Lately I have been making a different kind of video besides continuing to make video infomercials.  I’m talking about making videos about myself.  You can do this also.  Video is a great way to let others know about yourself.

It’s fun, but yes can be scary.  We all want to present ourselves well.  People will respect honesty.  This kind of video will help you to become more articulate which is good for most of us.  Because of your honesty people will trust you and this will help in your business.

So think before you make one of these videos about what you want to communicate.  You will be sharing some of the real you.  You actually will be starting to develop your own brand.  Attraction Marketing includes people being attracted to what Frank Kern calls your “Core Values”.

In today’s age of Social Media people want to connect with a real person, not just a company.  So I’m going to give you the secret to making a successful video.

People watch videos to see whats in them for themselves.  Now here is the secret- are you ready?  Give away your best and most helpful information that the viewer can really use.  Put the viewer first because to them your video is really about them, not you.  This is how you will start gaining a following.

Ask them through text or verbally to rate your video, comment and subscribe to your youtube channel.

Do not talk to the masses.  Talk to the camera as if it is your best friend talking with you in your living room.

Here is my very personal video on transformation.  What did you think?  Please leave a comment by the video and right here on the blog.  Oh and if you haven’t subscribed to my video channel yet.  Please do and I will do the same as I would like to see your videos too.

Well it’s been 2 weeks into Maria Andros’s “Social Media Traffic Blueprint” Program.  So here’s what I’m learning and moving forward with from it.

Twitter- I learned the importance of a powerful biography to establish credibility.  To get a company logo and graphics up also.  Get followers and keep your ratios balanced.  Have at least 5-10 conversations a day.  Build relationships which lead to new customers, JV Partners and speaking engagements.

YouTube- Create a powerful biography that establishes yourself as an expert and authority.  Get a custom logo made.  Choose a catchy title and headline.  Use all the custom design channel tools.  Create a simple intro video 25-40 seconds for your videos.

How to make hypnotic videos- Go deep to find out who your customer is.  When making a video change your own space first to be in a confident state.  Speak to the camera as you are talking to only your best friend, not to the masses.    Share your story to gain trust.

Well this is just a snapshot and doesn’t do justice to all the cutting edge information I am learning and starting to implement.  It’s a great time of fun, excitement and growth while getting out there and known in web 2.0

It’s been great being part of this community and I suggest you keep track of Maria’s videos as you will learn a ton.  Also subscribe to my videos and we can keep in touch together and grow on this great journey together.  My youtube channel is:  http://www.youtube.com/user/MarketingWithRob
