How to use it (step-by-step)
Goal lock – one metric: “schedule enterprise demo.”
ICP snapshot – job titles, KPI pain, compliance trigger.
Script (founder + PMM) – 150 words, problem-agitate-solve-CTA.
Storyboard (agency) – 8–10 frames, UI screenshots, brand palette.
Voiceover – 125 wpm, gender-neutral, separate caption file.
Animation style – 2D flat for SaaS, isometric for infra, minimal motion < 300ms.
Legal review – remove forward-looking claims, add © year.
Render multi-format – 16:9 (website), 1:1 (LinkedIn), 9:16 (email sig).
Distribute – Vidyard embed, Salesforce cadence, LinkedIn DM follow-up.
Measure – view-through ≥ 50%, CTA click ≥ 3%, demo booked ≥ 15% of viewers.
Founders often miss this — runtime over 75s drops demo-book rate by 4% for every extra 30s; board-level buyers decide early.

Practical Tips & Cautions
Bold lead: lock script before visuals—every post-storyboard word change adds $500.
Bold lead: burn in captions; 83% of enterprise buyers watch muted (Wyzowl 2026).
Bold lead: insist on source files—textless renders cost $0 to update for EU currency or GDPR wording.
Bold lead: keep runtime 45–75s; CIOs bail after 80s on mobile.
Bold lead: add end-card CTA with calendar link, not a form.
Bold lead: secure perpetual worldwide rights but limit to 3-year term to renegotiate price.

What's the process?
Once you place your order, you'll be directed to a short form where you provide key details about your product and vision.
As soon as we receive it, we start writing the script—typically crafting 2-3 versions in different tones for you to choose from.
Within 1-2 days, we’ll send the script for your approval. Once approved, we move on to the storyboard, ensuring every scene aligns with your vision before we begin animation.
When the final video is ready, you get unlimited revisions to make sure it’s exactly what you want.

All revisions are unlimited—we don’t stop until you’re 100% happy with the final video.
