Six types of videos you can monetize

Watch the video:

1. Product and/or service reviews⁣⁣⁣

Review a product or service and share what your experience was like using it as well as if you would recommend it.  The more in-depth the video, the better. You can monetize these types of videos with affiliate marketing.⁣

2. Day in the life (Vlog)⁣⁣

You will be surprised at how interesting people will find your life. You can show a day in your life as a new mom, beautician, essential work, personal trainer, business coach… the list goes on! ⁣

If you are a service provider, this is a great video to showcase your services and what you do! ⁣Show what exactly goes into your profession and be sure to lew viewers know HOW they can work with you!

3. Favorites⁣

Talk about things you’re currently loving. If you’re a beautician, share your favorite beauty product. If you’re a mom, share your favorite mommy items; if you’re a business coach, then share your favorite business tools. The list goes on!

Affiliate marketing works great for these types of videos because if it’s your favorite then viewers may want to try it out too! If you sell a product, you can also highlight that (i.e., if you have a cosmetic line, highlight your favorite shade of lipstick within your brand)⁣

4. Q&A videos⁣⁣

Have your audience ask you questions and answer them in a video. If you’re a smaller channel, you can answer questions you commonly receive. If you’re a health coach, answer common questions received in your profession.⁣

These types of videos are great for selling your products and services!⁣

⁣

5. How-to⁣⁣

Provide step-by-step details on how to accomplish a task such as doing a smokey eye or doing a proper sit-up.⁣

You can also market your services this way (i.e.: record a video on how to budget for a new home and share you’re a financial advisor)⁣

6. Testimonials⁣

Testimonials are great at because they showcase how well you deliver. If you’re a business coach, have a client share their testimonial. This is great at establishing you as the expert as well as showcasing that you get results! If you sell products (such as lipsticks), collect testimonials from customers sharing it’s the perfect red lip for them and they’re so much more confident. Testimonials are great at driving sales for your products and/or services.

Listen to the podcast version:

I LOVE being on camera BUT I wasn’t always like this! There was a time when being on camera made me nervous. I specifically remember in college having a video assignment where I had to pretend I was a new anchor and man, oh, man… talk about a nervous wreck. Today, I’m sharing some of […]

I have been able to batch videos for my Business YouTube channel, stick to a schedule, send out weekly podcast, write emails, schedule out marketing content…. and all this was done WHILE I was out 3 weeks of the month so today, I’m sharing my content schedule and how I’ve been able to stay consistent.

Consistency is about much more than posting on social media all the time to tell your audience the

the latest update on your business. It’s also about being recognized for who you are and what sets your brand

apart from others.

When your brand is not consistent, you risk confusing your audience and confused people don’t

buy!

So let’s talk about some reasons why brand consistency is important (and I’m not just talking

consistency in time of posting either)!

1. Consistency builds brand recognition….

Everything should be cohesive so people can start identifying your brand. Your brand should mirror

the same experience regardless of the platform.

2. People need to be reminded

It’s estimated that potential members need to see an ad seven times before the marketing begins to

register in their mind. Attention spans are minimal so you have to continuously promote yourself and your business in some form or fashion. Remind people what you do. When people think about you, they should be vividly clear on the services you offer.

3. Establishes yourself as an expert

As a consumer, you don’t want to entrust your money to someone who doesn’t have a clue what they’re

doing or doesnt have it altogether. You want a real expert anddddddd if you want to be seen, respected and paid like an expert you have to position yourself as the expert. Your brand must look and feel polished.

Here are my current top 5 favorite (free) apps as a content creator!

TRELLO

I use this to communicate with my VA, I also use it to write all on my content and scripts out. So it doesn’t matter if I’m sitting at the vet, I can write my scripts on my phone. If I’m at the grocery store and get a content idea, its nothing for me to whip out my phone and put that idea in Trello. Plus, I use Trello to communicate with my VA and see what task are being worked on and complete.

*

GOOGLE DRIVE –

I store all of my content in Google Drive. So once I finish a video, I put that script into google drive to be formatted into a blog post.

– Once I record a video, I put my graphics in Google Drive so my VA can turn them into YouTube or Pinterest templates.

– I have all of my promo things in Google Drive to be scheduled out as well and its nice because Google Drive is where I store content.

*

PLANOLY –

Most social media platforms allow you to schedule things out such as YouTube, Facebook and Pinterest… however, Instagram does not so I use Planoly to schedule out my IG stories… specifically promos to let my audience know of a new video. I also use it for Pinterest pins and metrics. Scheduling content helps me to stay consistent.

4. MICROSOFT TO-DO –

This another app that syncs to everything… so if i’m laying in bed and I need to do something tomorrow, I’ll whip out my phone and put it on my to-do list. That morning, when I’m working on my computer. I open up my to-do list app on mac and I have the things I need to. It helps me to not forget things and I can put due dates like answer this email by Thursday. Submit this info tomorrow.

 5. WAVE APP –

I use wave app to help with my budget. I have it synced up and it allows me to see how much I spent, how much I made, my profit margins. I can also create invoices, do monthly billing for clients…. Wave is great it helps balance my business money and I’m not having to pen and notebook everything down.
