At the end of the video, tell the viewer what to do next. Every video you produce should have a specific purpose behind it and a call to action that will drive business to your door. Here are some examples: • "Call now to schedule an appointment." • "Visit www.mywebsite.com to see how I can help you with your skin care needs in person." • "In our next video, we'll show you the next step of this procedure, so be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more!" • "To learn more about the products I've shown you today, or to purchase, click on the link below or visit www.mywebsite.com." Upload Your Video Sign up for a free YouTube account if you don't already have one. There are many video-sharing sites, and if you want more exposure, you can add your video to as many of them as you like, but YouTube is the go-to site for most people. As an added bonus, Google gives preference to YouTube videos in search results, which makes your videos much more likely to be seen. Most smartphones allow you to directly upload the video you've just created with a simple "Upload to YouTube" button. If you're more technically minded, you can upload the video to your computer first to edit it in a program like Adobe Premiere or Windows Movie Maker. Maximize the Opportunities Once your video is on YouTube, you should also put it on your website, social media pages, and anywhere else you have an online presence. Always include a link to your main business website everywhere you post your content. Don't forget to engage and connect with the viewers your videos attract! Your response can attract even more views, create conversations, and inspire new video topics —as well as being good, professional customer service and a boost for your business.
