YouTube livestreams-worth a second look

I have done live video in the past, most recently last weekend on an impromptu, unscheduled YouTube livestream. I have done a little research into the value of livestreams on YouTube and it appears that there are significant benefits including building a closer connection to your audience and the continued utility of the video on… Continue reading YouTube livestreams-worth a second look

My long form video experiment on YouTube seeks to exploit the ‘binge watch’ phenomenon

I am trying something new on my YouTube channel today. I am going to upload an extra-long video-up to 1 hour or thereabouts-to see how it performs. And the great thing about this particular tactic is I do not have to make any new content, or only an extremely small piece of new content. What… Continue reading My long form video experiment on YouTube seeks to exploit the ‘binge watch’ phenomenon

20,000 YouTube subscribers-I have reached a milestone

I reached a milestone yesterday when I noticed I had reached 20,000 subscribers to my YouTube channel. It is hard to believe given I am a one man band and have made all the videos myself since the first in 2010 or 2011.

YouTube Livestream-doing my first one in 2022 this morning

I am doing my first YouTube Livestream in 2022 this morning. The last one was in December 2021. I have toyed in the past with the idea of going live much more regularly-for example, once a week and trying to develop a regular show at the same time, same day, same place every week or… Continue reading YouTube Livestream-doing my first one in 2022 this morning

The power of video in building connection and client growth

I have written previously about the power of video to help with personal brand development and lead/client generation for my solicitor’s practice. But I am regularly reminded of how formidable that power really is. Often when I meet people for consultations or to give them advice, they say openly that they watch all my videos… Continue reading The power of video in building connection and client growth
