How To Make Great Videos Even If You're Not A Pro
By:Laura Kuhn

I usually tell people not to work on their weaknesses and instead focus on their strengths when it comes to business, but if you want to be a successful internet marketer you have to do video marketing.

Why?

Well, by the year 2013, 90% of all consumer traffic will be video. Do you want to be targeting ONLY 10% of buyers along with millions of other marketers that don't want to do videos. That is a very small piece of the pie to share with so many people.

Instead, it's time to hone your skills and start making videos. The sooner you start the better.

What you must remember when making videos is that your audience can see your body language and hear your tone. If you are the slightest nervous about anything it will come through. Unfortunately no one wants start a business with a person who is not completely confident. People are searching online for their 'rock'. If you can project confidence through video, than you can be that rock.

I find that most people are nervous about the same few things:

1. What to say
2. How they look
3. How their house looks

I'm going to show you how to stop making excuses and start making videos.

As for what to say, you should look around online and find videos that make you want to take actions, whether it is opt-in or buy something. Transcribe the video and then make it fit your life. It's important to be truthful in your videos, because people will be able to see when you are lying.

Most likely the videos that you like have a part in them where the person say "...and then I made $65,000 in one month" or "... and I was able to recruit 35 people in 6 days". You can make an enticing video without these large result statements.

For instance, let's say you are promoting a product that helped you generate some leads. You can say " I started generating leads immediately and watched my business grow" This is truthful. There are always ways to tell people about the good things happening in your business that might imply money without having to lie.

As for how you look, there are lots of ways to make movies without having to actually be on camera. You can film interesting backgrounds and just have your voice on the video. Also, you can make powerful presentations with moving text and pictures using Keynote or Powerpoint Also you can get creative. Maybe have you kids do the lines or make it seem like your dog is talking. The best answer is to find a way to be happy with the way you look and realize that your imperfections are what will make people attracted to you. Not everyone wants to work with a perfect looking princess. Many people prefer to work with REAL people who have real imperfections. The key is to be happy with your imperfections. This mindset will help other people overcome their insecurities. People will pay money to be around someone who makes them feel better about themselves. Embrace your true self.

Ok, enough self help...

This last one is easy. A lot of people know their house does not look like the house of a successful person and don't want people to see their true situation. There are some real simple solutions. Sit close to a wall so you just have a blank wall behind you. Or sit behind curtains. You can always hang a sheet up and sit in front of it. If you have kids, you can go to the park and have kids playing in the background. You don't have to be in your house. You can be at the beach or sitting outside at a restaurant.

If you can get over your insecurities, you can present yourself with confidence on camera. Projecting confidence is key to building a strong business.

If you know that this a something that will be difficult for you there is another solution.
