Show Notes:
If you’re doing videos for your business to make more money, you’ll have more credibility if you come across as smart and an authority. Today I’ll share 7 ways to seem smart on video.
A quick programming note here… Yesterday was Memorial Day here in the US and even though it’s a holiday, I had planned to stick with my promise to upload a video every weekday. One of my OTHER projects was to create a playlist on my channel that’s a collection of many of the videos I’ve done for other company channels like B&H in NY, Canon USA, The National Association of Broadcasters, Kelby One and more. So I added a couple hundred videos to that list.
I know when I post my own new videos a tweet goes out and a notification goes out to my subscribers, but I didn’t realize that this would send out a Tweet for every video I added from OTHER channels to that new playlist. So first. Sorry. AND that’s why I didn’t go ahead with my regular daily video tip.
On the bright side of things, I now have a playlist that shows the millions of views I’ve gotten in recent years and, I’ve caught up on my lame social media post volume.
Okay, so today’s 7 ways to come across smarter on business videos…
1) Get rid of verbal ticks / sloppy speech habits
2) Explain various education points in three different ways
3) Do not use the cadence of a news reporter, speak conversationally
4) Don’t state your credentials right up front
5) Use lower thirds and on-screen text for credentials
6) Drop in testimonials if appropriate
7) Edit away mistakes
BONUS Tip: Look & sound good
