🆚 Explainer Videos vs Long Sales Pages: What Works Best for GHL Services?
Struggling to get leads through your GHL funnel? Replace or support your long-form sales page with a short explainer video—and convert faster.
🧠 The Premise: You’re Selling Something That’s Hard to Explain
GoHighLevel services aren’t simple.
Funnels, automations, dashboards—it’s not a $7 ebook.
You need something that communicates:
- Value
- Simplicity
- Trust
- Urgency
And fast.
📜 The Long Sales Page: Pros & Cons
What works:
- SEO juice
- Room for storytelling
- Custom CTAs and segmentation
But...
- Requires a lot of copywriting skill
- Time-consuming to build
- Skimmable, often unread
- Can feel bloated or overhyped
🎬 Explainer Videos: Why They're Winning in 2025
Explainer videos offer:
- 90 seconds of clarity
- A fully visual brand experience
- Sound, movement, tone (non-verbal persuasion)

🧩 Where to Use Each
Use Case | Best Format |
---|---|
Cold traffic / paid ads | Explainer video |
Homepage above the fold | Explainer video |
SEO article / content upgrade | Long-form page |
Warm audience upsell | Explainer + CTA |
Retargeting funnel | Short video wins |
Best combo = video first, text below.
📈 Real Funnel Performance Trends
Current conversion trends show:
- Pages with short explainer videos convert 20–40% higher than text-only
- Mobile users prefer video explanations over walls of copy
- Funnels with autoplay (muted) videos reduce bounce and raise time on page
💡 Bonus Tip: Combine Both
Use a video to explain.
Use text to close.
Let the explainer video warm them up, then use your long-form pitch to fill in the logic and trigger the sale.
🎯 Final Word
Writing long-form copy is hard.
Getting people to read it is harder.
A strong explainer video wins the scroll, gets the point across fast, and raises your authority.
Use both—but start with video.
