The layers underneath a floor, and the work needed to prepare them, are less obvious. A cutaway of one approved installation can help customers understand what they're being quoted for. ![Wooden parquet in a herringbone pattern](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/floor.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Diana ✨ / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/wooden-parquet-flooring-in-herringbone-pattern-37341468/). [Pexels License](https://www.pexels.com/license/).* ## Look beneath the surface Use a cutaway to label the relevant layers and identify the preparation included in the proposal. Follow it with the point at which site conditions are reviewed and the scope is confirmed. Keep product care in a separate, model-specific video so customers can find that information after installation without replaying a sales introduction. ## What to bring to the brief Gather the product documents, sample floor assemblies, proposals and approved care instructions. Check the example against the service you offer, including any separately agreed work. Review the sequence in simple sketches before choosing the final animation. ![Technical drawings beside a laptop](https://caprivideo.com/content/images/blueprint.jpg) *Illustrative stock photo: [Thirdman / Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/photo/blueprints-and-a-laptop-8470810/). [Pexels License](https://www.pexels.com/license/).* ## Where the video can help Use it alongside proposals or in the showroom. Ask a customer how two options differ beyond color and finish. If that's hard to answer, improve the cutaway. Room photography can set the scene, but the technical properties need to come from the documents for the materials being offered. ## Related reading - [Show customers how your service works](https://caprivideo.com/guides/b2b-explainer-videos) - [Separate standing-desk assembly from panel help](https://caprivideo.com/industries/ecommerce/standing-desk-videos) ## Related pages - [Industry group: Local services & trades](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services) - [A little more background: Show customers how your service works](https://caprivideo.com/guides/b2b-explainer-videos) - [Bring a landscape proposal into view](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/landscape-design-videos): Walk through paths, planting and outdoor spaces while keeping proposed work and completed projects clearly distinct. - [What's part of the regular lawn-care visit?](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/lawn-care-explainer-videos): Show the areas covered by a recurring plan, its schedule and how customers can request additional work. - [A calmer introduction to a pest-control visit](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/pest-control-explainer-videos): Explain contact, inspection and service-specific preparation without alarming imagery or a do-it-yourself treatment demonstration. - [Help customers plan the move you're quoting for](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/moving-company-explainer-videos): A sample move can make inventory, access, packing options and each person's responsibilities easier to discuss. - [What happens after a restoration inquiry?](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/restoration-company-videos): Give property owners a calm explanation of assessment, approvals, progress updates and the people handling their questions. - [Who handles a building maintenance request?](https://caprivideo.com/industries/local-services/facility-service-explainer-videos): Use a simple building map to explain your team's responsibilities, approvals and work handled by other contractors. ## See your offer as a video We create a free watermarked video for your business from your website.
