Decision making process in case of explainer videos




“A decision is said to be made when an individual selects a course of action from two or more alternative choices.”

There are various  stages in consumer decision making in selecting explainer videos:

Problem recognition: A consumer identifies various problems in his firm and recognises the need to buy an explainer video.
Generally the various problems of many firms that lead to the purchasing of explainer videos are:
a)      When start-ups face the problem that the owner himself is managing both sales and marketing
b)      When the company wants to impress the consumer within very little time.
c)       When it is difficult to accomplish the task of making the customer understand the benefits of the product through using just text or traditional marketing materials.
d)      When it is necessary to get ranked with a better rank by the search engine optimization companies like Google.
e)      When the company is interested to promote its product aggressively in social media.

Information to be known by the Company: The company will make a study of and analyse the business environment, to decide about what sort of explainer video is required by them.
The following information is worth knowing by the company in case of explainer videos:

1.Freezing of the requirements:The company must freeze its requirements  before taking a decision as to whether an explainer video is needed by them and if yes, what kind of video is required by them. For freezing of requirements the following points must be noted down.
