Stuck wondering what to say in your videos?


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 should be simple.

You think "I should be able to sit here, and talk about the things I already know about... How hard can it be?"

But that's not the way it usually works out.

You end up getting in your head, fumbling over your words, and slapping a CTA on the end that doesn't drive results.

Or, you're out here creating videos on a consistent basis, but still - none of them are producing sales - let alone leads.

What gives?

Here’s the thing: creating content isn’t about finding the perfect idea.
It’s about having a simple system that keeps you consistent, and drives consistent results.

That’s exactly why I created the ECP framework: Educate, Connect, Promote.

It breaks content into three simple buckets so you never run out of things to post.

I’ll show you how to break it all down step-by-step so you can create 30 days of content without overthinking or wasting time.

1. EDUCATE (Position yourself as the expert)

Answer the top 8 questions your audience asks you over and over.

For example, if you’re in finance, one might be:
👉 “What can I deduct on my taxes?”

That’s a post right there. Answer it in your own words, no fluff, just value.

🔹 Pro tip: Write content in the same language your customers use. If they ask, “Should I add subtitles to my videos?” use that exact wording. It makes your content more relatable.

2. CONNECT (Build trust & credibility)

People don’t buy from brands. They buy from people.

This is where you share your personal journey, bold opinions, or behind-the-scenes insights.

Examples:
• “Here’s why you should NEVER use a teleprompter for your videos.”

• “I used to think [industry norm] was the key to success—turns out, I was wrong.”

• “This is the biggest mistake I made in my first year creating content…”

These posts get engagement, build your brand, and make people actually want to work with you.

3. PROMOTE (Turn views into leads, without hard selling)

Here’s the truth: Sales content won’t always go viral. But it’s what makes people buy.

Instead of hard selling, just share what you’re working on and the results you’re getting.

Example:
“I helped a client create 3 LinkedIn videos, and they got twice the engagement of her normal posts. Here’s what we did…”

This positions you as an expert without sounding salesy.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “This sounds great, but how do I actually plan all of this?”

That’s where my 4-Week Content Calendar comes in.

I put together plug-and-play video hooks that take the guesswork out of content creation, so you know exactly what to post and when.

No more overthinking. No more blank screens.
Just a system that actually brings in leads.

As much as it pains me to say this… I’m pressing pause on vertical video on LinkedIn. The keyword here is “vertical.” For the time being, I’m going ONLY to post landscape videos for LinkedIn. And yeah, this is a big deal for me. I built my ENTIRE brand and business doing vertical video on LinkedIn. So why am I doing this? Unfortunately, LinkedIn has some serious UX problems with vertical video. Let me explain… First, let me show you the data. I ran an experiment with my last 20 videos. 10...

All my life, I've been told to think positively. But last week I realized that's TERRIBLE advice. I had a conversation with Evan Marks, a top performance coach who works with elite athletes and entrepreneurs. And he completely shifted my perspective... Success doesn't come from wishful thinking. It DOESN'T come from thinking at all! Success comes from: Taking action before you feel ready Setting realistic expectations for yourself Approaching every task with a positive attitude Here's what...

I have a terrible confession. I am sitting on an absolute goldmine. And I’ve been keeping this from you for over a year now. Lying to you, lying to my clients, lying to everyone. So, here it goes… Every week, I interview high-level experts for their video content. CEOs, founders, marketing experts, sales leaders, you name it. PHEW. Okay, got that off my chest. Now that monkey’s off my back, let me tell you more… As you probably know, I ask them questions, help them share their expertise, and...
