Video marketing is, without a doubt, one of the biggest reasons I’ve been able to create a multiple 6-figure business online. It is the core of just about everything I do… whether it be blogging and creating content, marketing/keyword targeting, or making video sales pages and capture pages. It’s the most powerful marketing and communication medium that we have online… And the most effective.
When you master video, it increases your conversions, helps you build automated relationships, drives you automated traffic, and solidifies your online presence and brand online. And want to help you do just that!

Great video Katie!
Just thought I would throw out my lighting secrets for those looking for a really professional results on a budget…
You can purchase from home depot for around $49 (or less) professional lights that are around 1200 watts. You will find these in the work light section.. These are very powerful lighting that matches up with the expensive camera lights. Simply point them up at the ceiling above your head. (This will bounce the light off the ceiling and eliminate you very well.) You WILL get very professional results using this very budget wise method.
Hope this helps others! But most important as Katie says, start using video. You will see a real difference in your marketing!

Thanks Dave, I have so much trouble with lighting and I never thought of going to home depot. I always thought that eventually I would have to purchase professional lighting.
Good tip on bouncing off the ceiling as well.

Thanks Katie for another great video. I loved your tips and even though I have been doing video for a couple of years, I still learned a few new things.
Wow! Thanks Katie. Your free information is way better than most of the training that I’ve paid for.
I always look forward to your blog posts. You have helped me a lot in my own business.
Dave
Hey Katie!!
These tips are fantastic! Video is no doubt the way to go. It’s the best way to connect with people online.
I get alot of people who tell me that being on video makes them nervous but it’s absolutely imperative to get over that fear in the Internet marketing industry.
Appreciate you sharing this knowledge today!

Yo Katie,
Excellent Tips! The clarity of your video is awesome. Content of video is perfect too! I picked up some awesome tips. I was laughing about your lighting! lol, you’re so real!
Hi Katie,
Thanks so much for your leadership and all that you do…
You are right..
Video marketing is definitely the most powerful of the free marketing strategies to get interest for what you are doing.. It is what put me on the map and is still where I get the best results in my marketing efforts.. Prospects that go through funnels that are highly populated with my videos are so much more easier to talk to .. It is like talking to an old freind when you get them on the phone.. They are warm, friendly and eager to talk to you…
Thanks for sharing these great tips
Rock on Katie

Thank you again Katie for yet another great value packed video!
I’ve had great results from video, the most valuable thing that comes from it for me is people feeling they know me – everything I feel or think is plastered on my face (I haven’t ever managed to hide my thoughts or feelings!).
Thank you again, consider this tweeted and onlywired

Hey Katie, you are such a natural in front of the camera! Thank you for sharing your top ten video marketing tips.
Everyone is so unique and has something great to offer by sharing their own personality and style. I am glad you shared that your first few times filming, you were not exactly comfortable on camera and was looking all around.
Take Care,

Hi Katie,
Great tips! Alicia and I are moving all of our marketing to include video because of the proven power for generating traffic and for connecting with our audience. With 60% of online traffic being driven by video it is definitely an essential part of any online business marketing plan!

Hi Katie,
And thanks for the video creation tips, I’m certain they will help a lot of people in their video creation endeavors.
Just to clear one thing up though, I think what Dave (The Hitman) Nosker meant to say was the lights shining off of the ceiling will “illuminate” you.
God knows we don’t want to “eliminate” you. After all there is only one of you.
Have a great day and thanks again for the tips.
Jeff Walters
Well done Katie, I also like the lighting tip that Dave gave because I agree with you about the importance of good lighting. Have a great day!!

HELLO Katie, Not only did I want to say Hello but I just wanted to thank you for your 10 free tips. Some of them I already knew, however as I have not started using video I obviously have not used any of them. I will be using video in the future and I will definitely use all of your tips when I do. I have been an amateur photographer for some time now. I really love photography as a hobby. While doing my Photography especially wedding Photos I have learned quite a little about lighting. Maybe when I start doing video that should be one of the first things I talk about in my videos. What do you think?

Thanks Katie for sharing some great video tips! I am still struggling to get over being nervous in front of the video (Ive never been one that has a gift in talking to people and getting my thoughts out right so Ive resorted to develop writing skills) I will definitely work more at it and overcome my fear! Thanks Katie!

Katie,
Do you know that one of the reasons vidoes working for you so well is because you are beautiful and look great in video?
Hi Harry… You know, that obviously doesn’t hurt. But it’s not what really makes video effective for marketing. It comes down to your ability to captivate an audience, share value, and speak clearly. Your inner confidence is much more important than outer appearance
I agree 100% on that Katie.
Thanks Katie!
I think I’m going to get back into doing videos for my site. I was doing YouTube videos at one point but strayed away. Not exactly sure why, I think I wanted to focus most of my attention on keeping my daily blogs active and marketing. But from watching your video, I see the importance of implementing video into my personal brand. Thanks for sharing!!

