1. Begin with your customers.
“I think the best place to start for a business that wants to create video content is to make video for your existing clients,” Hertzberg says. When you start thinking about videos you want to make, focus on giving away knowledge. Educate your consumers by giving them information that will improve their lives.
2. Don’t know where to start? Ask your audience.
If you’re lost about which type of video content to produce, go right to the source. Take to social media and ask your audience what they want and need. An AMA is an easy place to start for live video, plus you’ll learn more topics to spin into future video content.
3. Keep it short and sweet.

4. Don’t freak out about platform.
