So, how do you do that on video?
I was asked recently “how do you speak in soundbites?” This expert was going to be a guest on a podcast and needed a crash course. It made me consider doing a masterclass JUST on talking in soundbites because this takes practice and time to master but here’s how I responded:
Much of this follows my construct of a soundbite. Tell me why I should care, put that in headline form and that’s the first thing out of your mouth. Then give me the meat (these are 1 of the 3 to 5 takeaways you want the listener or viewer to garner from your appearance (they don’t have bandwidth for more than this). Then end on the chill factor (something that is memorable leaving you with chills down your spine). I expand A LOT on this in my teachings, but this is a start and is also in my Secrets to Stellar Storytelling freebie!
You need to do the same thing in every single video you are sharing, creating, and cultivating.
Being confident on video or on-camera is the key to getting people to know, like, and trust you, which converts into more business (read: profit) and it’s only possible through my course Crush it on Video. I developed this methodology after 15 years on-camera at NBC News, MSNBC, CNN and TODAY Show.
