The biggest benefit to creating videos for your website or social media is being able to put a face on your business for your clients or potential clients to see.

Using video to showcase your excitement and energy while also using blogs to showcase your writing and technical skills will draw more people to work with you.
Videos Capture Limited Attention
Let’s put it this way, would you rather watch a video that is describing how to do something, or read an article on it? People want their content right now and they don’t want to wait for it.
