When you go shopping, you try things on before you buy them to see how they fit and look in practice and not just on the rack. Well, it turns out that people shopping for Gigs® do the exact same thing.
A Gig® video is not just a way to promote yourself and your services, it also encourages sales by showing the seller exactly what they will receive if they work with you. If a buyer can check that your Gig is a good fit for them they’re more likely to click the “buy” button. You wouldn’t apply for a job without supplying some samples or a portfolio right? Posting your Gigs is the same idea, you’re applying for the buyers’ to choose your Gig out of all the others.

- 84% of all the Gigs sold in “Music & Audio” had a video

It’s not only the buyers that you can woo with a great Gig video that shows off the quality and professionalism that you’re able to provide, but it’s also our editors. Without a video to evaluate your Gig’s quality, our editors simply can’t promote it in good conscience. On the other hand, Gigs with a video that shows how great your work is are more likely to catch an editor’s eye and encourage them to promote it.
