Should You Create Scripts For Your Videos?
The cold hard facts are that you are not an actor. Sorry. However, there is a better way. On today's episode of Digital Champions, I discuss the common question - Should You Create Scripts For Your Videos.
Often people ask me, do I script my videos? And the answer is no I don't.
And the reason being is, that is a lot of time and work to be writing word for word what I'm going to say. And the truth is, if you're an expert in your business, you should know what you are going to say. Most of the time we're designing our content based on what we know, we're supposed to be the experts. We should be able to talk about what it is that we know.
One of the big things that happens that I see with scripts is that people come off like they're reading and it's so obvious as you noticed in the beginning clip that I showed. It's so monotone and most people lacked the skills to do this successfully.
The truth is we're not actors, you're not an actor. It's very unlikely that you're gonna be...

How To Create Videos More Effectively
Ohhhhh no!!!!! There was supposed to be a video today!! Have you ever had that thought? Or do you just film sporadically when you feel motivated? On today's episode of Digital Champions, I discuss How To Create Videos More Effectively.
Well, it's pretty simple...
Plan. Plan. Plan. Plan.
Yes, planning is key.
There are a few things that I wanna go over that is gonna make it so much easier for you to be more effective and it's all focused on planning your filming.
1. Batch Your Filming
Filming multiple videos at one time is an absolute must for you to be able to create content consistently while saving time. That way you only have to set up your studio once.
This was my ninth video filmed on the day of recording this episode. Now, you don't necessarily have to film nine, but generally, I recommend you do film six to eight, as you can tell, I'm an overachiever, but you wanna make sure that you're batching at least a good amount based on how quickly you can get them out.
Think...
Should You Post To Your Business Or Personal Page?
I see this mistake all the time - using a personal page for their business. On today's episode of Digital Champions, I discuss why it is so important for you to be using a business page instead of your personal page.
This is one of the most common mistakes that I've see people doing, where they're consistently trying to build their brand or build their business on their personal pages. By far no question, it is critical that you build your business on a business page.
The reason why a lot of people have a tendency to want to do it on their personal page is that they're getting more likes, they're getting more engagement on their personal page because the algorithms favor the personal accounts over the business accounts unless you're paying money. If you've watched a lot of my videos, you know that paying to play is always a good strategy in spending some advertising dollars.
Nick, what do you mean?
You just said the algorithms better on the personal pages but I should share...

How To Grow Your Social Media Channels
On today's episode of digital champions, I'm talking about how to grow your social media following.
What are the most effective ways to grow your social media following and this works for all the platforms, is personally directly inviting people to follow your channels. This can be very effective, I don't necessarily recommend that you directly invite them to every single one of your channels. You can, it may work, but it's more effective if you do one at a time.
You send out to some friends, "Hey, I'm really looking to build my YouTube subscribers, can you please subscribe?" Now you send out some Facebook messages, "Hey, I'm looking to grow my Facebook page, would you mind subscribing?"
The reason why a personal invite is so effective, it's 'cause you're taking the time to invite them and it's personal, and it's a lot harder to say no and it's not a big ask. To ask somebody to follow your page is a simple thing that they can do. And if you took the time to invite them personally...
