Over the last 2 years, I've helped 100's of people start getting leads using video. But there is a mistake I continue to see over and over again. It could be the one thing holding you back from getting leads with your video content. Most of us have become great writers and content creators by building our online business. So, when I start helping someone with their video content, we usually don't get stuck on exactly what to say or how to say it. If you're creating valuable and helpful content and providing relevant information to your target audience but fail to guide them on how you can help them You won't be getting leads. You'll be getting a bucket full of "Thank you's," "This was so helpful," and "Great insight!" So instead, we end up focusing more on the little things. Because it is these little things that often have the biggest effect. One of the smallest factors having the biggest effect on how many leads you'll capture? → Your Call-to-Action (CTAs) Start taking notes, because you can apply this to your next video. In the past (we're talking 2020 here), it was easier to acquire clients. Everyone and their dog was looking for an opportunity online. It was a lot easier to ask people to "Shoot you a DM," or "Book a free call to learn more." These days, people need a little bit more to take action. The biggest lever to pull to get your audience to take action is by using social proof at the end of your video. Here's an example (Steal this framework on your next educational video): You're an accountant who just posted a video on your "3 best tips on how to save money on taxes in 2025." Instead of: "DM me to learn more." You're going to say something like: "We applied these 3 steps to a sales manager last year, and it enabled them to get an extra $2,400 in deductions that they might've missed out on. So if you want to maximize your deductions in 2025 shoot me a follow, or send me a DM and I'll just do it for you." When people see that other people are getting the success they're not. It creates a missing opportunity in their mind, and you've just positioned yourself to fill that gap. P.S.

Elevating founders with social video. I'll put your video on "easy mode" and drive revenue on LinkedIn and beyond.
A while back, I worked with a founder who was spending hours trying to create video content for LinkedIn. Three days a week, he’d sit down, open a blank doc, and try to come up with ideas. Sometimes he’d get one video out.Other times, nothing. Then, he’d scroll LinkedIn and see people posting videos daily - and they were actually getting engagement. “I feel like everyone else has this figured out,” he told me. Sound familiar? It's hard not to get down on yourself when you feel like this...
Over the last four years, I’ve posted over 3,000 videos on social media. Even though I was resistant, I got started because I knew I couldn't build the brand and business I wanted without putting myself out there. Writing posts and designing carousels was good. But seeing someone’s face, hearing their voice, and feeling their energy—that’s what truly connects people. Here are my four biggest lessons: Lesson 1: Quantity Leads To Quality I used to overthink every video, but the truth is—the...
