Notable Quotes

• Video conveys so much more than just what you say. With video, you are able to communicate your passion, your feelings, and that what tended to create this connection between people, which also creates trust.
• Well, my advice is to start explaining and think about strategy. First, what you want to convey and how you will do it over time, you're not going to end up doing something once and then forgetting about it. Because that doesn't bring results.
• Research your keywords, create content, see what actually trends on YouTube because training is something that where you can utilize your efforts on and then probably see, if you already have written articles, just repurpose them in the form of video
• You have to streamline your video creation process. And that makes it easier for you to produce it on a regular basis.
• Whatever your goal is, for this particular video, you need to tell your viewers directly what you want.
• Under commit and over deliver.
