Make video for your audience

It might be 5 min long but who actually watched all of it? Hook the audience in 5 sec and get them to watch more. Keep it short and sweet, people are most likely browsing on their mobile.

Why did you show that to me?

If you are going to get their attention for even 30 seconds, make sure the audience see some value in your message.

Promotions and discounts don’t count.

Find that theme

Why are you doing this?

Set out the role of each channel you intend to use. Give each a purpose and a business objective.

This steers everything. A business objective is more the $.