Much Success
Awesome tips that are very fundamental.
I gotta get my camera out and get to work.
Love Viddler too.
Peace out Katie…
Great video. Thanks for the tips.
Honey you are very lovely on camera, and I am not, I am 69 and so not very attractive, however I find your information very useful and thank your for your mentoring. While some of us are lost in this biz your an angel sent to guide us, thank you.
………. Otto ……..
Katie
As always Thank you for giving great value. I came to know you only a month ago when you released your manifesto and I have learned so much since then. I am new to internet marketing and knowing you has been the best thing. I found out about blogging, personal branding, and many other internet marketing education.
And today I learned the importance of video marketing.
Others charge money for what you generously give for free.
Thank you again

Hey Katie,
Another great video as always. You come across so natural and genuine in your videos. I also can see what you mean about looking at the camera because it feels like you are talking directly to me.
Obviously this didn’t happen to anyone else because I didn’t see anything in the comments, but when I was watching the video when I got to the 11 minute mark my screen went black and my computer froze.
It happened twice in a row and my computer is brand new and I’m running an anti-virus. So I’m not sure what happened but I just wanted to give you the heads up in the event you hear this from anyone else. I’m gonna go directly to Viddler and watch this time to see what happens.
Take Care… P.S. I recently added you on Skype as well.

Hi Karen! Awww, thank you so much! Love hearing that!
Thanks for this, Katie. I’m nodding to each of these points!! (especially the hook) Something that I’ve been starting to do is give the feature, benefit, but even the opposite (or fear of loss) within those first precious seconds!
Awesome other tips – I never really knew much about lighting.. I’m more of the musician, so I’m going to be putting some music to my videos.
.-= Paul Klaszus´s last blog ..My Tribe Syndication Journey =-.
Thank you for sharing Katie!
I see yo are using Viddler here, and this is a Public Video.
My question is:
How can you upload on your Blog pages Private videos, and I mean those like yor 7-Day Series, that only subscribers are able to watch in your “hidden” pages?
Is there a Private-option on Viddler?
.-= Francesco´s last blog ..Picture yourself in the future and share what you’ll love to do! =-.
Can you make the video compatible with iPad. There are over a million of us that want to see you on iPad.
Haha, yeah that’s a great idea!
Great Video Katie,
I always feel like I get valuable content from your blogs. I am also going to try out Dave Noskers suggestions on lighting.What a great solution for inexpensive equipment. Thanks Dave.

Hi Katie,
You are always giving great information for all of us to learn.
Video is definitely powerful, and learning new techniques from someone like yourself is well worth the time.
Thanks for the information.
Hey Katie,
Your tips are great, i’m into online video communication applications, our company provides video mailing, your personal video portal, video-web meeting/conferencing, live video web-casting live and interactive broadcasting online all at very a very affordable price worldwide.
I use video extensively and it is way better than typing anything and plus people believe what they see, not everything they read. IF you’re interested in using the above video features you could email me at sukhdev1234@hotmail.com
Katie, you rock, i’m always looking forward to hearing from you
God bless you for the work you’re doing!
CHEERS!
Thanks for the great tips Katie! Hope you have a great weekend!

Hi Katie,
Thanks for the video tips, they were really helpful! I am just getting started with my video blogging, so I can use all of the help I can get. LOL
Christine
Katie- Great video! Thanks for all the tips. I have the Flip camera and tripod. My question is how do you start/stop the camera on the tripod with reaching forward? Or do you manually start/stop the camera and then edit out the portions when you’re reaching forward to the camera.
Chris Thompson
Hey Chris! Yeah, I just edit out the very beginning and the very end when I get up to start/stop the camera. If you have a camcorder with a remote, that’ll save you from needing to do that, but it’s no biggie
Another Wonderful and Valuable Post. Katie, Thanks for sharing and caring about us newbies. LOL I will definately be able to use this information for I am working on videos now. I have two, but need to edit them or maybe reshoot! Thanks again!
I guess this means I’m going to have to ‘put my face on’ every day now then. sigh. Not that it makes me look good, it just stops me looking like Frankenstein’s Bride. Well, nearly LOL
Great tips Katie, some things to be working on for sure.
.-= Ruby Rynne´s last blog ..Another H Word You Need to Know =-.
Great video Katie! We are going to start adding more videos to our site. Thanks!
Hi Katie,
thank you for sharing these great tips! Video is indeed the way to go and such a powerful way too! People love to see who is talking to them, they are tired of reading long emails. And whatever the reason you use video for (marketing, sharing content, etc.), the impact of video is certainly much greter and helps you building a more personal relationship with your followers.
I’m now organizing by blog so that I can include videos and I’m practicing with my new video autoresponder too!
Well done Katie!
Paola
You know, I just have to say…
Every time you put something out there, it really does inspire me… You’re like a fire ignition of momentum and creative push. I really really appreciate that! My ultimate creative directions are very different from yours, but I find a lot of value in what you do simply because you help light a fire under my booty! It gets me going. Thank you….
