Did you know that as of 2022, an average person is predicted to spend 100 minutes per day watching online videos? That's a lot of attention capital for anyone to take advantage of, however, social media is daunting (let alone video marketing). The real question is: in a world of TV ads, TikTok, Instagram reels, and Facebook ads, where do you start? In this conversation, we'll go over the following:

• Why Video?
• How do you know when video content is necessary?
• Identifying your Customer
• What kind of video + platform is the right fit for you?
• How to get started + what to look for when hiring a team
• Q+A
