiple videos to show how to use various features of Invoice2Go. The aim was to help customers understand the app before and after they download it.
