Yesterday I gave you three reasons why video is one of the most powerful network marketing tools you can use. One word to sum these up – EASY!
Why then do so many people avoid video as if it was a plague? The best answer is one that the late Jim Rohn often shared in his presentations. When something is easy to do it’s just as easy not to do it.
Watch the video for ways to help you make it happen.
What kind of experiences have you had with video? Are there some specific areas you find challenging? Leave me a comment as I’d love to hear your feedback.
I’d really appreciate it if you could share this post using any of the buttons available. If you use Only Wire please share my post using this and I’ll do the same for you.
My goal? Helping you achieve yours.
Welcome! If you are new here reading this page first will help you get the most from my blog. 
Hey Marcus, that was great.
You’re right, I’ve never really liked myself on camera and it was HARD to make my first video. It would have been easier to wait, but I’m not very patient so I just had to make myself do it.
I loved what you said, about if any of us were great in front of the camera we’d already be in movies or TV. HAH that’s probably true.
Cheers!

Hi Susanna!
I am sure that making a video for most of us is an uncomfortable experience at first but it does get better with practice. Also when we can just accept that we are all perfect exactly as we are then the stress is taken away immediately.
Cheers

Hey Marcus,
You are correct! Creating video marketing is very simple and powerful. Everything you mention for not creating a video…I use it!
That is a great tip…Keep simple and short! I believe it’s more effective.
Thanks for this info!
Chat with you later…

Your videos are great Josh. I think the “Keep it Simple” formula works for most of what we do.

Hey Marcus,
Good point, videos are really powerful and are a great way to build your brand.
I can understand why some people put it off because the first few are quite uncomfortable but then it gets easy.
Thanks for the post my friend.

Hi Marcus,
Very well put! My husband started making videos last year for his mortgage business. Now he’s making at least a couple each week. I haven’t ventured there yet. Mostly for the reasons you mentioned
But, eventually I’m sure I will no longer be able to withstand pressure and just have to step up and do it.
By the way, I love how you picked Det from the Mainzelmaennchen for your picture. He’s the smart one!
Great info, thanks!
Cheers,

Hey Marcus,
Very cool video and yes it’s difficult for some people to do it.
However, you said it well, you just have to stop making excuses and get on with it. I’m with you 100%.

Sometimes it’s the only way Jerome… wishing it will get easier just doesn’t help sometimes.

Great post Marcus,
I guess it’s the same with anything, unless you start doing it you will never get good at it. I must agree that I feel really uncomfortable in front of the cammera but I can do it and will it.
Thanks for the wonderful tips.

My pleasure Tristram. Most of us feel uncomfortable in front of the camera but it does get easier the more one does it and you can and will do it too.
Cheers

Personally I LOVE video marketing. 1 Billion views on YouTube is a good enough reason. Videos are wonderful to send to you list as well letting them see you.
Have a great day!
