Lou Bortone provides a system for creating professional marketing videos on a weekly basis in less time than it takes to write an ezine. The system involves scheduling one day per month to film 4 videos back-to-back using a streamlined 5-step process of determining goals, selecting platforms, crafting messages, shooting, and promoting. Videos are released one per week to provide a steady stream of engaging content that generates leads and attracts new clients through greater visibility and credibility. The simple yet effective approach allows busy entrepreneurs and small business owners to leverage the power of video marketing with minimal time investment.

You’re leaving money on the table and losing out on exciting
opportunities because you’re not using video marketing.
…Or perhaps you’re using it, but you’re
not getting the results you should be Which really just means you’re not using it
right!
!
This is having a negative impact on you
and your business in terms of time, money
and freedom! You’re trapped…
14. -
Challenges
• Video is overwhelming when you don’t know what to do…
It’s hard to find the time to plan and shoot your videos
•
• You’re not sure what equipment or software you need to do it right
• You don’t even like being on camera!
You’re unsure about the process and right steps to take
•
• You don’t know how to leverage and distribute your video once it’s done
• You just don’t know where to begin…
15. -
Even More Challenges
• One, two or three videos is not enough to move the dial
• You have to produce quality videos consistently
• And you have to look like a pro to build and maintain your credibility
• This is hard to do without a system in place
It’s even harder if you don’t have the accountability to make sure you get it done
•
• Then once your video is done, you need to know how to get views!
16. Fact:
Most videos never get
more than 100 views.
1
53% get fewer than 500
2
30% get less than 100
3
0.33% get over 1 million

more engaging with your potential clients… Video! It's not hard to do and can be done
faster than most other lead generating strategies- if you know the secrets on how.
