Produce – Think about the vision you are looking to bring to life and be detailed in relaying that to your video production company. Once you’ve identified what message you’re looking to send, it becomes a much smoother transition into filming. Plus, less edits!
Promote – Take that new video link and post it accordingly. Now it’s time to drive awareness of your message or product and measure the relative impact you’ve gained.
