5 Ways Video-Based Training Saves Time and Money for Your Business

💡 Why it matters: Video-based training is no longer a luxury — it’s a smart investment that drives efficiency, engagement, and cost-effectiveness. With the right approach, you can transform your employee, customer, and partner education while cutting down on expenses.

1. Scalable Training for Any Audience

• Save time: Train hundreds (or thousands) of employees, customers, or partners at once, without the need for repeated live sessions.
• Save money: Eliminate travel, venue, and instructor costs for in-person training.
• Example: Xerox utilized Synthesia’s AI video platform to produce training videos, reducing localization and voice-over expenses by 50%.

2. Faster Onboarding

• Save time: Streamline onboarding with pre-recorded videos that employees can access anytime, anywhere.
• Save money: Reduce time-to-productivity by up to 50% with consistent, high-quality training.
• Example: Cisco developed whiteboard animation videos to simplify complex concepts, enhancing employee understanding and speeding up the onboarding process.

3. Boost Retention with Engaging Content

• Save time: Cut down on retraining by improving knowledge retention through visual and interactive video formats.
• Save money: Minimize errors caused by poorly trained staff and avoid repeated training costs.
• Example: Dunkin’ Donuts created training videos featuring existing employees demonstrating correct behaviors, making training more engaging and improving retention.

4. 24/7 Accessibility and Flexibility

• Save time: Employees can learn at their own pace, during downtime, or even remotely.
• Save money: Reduce lost productivity by offering training during non-peak hours.
• Example: Amazon plans to invest over $1.2 billion to upskill 300,000 employees by 2025, offering flexible learning options like university tuition and certifications accessible at any time.

5. Data-Driven Improvements

• Save time: Use analytics from video platforms to identify knowledge gaps and refine training quickly.
• Save money: Focus resources only where needed, optimizing both content and delivery.
• Example: A manufacturing firm tracked viewer engagement with training videos, leading to content improvements that resulted in a 30% increase in operational efficiency.
