NEWSFLASH! Your video doesn’t need to go viral to work

We refrain from posting our videos because we wonder, “Who would watch this?” “No one will share this.” “What if my video only gets 10 views?” All valid concerns… if misguided. You’re right! You probably will not get shares on every video, especially if you’re doing it yourself. AND, yes, some of those videos will have …

The brief history of Katie and her Camera

I bought my first camera in the fall of 2005. I was almost 13. It was a Kodak Easyshare with a lens that didn’t even extend past the body of the camera. I paid $100 for it, (and as a 12/13 year old, that’s quite a sum!)  I took 1000s of pictures with it and I was enamored. …

Too much comfort, too many expectations, too little happiness

I find that I am the most happy when my joys are small, and somewhat infrequent. That sounds strange, doesn’t it? In this age of abundance to excess, why skimp if we don’t have to? Let’s take advantage of the cornucopia of desire fillers, we think. But what start out as desire fillers become desire …

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.
