3 Steps to Effective Video Marketing

How do you create effective video marketing strategy that fits your schedule?

Every single one of us is different. Maybe you have a full time job. Maybe you don’t. Maybe you have family or kids.

You always have to adjust your schedule to make the most out of every spare hour or minute that you have.

In this post you’re gonna learn 3 steps to develop an effective video marketing strategy.

First thing you have to understand is video marketing will take a little bit of time, especially in the beginning. It’s not gonna be easy, BUT it’s gonna be worth it in the long term. Once you’re able to develop that skill and make it your second nature. Recording my first 3 or 5 minute videos literally took me about an hour. AN HOUR! And then I had to spend even more time to edit those damn videos.. Do you think that struggle was worth it? You bet! 

Just be prepared, that your first videos will be terrible. Don’t even watch them yourself. And don’t be worried about being judged. Not a lot of people will be watching your videos anyways. I had only a handful of people in the beginning. You’ll grow your audience eventually.

However, it may take you less time to record one little video. I’m not a native English speaker, so language barrier was a big challenge too. If you’re native, it’ll be easier. Just get into the habit of practice. It won’t make you perfect, but it will make you better.

So the very first step to effective video marketing strategy is you have to map out how often can you commit. How often are you able to record and share your videos? Are you gonna do it once a week. Ot three times a week? Or maybe you wanna go big and do it every single day? It’s completely up to you, your schedule, and what kinda results you wanna get.

The more often you share your videos, and the more consistent you are, the better your business will grow. That’s pretty obvious, but that’s the real secret most people are looking for. If you do one video every day for a week, and the next week you do zero, that’s not consistency, that’s laziness.

Make a commitment to yourself and honestly say how often are you able to share videos. Another important thing to keep in mind is this – will you record one video per day and share it? OR you will record videos in bulk once or several times a week? The second one is my preferred strategy, because I love doing them in one seat, and then not having to worry about not having content to share. Choose any strategy that suits you best, and run with it.

There are 2 more super important steps to creating effective video marketing strategy to grow your business, that I talk about in the video below. One of the steps is super crucial (most people forget about it, and that’s why they’re not getting lots of results out of their video marketing). So be sure to check it out, so you can create more success in your business!
