- Abstract
The increasing intensity of social media use is greatly utilized by business actors to advertise their products through social media. But it is estimated that between 82% - 94% of social media users watch videos without using their voice. This can affect the effectiveness of advertising on purchasing decisions. This research was conducted with the aim of testing the results when the audience watched the video with sound or without sound on purchasing decisions, seeing if there were differences in the results of exposure to the video, and testing whether the long duration of the video without sound was more successful than the short duration. To investigate this, the researcher used an experimental quantitative approach with a 2x4 factorial design. 140 respondents were taken randomly according to the criteria, using random assignment techniques to determine the research group. The theory used in this research is soundless video advertising, information processing theory, and purchasing decisions. The results showed that in general, there was no difference in exposure to silent advertisements with sound advertisements (product advertisement, talent advertisement, and horror trailers), except for comedy trailers. Also, it can be seen that long duration of silent videos are more successful than short duration videos in purchasing decisions.
