I Want to add Music to my Videos – How Do I Do That? (iPhone/iPad)

I’ve gotten this question from enough business owners / solopreneurs that I think it’s worth writing a blog to address it. Now, with all of the technology out there, everyone seems to have their own system. Some of us edit on Macs. Some on PCs. Some film and edit on phones or tablets, which leads …

How-to Create a Facebook Business Page 2019

A while back I posted the tutorial about linking your Instagram to your Facebook – I had needed an un-linked set of accounts so I could show that. In order to do that, I needed to create a facebook business page for my Princess Katie’s Ponies (feel free to laugh. 😉 ) and I figured, …

I’m not cosplaying at Dragon*Con 2019 and here’s why

Last year I went to Dragon*Con 2018 for the first time after being completely jealous on September 3, 2017 when my friends who had went told me all the fun things they had done. When I went last year, I brought costumes with me and during the four days I was there became Regular Sailor …

Don’t Make These 7 Drone Mistakes

After having my drone for a year now, I wouldn’t call myself an expert, but I’d call myself exactly what you might need if you were “about-to-buy-a-drone” / “just-bought-one-and-are-taking-it-out-of-the-package-right-now”. Unless you have a plethora of experience flying or using remote controlled vehicles, you will make lots of mistakes. Just don’t make the same dumb mistakes …

What does “User-Generated Content” Mean?

According to our trust-worthy friend, Wikipedia, (take THAT teachers who told me I couldn’t site Wikipedia) “User-generated content (UGC)… is any form of content, such as images, videos, text and audio, that have been posted by users on online platforms such as social media and wikis.[“ How does this differ from “content” in general? The difference is between YOU as your …

How-To Link your Instagram Account to your Facebook Business Page

As a business owner I like to save time and consolidate where I can. I’m sure you can relate. Unless you have a giant marketing team, you have to do it all yourself, from making the content specific for each platform to tagging, describing and posting it. It’s overwhelming! Of course there are tools out …

Man, eight years. A lot of it wasn't what I expect Man, eight years. A lot of it wasn't what I expected. 

One, I've seen videos with millions of views that did absolutely nothing for a business. I've also seen videos with under 100 views (I think it was more like 12 if I'm remembering correctly) lead to big 'ole sales. It's not about the vanity metrics. It's about the people who actually care, who interact with your content, who trust you. Those are the folks who become your customers and your brand advocates. You want conversions, you want engagement, you want to build trust? Focus on quality but not in the superficial stuff. Give your audience what they want and need from you to help them be successful. 

Two, video works best when it's part of your marketing strategy. You can't just throw up a video and expect magic to happen. You need to integrate it with your email marketing, your website, your social media, your sales funnel – everything. It's a whole ecosystem, and video is a crucial part of it.

But here's the biggest lesson I've learned: you don't have to be perfect. You really don't. In fact, trying to be perfect can actually hurt you. People are tired of seeing polished, airbrushed, fake versions of reality. They want realness. They want to see the human behind the brand. It builds trust. And trust is everything.

It's been an incredible journey, and I'm still learning every day. 

Just jotted down some of my random thoughts after 8 years in the video marketing biz. If you're into that kind of thing, comment 'BLOG' and I'll send you the link.

Ouch. That's uncomfortable. 😬 If you're not us Ouch. That's uncomfortable. 😬

If you're not using video to showcase your business, you're missing out on a huge opportunity to connect with potential customers and grow your brand. People are scrolling faster than ever, and if you're not popping up with something engaging and moving, you're just a thumb-swipe away from being forgotten.

Plus let's be real, watching a quick video is way easier than reading a novel-length post. 

So, if you're ready to ditch the digital dinosaur act and actually get your business seen, comment "VIDEO" below and let's get you started. No more excuses, just straight up, fun, and engaging video content.
Yeah, you read that right. 53 TIMES!   We dove in Yeah, you read that right. 53 TIMES!
 
We dove into a fascinating article that broke down the numbers, and it's pretty mind-blowing.
 
So, why is video so effective? Well, Google loves engaging content. Videos keep people on your website longer, signaling to Google that your site is valuable and relevant.
 
In fact, videos can increase your website's conversion rates by up to 80%! That's because they build trust, showcase your products or services in action, and tell your brand story in a way that resonates.
 
Do you want that kind of impact for your website?
 
We're here to help you leverage the power of video 😉 Comment VIDEO and we'll send you the link to our booking page.

Honestly, sometimes you just gotta DO THE THING. Honestly, sometimes you just gotta DO THE THING. 

No overthinking, no second-guessing, do it and see what happens. 

We spend so much time worrying about hypothetical futures that we forget to live in the present. And you know what? Most of the time, things work out way better than we imagine.

Even if it doesn't turn out exactly how you planned, you'll still learn something. You'll gain experience, you'll build resilience, and you'll be one step closer to figuring out what does work.

Real Talk👇 I wish more people knew that videos Real Talk👇

I wish more people knew that videos are SO much more than just TikTok dances and Instagram reels! 😅  Don't get me wrong, social media is powerful, but you're seriously missing out if that's the ONLY place your videos live.

Here's where you can put your videos effectively:

🎀 Homepages, product pages, "About Us" sections – video adds engagement and personality on your website.
🎀 Boost conversion rates with compelling explainer or demo videos on your landing pages.
🎀 Embed or link to videos to grab attention and drive clicks to your emails.
🎀 Keep your audience engaged with dynamic video content during your presentations/webinars.
🎀 Teach and demonstrate with video on your online courses for better learning outcomes.
🎀 Video podcasts are on the rise! (e.g. Spotify/Apple Music)
🎀 Display eye-catching videos in physical locations.
🎀 Use video for employee onboarding and updates.
🎀 Create video FAQs and troubleshooting guides.
