Making a testimonial video is very simple:
1. Film a 1 - 2-minute testimonial video with your phone or webcam.
2. Send me the video as an email or SMS message, or post it as a public video on YouTube and share the link with me.
Ideas to talk about in the video:
-
Value: Is what you received worth the price? (Don’t mention the price in case it changes)
-
Unique: Is my training innovative and different from others?
-
Easy: Has it been easy to learn online?
-
Me: Do you feel like I’m a good instructor? That I care? Personal?
-
Transformational: Has the training transformed any other areas of your life?
Possible video outline:
-
What was your training/skill level/confidence like before joining?
-
Did you have any concerns before you signed up that you couldn’t learn online?
-
What has the training been like?
-
What is your training/skill level/confidence/life like now?
-
If someone is not sure about joining, what would you tell them?
Filming Tips:
-
Write out a few bullet points or key points you want to make
-
Shoot the video with the phone on its side/landscape view
-
Make sure the light in front of you is causing a shadow on your face. Sunlight works best
-
Do not have bright lights behind you
-
Film in a quiet area so your easy to hear
-
DO NOT try to be perfect. People don’t trust well-produced videos. Just be yourself!
-
Don’t worry about editing. If you send me the video I can trim off the beginning and ends before using it. If you mess up in the middle and restart, just let me know and I can cut those parts out.
