Choosing a Topic for Video
You have determined which video camera to use, and you have found the perfect spot to shoot your videos. The lighting is perfect, and you have everything in place, but now you have no idea what topic to choose for your video.
You are not alone. Many understand the purpose of video and some may be aware of the benefits it has for their business in the marketing sense, but all will have times that they simply don’t know what to feature in their video. First off, you must relax, your videos will be unnatural if you are nervous. Second, share what YOU know.
The biggest mistake folks will make is their attempt to promote something they don’t know much about. It is important to do your research and simply share your ideas. Perhaps you know a subject very well, turn that knowledge into a video series that is teaching your audience. You can make a video showing step by step instructions or simply showcasing your talents.
The ideas are endless if you simply relax and approach the making of the video differently. You may consider an article you wrote and turning it into a video or perhaps some information shared on an interview that many will benefit from. Videos are great for marketing your business, whether it is a product, or a service it can easily be showcased in a video. Don’t be afraid to think out of the box and share those thoughts on video, it works!

I agree with you. I once tried to promote something I had no passion for nor did I have knowledge about it. Guess what? It flopped. I am getting ready to do a video for a giveaway and I am excited this time.
Awesome post. I will be retweeting it.
