Why are explainer videos so powerful?

At Gisteo, we know you want to be a leader in your industry. In order to do that, you need clarity. It’s simple: if customers are confused about what you offer, they’ll look past you and buy from someone they understand.

The problem is that it’s hard to concisely clarify your messaging, especially with text alone. Modern day humans simply don’t love to read so you rightly turn to video as a solution. Unfortunately, too many of the explainer video companies are order-takers, not true marketers who have mastered the storytelling techniques you need to cut through the clutter.

We believe that explainer video production should be easy, fast and affordable. We understand you want a quality solution to close more deals, without breaking the bank. That’s why we’ve been the go-to animated video agency for so many organizations since 2011.

We do this but first getting to know your brand and overall objectives. Then, we craft a script and visual treatment designed to get you results. Finally, we deliver a stellar explainer video that acts as a 24/7 sales agent so you can grow your business.

So book your free consultation now and, in the meantime, check out our transparent pricing and our work to get a better sense of what we do. Stop letting clarity hold you back and start getting the calls, clicks and leads you need to soar!

FAQs

Searching for the best explainer video company? Here are a few of our frequently asked questions. More in-depth information is available here

Another explainer video company quoted 2-3x what Gisteo rates are. WTF?

Yes, that’s kind of Gisteo’s thing: affordable explainer video production. Mind you, “affordable” doesn’t mean dirt cheap. It’s all about value-for-money at our animated video agency. We have a streamlined team and process with pricing that’s fair by design. We do plenty of volume, get countless referrals and lots of repeat business. We have numerous clients who often do at least several explainer videos a year so, in general, we can afford to be more on the aggressive side with our rates. It’s good for our clients and good for our business.

An explainer video company on the other side of the world quoted us $300. WTF?

Be very wary.  We’ve been doing this since 2011 and each project is a labor of love.  We custom craft our animated explainer videos, starting with an expertly written script by a real marketing professional. We then meticulously storyboard everything before production, giving clients a chance to deliver feedback every step of the way. We don’t use any cheesy templates, automated tools, AI voices or drag-n-drop software platforms when creating our explainer videos.  So…if the price quote from another video animation agency seems to be “too good to be true,” it probably is.

Who owns the rights to the final explainer video?

After the explainer video is paid for and delivered, you own 100% of the rights to on a perpetual basis. You can use your video in any way you’d like, on any platform.

How does your explainer video production process work?

This isn’t our first rodeo and we can give you suggestions based on our extensive marketing and explainer video production experience.
