Words are cool and all, (okay, if you ask me, word Words are cool and all, (okay, if you ask me, words are almost, like, my favorite thing...) but seeing someone's actual face light up when they talk about you or your business? That's pure happiness. 

Video testimonials aren't just about what they say, but the 'aww yeah, they mean it' vibe you get.

Still letting plain text do all the heavy lifting for your testimonials? C'mon, let's bring those happy customers to life!

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.
