INSIGHT

Video Replaces In-Person Connection

Video replaces in-person presence and emotionally engages audiences faster than text.
A single brand trust video can create that connection without constant live appearances.

ADVICE

Make One Evergreen Trust Video

Create one three-minute brand trust video and place it top-of-funnel across profiles and your about page.
Use it as evergreen real estate to pre-sell cold audiences before any pitch.
