The Best Creators Do This

You're driving down the highway. You spy one of those signs that say, "Do billboards work?"

It just did. 


A lot of people think doing video content on LinkedIn starts by actually doing the video. 


(but there's actually a step before that.)


It really starts by watching other people’s video content. 


(which, hey, you’re doing that right now) 


From my years of doing video content, I’ve realized the people who make the best content for themselves are the people who consume the most from others. 


That’s right: the best creators are the best consumers. 


(this makes sense. the best authors are the ones who read the most books…the best directors the ones who watch the most films…) 


So congrats, your addiction to scrolling LinkedIn has come in handy. You’ve already started your journey to making video for your business. 


Now you don’t get hung up on the second step, which is to actually shoot some videos.
