I’ve invited video production and social media expert Kenny Ballentine back to talk about why you need video now more than ever.  Video is a great way to connect with your prospects and customers. Kenny walks you through how to super charge your videos, the technical aspects of creating great video and his thoughts on to find the silver linings of the Covid19 shut down.

Listen to my first interview with Kenny 

https://breakawaybusinesscoaching.com/kenny-ballentine-podcast/

Kenny didn’t decide to be an entrepreneur, it just happened as his love for storytelling got him started on his filmmaking career.

Kenny has worked on some very impressive movies. One of the short films he created landed him at a showing in the White house sitting alongside Michelle Obama and her girls.  When Kenny is not creating films, he’s helping small business owners tell their stories through video. Kenny recently founded the Content Club where he uses his knowledge and experience to push entrepreneurs out of their comfort zone into video marketing.

If you're finally ready to get serious about growing your small business, then it's time to get serious about your business development, marketing and sales team, too.

After years of leading The Big Guys to revenue gains, I knew the future was with small business. I developed new marketing techniques to rapidly build awareness and revenues for my clients at Blanc and Otus Public Relations. I left to found, first, Authentic Marketing and then Wide Awake Marketing to bring a fresh, authentic voice and style to marketing.

Interesting times we are in. With the worldwide pandemic of Covid-19 keeping many of us at home, we've had to adapt to a new normal. Working from home is new for many people and can be somewhat of a challenge. Typically this podcast is an interview format where I chat with a successful entrepreneur. In this bonus episode I explore the challenges of working from home and share some thoughts on how to overcome those challenges.  And perhaps even find a silver lining during these trying times.
