One of the biggest questions a filmmaker can ask - How do I get clients? Today I go over one of the most effective ways we have found for getting video clients. I cover a few different methods such as Wistia Soapbox as well as a more in-depth method that works much better for us. This is the first video in the series of sales - we will be doing more on this in the future. Most of the gear from this video is linked below. Make sure to drop a sub for more content like this!

yo I've recently used this method and it worked for me! thank you so much. I used a lot of video email strategies but this is the only one with which i got a response, and that I feel most comfortable with...I hate pointing out brand's mistakes or things where they can improve just to show my expertise. thx a lot Johnny =D

This is amazing! I value your efforts in imparting knowledge and suggestions for selling videos. I'm from India, and I'll be starting at a corporate film production company the following week. What I intend to do as a result of this will be greatly enhanced. Everything has been expertly described by you. I hope to see more of this kind of content from you in the future. Compared to other people who are trying to teach things online, you are unique.

Hi mate, everytime I add the video to the email it gets added to the attachments at the bottom, meaning that when I send the email, the recipient has to download the file to see it. I want it to take up the screen like yours does so that they can just click on the playhead and it plays instantly. Any idea how I can do this? Cheers mate

Every email provider I try this with just shows the video as an attachment and not playable in the body or I have to create a link to KZfaq?

There's quite a few methods to this, typically I will just embed within the email. It also depends on which email software you are using.

If you're editing in Premiere, you can lower your target bitrate when exporting the video. Basically just keep lowering the bitrate until you get the video to about 10mb.

What's your advice on those who have a niche, but don't know who specifically to search? For example, if they're in a product centric niche how would you go about finding companies in that niche?

@jhnyhmnd 2 жыл бұрын

Instagram is a really good tool for this depending on the types of products you are interested in. Spend some time browsing the discover page for cool product companies, put together a list, then follow through and do the research on said companies to find the appropriate points of contact. Hope this helps!

It depends on what type of email you are using. In my case it's as easy as drag and drop (assuming the video is under the file size limit).

Have you found any differences in using your method vs uploading the video to KZfaq and adding the link to the email? Maybe adding a unique thumbnail to the KZfaq video could be another way of standing out?

You want to create as few obstacles as possible for the person viewing. I can't say I have tried with the link in the email so there's certainly a possibility it could work just as well or maybe even better!

I'm in the 6th minute of the video. I do like the content of your speech but the music is so distracting... I would love to watch this video again without all of those distractions, like the trumpet in the background and the squirrel nuts or the new follower. Like I said, I love the content you want to hand over, and this is why I'm here but all those distractions just take my time because I lose focus on what you are speaking about. I had to rewind quite a few times.
