Episode Highlights

“There are a bunch of hurdles with video!” Tony laughed as we began. I confessed to being challenged by DIY video.

Video is a part of everything. But how do we use it better? “Video is a tactic but it’s a tactic that needs its own strategy.”

What brand videos does the video guy like? I couldn’t wait to ask Tony this. “GoPro does such a great job with user-generated content.” He also pointed us to J.Crew which creates engaging behind-the-scenes videos about how they chose colors.

What brand has made Tony smile recently? Tony told us about the videos from Milwaukee Tool Company that feature the organization's own in-house rock band.
