Just say it! More and more businesses realize that saying it is quicker and more conclusive than typing it out. Documentation via YouTube video has become the norm in presenting new product and useful instruction to consumers, business partners, and employees. According to a Forbes article by Jessica Baron, “The popularity of video is also giving companies incentives to create more video content. Marketers, influencers, news sites, and anyone else who wants to deliver a message to the next consumer generation – which also happens to be the most diverse in history – is going to have to invest in video content.”
Benefits of YouTube Video Transcripts

Video transcripts offer complete content while giving viewers the freedom to engage visually in the video and not worry about missing a thing.
