I just read some stats from videobrewery.com:

10 seconds

That’s how long you have to grab the attention of viewers in a video marketing clip, (research by Visible Measures). You’ll lose 20% of your viewers in 10 seconds, about 1/3 of them by 30 seconds, 45% of them by 1 minute and almost 60% by 2 minutes.

Why do viewers tune out?

The videos shouldn’t be about you. Videos should be for your customers. If you have a clear picture of your customers, you can give them something of value that they will want to watch.
