So let's dive right in. #1. Get Yourself On CameraNot exciting to most people. But there are great things that you can do with your camera and you get over the shyness or hesitancy to get on camera. There are some really easy ways to do this. Video tends to grow trust. It has the power to make people that see you on video trust you more, which means they will trust your business too. And there's nothing more powerful than somebody in a position of authority, doing a video about what they do best. Perfect example might be a walkthrough of a project that you've finished, go through all the different pieces and all you do literally is get on your phone. You don't need a special camera, you don't need a gimbal and all these complicated stuff. I mean, just pick up the phone, hit record, and start doing a walkthrough of maybe one of your projects. Now couple things, make sure that you introduce yourself, the name of your business, and then the service area that you cover. These are very important because Google's going to pick up on a lot of these keywords that you're using. So definitely worth using those keywords at the beginning. Explain what you're doing in your walk through of the project. Here's what we did with these windows, here's what we did with this awning. The deck was you know, getting beat down in the sun in the summertime and we install these solar shades or this retractable awning.... Whatever it happens to be, always show the finished project. Make sure that you end your video with something along the lines of if you would like us to do something similar, here's our phone number, visit us on our website. Those kind of project walkthroughs are fantastic. People love to see finished projects of what they potentially could have for their own home. So definitely get on the videos and start shooting videos now. You can then share these videos not just on YouTube but also across multiple social media networks. There's a lot of different platforms where you can upload these videos such as on Facebook and LinkedIn to get even more exposure for your brand. Another great idea is to send videos like this to potential clients. You can start the conversation by going Hey, we just installed this retractable... was thinking about you. Thought you'd be interested in this shoot, you know this short video about this project we just completed. So definitely a couple of really cool things you can do with that. Also, don't forget to put the video on your website as a short blog. This is so when somebody visits your website, they're getting that trust factor, they're getting hit with the fact that your video is on there and you're somebody in authority at this business. It really just helps out. So definitely a great marketing strategy for your window treatment and awning company is to get yourself on camera. #2. Consider Going Live On YouTubeOnce you are able to record and upload your videos, go live on Facebook. Make sure that you use landscape mode when doing so.
