Pablo Gonzalez shares his journey from construction sales to Silicon Valley tech evangelist and reveals how video professionals can create more predictable income by solving "Monday morning problems," stacking value beyond just delivering footage, and packaging their services as experiences rather than products.
Key Takeaways
- Create offers that solve immediate business problems first (like testimonial videos) before trying to sell big vision projects - this builds trust that lets you eventually sell those larger projects
- Package your video services as experiences rather than products - such as turning client testimonial videos into a VIP day that makes both your client and their customers feel special
- Look for ways to "stack value" by providing additional deliverables that make it easier for clients to use and share their videos (like providing captions, email copy, and suggested posting strategies)
- Find a specific niche to serve repeatedly - this creates insights that lead to better offers, more referrals, and a more predictable business
