SAN DIEGO--Creatable (www.creatable.io), the leading provider of cloud-based video technologies, has announced a partnership with SLI Systems (SLI.NZ) a global provider of eCommerce search-based technologies, to enable online shoppers to find relevant videos through an intelligent and integrated video search solution delivered to retail web and mobile commerce experiences.“Our partnership with SLI Systems enables online shoppers to find relevant video search results on eCommerce sites. Merchants are now able to offer consumers the ability to access and watch video results from search functions within their own online store, instead of forcing consumers to head off their commerce site to YouTube,” noted Allon Caidar, CEO of Creatable.Creatable’s Video Commerce Cloud enables merchants to source, publish and monetize shoppable dynamic video experiences. On average, merchants using Creatable see an increase of 30 percent in conversion rates and 40 percent in average order values from video visits, compared to visitors who do not watch a video. Given those numbers, it is important to expose shoppers to video whenever it is relevant. However, for most merchants, relevant videos are not shown in their site search.The ability to provide video search results within an online store offers merchants a real opportunity to obtain the kind of extended engagement and retention rates that are more commonly found on media sites such as YouTube. Serving product offers while consumers watch video directly converts newly founded engagement into an entirely new revenue channel.“Video data is an important part of the consumer experience that benefits from exposure via search. The Creatable partnership is an opportunity for SLI to combine two highly effective technologies for a solution that enhances the customer experience, increases engagement and ultimately increases sales,” said Shaun Ryan, Co-Founder and VP of Corporate Development at SLI Systems.About CreatableOne of the main challenges for merchants and publishers today is how they will generate the double digit growth they need to compete in a highly competitive online marketplace. Consumers have an 8.25 second attention span, and spend over 5 hours/day watching video.
