It's just overwhelming to think about all the stuff that goes into video. You just ain't got time for that, right? Well, today I'm going to give you five ways that you can get started with video content right now that's not going to take you much time at all. Hey guys, welcome back to another episode of Just the Tips with Trena where I help online entrepreneurs figure out a video content strategy that works for their business business and helps their business grow.

That way you know when I upload a new video with brand new content to help you with your video content strategy. So without further ado, let's jump into these five ways you can start with video content today. The first thing to do is to repurpose your live broadcast. Now, whether you're on Periscope or Facebook Live doesn't matter. Download those videos onto your computer and then upload them onto YouTube. You can access a brand new audience that would have never found you before on Periscope or Facebook. This is essential in growing your business and it's content that you've already created. You you just need to upload it onto YouTube, give it a great keyword title and let people find it. Second, start a question and answer series on video. The reason why it's so great on video is because people can actually see you answering the questions and actually see that you know what you're talking about and it really builds your authority. Now this is an easy video to create because you can ask. You can answer the questions you get asked every day. What? Or throw it out to your social media platforms, to the people following you and tell them you're doing a Q and A and submit questions that they have. What's even better with your question and answer session is shouting out the people who ask those questions. People love to be recognized. People love to be shouted out in a video. Not only are you helping people by answering questions, but you're also building a stronger, loyal community because they really appreciate the time you take to actually say their name and shout them out. The third idea is to create A tutorial along with the questions. You probably get a lot of questions on how you do something. If there's a software that you use or a program that you use on your computer, just do a screen share and record your process. This will build your authority, this will build your trust with clients and it will really help to grow your business and take it to that next level just by showing people how you do something on a day to day basis. The next idea is to turn a blog post into a video. You already have the content written, you already have the content researched. You just need to turn that blog into a video. So go to your website and see what blogs are getting the most traffic. These are your most popular blogs and kind of check it out, see if it needs revamped a bit and turn it into a video. What's even great about this option is then you can embed that video to that blog post and get brand new SEO benefits just by embedding that video to that blog post, which means more traffic to your website. Finally, one of the best ways you can get started with video today is to plan for the future. I plan out all of my videos a week or two in advance. It's kind of like content planning. If you plan your videos out in advance and you know what videos you need to create. So then compile all those videos and record them all in one day. This is what I do. This is how I save time creating video content for my audience. Just do all the videos at once one day. If you only plan to upload once a week, that's four videos in one afternoon. And I promise you can probably get those four videos done in four hours.
