Keep Calm and Do More Video

[Music] okay so uncertain times ahead I'm a father a husband and a business owner and objet is pretty daunting and a little bit scary but in the spirit of positivity I want to let you know about the bear jam team and our network of freelancers are ready to help we have in place a remote production setup and as ever I'm here to encourage you to do more video so why should you be doing more video well as we work from home and well-spotted I am working from home just in fact I did the kitchen just for you so as we work from home self isolate and practice social distancing I think keeping in touch by video may become a really important social interaction from a business perspective it is a great way to keep in touch with customers and staff perhaps show leadership by communicating and showing calm and confidence and also videos a great tool when you're collaborating with teams so what can you do well first and foremost video calls zoom FaceTime Skype Google Hangouts and loads loads more use these way you can remember video allows you to connect more emotionally than just on a call or in an email I'm sure we've all experienced that time when an email is kind of missing it understood or misinterpreted and a face to face would have just been so much better so if you're making calls we've got a meeting scheduled try to incorporate video in some way so if you want or need to communicate something that's a little bit more polish like a presentation or a sales pitch and you want to include animation or perhaps other visuals to explain or demonstrate something then of course we can help with that we've got our scripting team editors animators all working from home remotely ready to go so what can you and your business be doing in terms of video well you could repurpose videos for new relevant messages you perhaps update some existing content you could look at creating cut downs of existing content for your social channels you could even look at creating new content maybe share helpful audience specific messages that could lead to staff customers suppliers managers whoever is it time to think about updating your marketing collateral perhaps your company website needs a new video or an updated video remember you don't necessarily have to shoot something there are plenty of creative ways to communicate to your audience and we can help so I plan to create some new videos to help people do more video so if you've got any specific ideas or topics you want me to cover then please do get in touch I'd love to hear from you so stay healthy keep going on and do more video and wash your hands [Music]
