Ben Amos is the creative director of Innovate Media, one of the leading online video strategy agencies in Australia. He is a passionate video producer, speaker, and educator helping brands around the world improve their video storytelling skills and uplevel their video marketing strategy. The transition of Ben’s company from a simple video production company to a video strategy agency was triggered by his desire to produce results for his clients and teach them how to be effective and strategic storytellers.
Ben joins me to share why every online business owner needs a video strategy. He shares the common mistake business owners make when they create video content and why overwhelm is the biggest problem when planning to execute video strategy. He also explains the different types of videos you should create for clients in different parts of the funnel as well as why he recommends vlogging and how to be consistent in doing it as part of your video strategy.
