Why BOFU videos matter more than ever
Buyers today are savvier and more self-directed than ever. By the time they reach the bottom of the funnel, they need detailed, product-specific information, not just brand awareness. BOFU videos bridge the gap between interest and action by:
Demonstrating product functionality
Answering technical questions
Showcasing real customer results
Offering self-serve demos to speed up decision-making
Businesses using video marketing see 34% higher conversion rates than those that don’t. But beyond new logos, BOFU videos also help with onboarding, upselling, and retention.
The five essential BOFU video types
Finding the right use case for BOFU videos is crucial because it ensures your content directly addresses the specific needs and questions your audience has at the final stages of their buying journey. Whether it's explaining complex features, showcasing customer results, or offering a self-serve demo, aligning your video with the right use case increases relevance, engagement, and ultimately, conversions. A well-targeted BOFU video can be the deciding factor that turns a prospect into a customer.
If you’re unsure where to start, focus on these core formats:
Product explainer videos - Short, engaging videos (60–90 seconds) that visually explain how your product works. Perfect for simplifying complex features.
How-to videos - More detailed walkthroughs that address specific product actions or functions. Great for technical users and support enablement.
Product announcements - Short videos that generate buzz around new features or product launches. These keep your audience excited and informed.
Customer videos - Testimonials, case studies, or day-in-the-life videos that build trust through real-world success stories.
On-demand demos - Longer videos that let buyers explore your product on their schedule. Scales your sales team’s efforts without sacrificing depth.
