MenuHow much do you charge to do a topic on video.
I'd like to have you talk about my service that can make anyone money.
Answers
It depends on where you plan to market the video and the value that you intend to make back from the video itself.
If you have the script ready you can then look at the length of the video to price the job per number of videos multiplied by the total time to record all the videos.
A good actor can cost as little as $100 per hour, but that can go up depending on their competency and experience.
That's an excellent question, and it's great to see you're interested in promoting your service. There are a few different options for creating a video, each with its own potential costs.
1. Do It Yourself: This is the least expensive option, where you can use your own equipment (like a smartphone) and free or low-cost editing software. This is best if you're budget-conscious and willing to learn.
2. Freelance Video Producers: Depending on their experience, freelancers could charge anywhere from $25 to $100+ per hour. They can handle the shooting, editing, and sometimes even scriptwriting. Websites like Upwork or Fiverr can help you find someone within your budget.
3. Video Production Company: These are the most expensive option, usually starting at a few thousand dollars for a short video, but they handle everything from scriptwriting to shooting to post-production. This is the best option for a highly professional look and feel.
Regarding the promotion of your service through the video, it might be beneficial to consider hiring a scriptwriter or marketing consultant to help you craft a compelling message. They can help you highlight how your service can make money for others and target the right audience.
TLDR: the most important thing about your video is the story it tells. No matter how much you spend on production, your video's effectiveness will come down to the clarity and appeal of its message.

How can I monetize my You Tube videos effectively outside of the website's own monetization?
Congrats on your steady growth on Twitter and YouTube - that's definitely a good sign that you're on the right track! Sponsorship, brand integration, product placement, reviews, and endorsements are all good ways to make more income with your YouTube videos. Sponsorship would be like a regular, ongoing company that is mentioned at the start and/or end as helping make the video/show possible, brand integration would be making a video based around the company's product or service, product placement would be using the company's product briefly in a video, a review would be sharing your thoughts on the company's product or service, and an endorsement could just be saying at some point that you found a company with a product or service that you like and think your audience would as well. Hope that helps and otherwise if you would like more information on any of those or ways to get companies involved, please feel free to request a call with me!JR

Youtube, Vimeo or Wistia , which one is a better option for Launch Page?
I highly recommend YouTube. You can configure the embed video to hide the YouTube watermark, autoplay, hide the controls, and hide all related videos (that show up after the video is done playing). This will make your video look amazing on your launch page. Here is a link on how to configure the YouTube embed code parameters - https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters If you do your keyword research and optimize the Title, Description, and Tags when uploading to YouTube you can take advantage of more search traffic from Google and YouTube.HM

What are some good solutions to driving up YouTube views on my recent TEDx video?
I like to approach these things with big wins. One, ask yourself who your message would help? Who would find this really valuable? It may not be people you'd typically think. Look outside of your industry. Find where those people hangout online. Where are they on Facebook? What are they reading? etc. Then brainstorm ways that you can show up on those channels. For example: let's say your peeps love Forbes. Have you pitched Forbes yet? Or let's say that mommy bloggers would go crazy for your idea (so you think). You hit up some of them via email and tell them you'd love to share this free content. You'd think it'd be valuable. Content creators are always in the biz of finding more great content. So, when you can provide it and it makes sense (your job is to show why it makes sense) then people are happy to promote. The scariest part about this is pitching it because it can feel vain. The key is thinking about those you're helping, removing yourself from the equation and releasing the outcome. Then see what happens :) Happy to discuss in detail how you can find potential partners to promote your work, formulate the pitch and even create some email templates for you to send out on a call. Shoot me a message if you want to set up a call.LB

Marketing/Sale, When researching information for ways video can help grow profits/engagement - what topics/type of information are you looking for?
Hello, I've worked with many CMOs, Marketing Managers, Sales Directors, etc. selling enterprise software with or to these personas. The main topics that these folks will be interested in will be lead generation, revenue generation, team enablement, thought leadership, among others.

The types of people listed above that you want to dedicate your videos to are EXTREMELY numbers-focused and ROI-driven. If you can educate them through short form videos on how your videos can help them with their goals, you will be able successfully "sell" your videos and grab their collective attention in a thoughtful manner. Happy to jump on a call to give you some first-hand insight as to what specific topics you should focus on.SH
