The Problem:
Websites need an easy and cost effective way to explain what they do, but no one reads anymore. Website demo videos have only just begun.
The Business
A website demo video business.
The idea isn’t novel, but if you can do quality work, you can have an excellent business in website demo production. It’s something I would love to do for a project I’m working on, but I probably won’t spend the money. Furthermore, my concept isn’t as tough as some I’ve done.
I worked in a business that had a comparatively tough concept, and I bought a website demo video. It’s good. You can find it here.
I have seen excellent website demo videos from Simplifilm. They are who I would go with if I was going to purchase this time. I saw them when I was researching competitors in the verified testimonials space.
Doableness
You need skills in storyboarding, animation, voice work, graphics, and video production. Most importantly, you need to be able to tell a complicated story succinctly. A lot of skills need to come together. If you can do it all and put it all together, you have a winner. Demand for this product/skill set will not dry up anytime soon.
My Thoughts
There’s also a lot of information out there. Check out this info about website demo video pricing from Quora.
I sure hope my kids are technically savvy. Millenials are going to have a much easier time making a living producing web videos than being lawyers. How quick the world flips on its head.
