Every video that you create has a purpose and as a business owner your videos should have an end goal of eventually leading to sales
Here is the recipe to a video that converts views to sales
1 Is a hook
The hook is the most important thing because this is what gets people to keep watching your video content, This is not the time to be long winded, Get to the point as soon as possible
2 Is the main content
The next part of a video script is the main content This will be you delivering on whatever you said you were going to do in the hook.Your going to do whatever it takes to deliver that information and your also going to try to keep it straight to the point and stay on topic
3 is the cta
The outro for business owners specifically is usually a call to action of some sort and it all depends on what your goals are at the time with your video content do you want to get more clients, do you want to grow your audience or do you just want to get more brand awareness

Client spotlight ✨
Anne came to me with footage for a brand message video that she shot and wasn't quite sure how to put together.
What I loved about this project is that she asked for 3 different versions to be optimized for different platforms which was her website, Instagram and LinkedIn
This gives us a good reminder that if we have the extra bandwidth to create multiple videos for the platforms and also to repurpose our videos for different purposes
This is not the whole video but she loved them so much she asked for 3 more and all of these videos were actually taken from only 2 videos that she shot

As a video editor having an onboarding process is super important to me because it helps me stay organized and gives a good client experience.
Here it is step by step.
➡️ Book a call and fill out a form
Once you click the book a call button on my website you will be taken to a calendar where you will be able to select a time and then fill out a few questions about your self.
➡️ Discovery/Intro Call
As crazy as it sounds, this is actually my favorite part of the process! This is where I get to know more information about the brand and see if we're a good fit for each other.
➡️ Proposal
After getting a clear picture of the project scope and agreeing on a budget, I then send a proposal to the client with a project proposal outlining the timeline, deliverables, and investment.
➡️ Contract & Deposit
I never start a project without a contract and deposit first, so this is a crucial step to not miss! This protects everyone, and sets the expectations for the project.
➡️ Welcome Email & Project Portal
Once the contract is signed, we officially onboard our client to their portal where all the details to the project is laid out.

Sending over large video files can be a hassle so here are some best practices
1. Make sure the person your sending it to has permission to view and edit
Really.... double check
2.If your uploading large video files its best to do so when you have a high internet speed so make sure your in a area with a stable connection when uploading
One way you can check this is typing in speed test on google and then run speed test, the results will say if its good
3. If your sending multiple files for multiple videos its best to break those folders up per video for organization purposes
Nowadays there is just so much video content being created. So when it becomes overwhelming and you're ready to outsource the video editing the question of what exactly can I outsource to a video editor. The awnser is you can outsource whatever is taking up the most time.
Most of the time when people think of outsourcing video editing they only think of YouTube, podcasts and short video content but a lot of the things that you do in your business can actually be outsourced
Whats one type of video content you plan on outsourcing this year?
There are 3 ways you can turn your blogs into video content
you can either turn it into a short content video series where you talk about the different sections of the blog
You can do a over view of the blog by taking the title and the main points and creating a whole video for youtube
Or you can create white board explainer videos or story videos created with stock footage and royalty free music
I go over my process in my YouTube video this week
https://youtu.be/tqImz4glfkc?si=8EQ9AqVglWsQiy0a
After your done with your livestream dont just throw the whole video up on YouTube and just leave it there
You don't want to do this because usually when people are on YouTube they are looking for solutions to their problems And your webinar or livestream has that but you have to remove the 15 minutes in the front where your getting ready and letting people into the virtual room and catching up with your coworkers.
So instead of posting the whole thing edit the video file and do a shorter recap video instead with the most important points made in the live steam
want to know more watch this weeks YouTube video
