Visionary Voices w/ Ida Azefor

We had the pleasure of speaking with Michael Abramowitz, CEO and Co-founder of Braid, a new app that’s making it super easy to create share-worthy clips in minutes!

In this day and age where content creation is the bread & butter of business, professional services (accountants, lawyers, etc) are yet to catch up. If you’ve been thinking of getting started with content creation and you’re frightened by the tech, Braid is for you.

If you want your partners/ associates sharing their wisdom & expertise on video with the intention of creating marketing material for your business, while still keeping your billable hours, Braid is for you.

If you’ve wanted to collect testimonials from your clients and find it hard to do so, Braid is for you.

In this episode, we dive into the story of Braid, its pivot from a social media app to a tool to serve professional service business (and more) with the need for content creation from the experts.

Have you used Braid? Learn more in this week’s episode of Visionary Voices Podcast.
