5 Videos Every Local Business Owner Can Record With Their Phone

Creating video content for your business does not have to mean expensive equipment, complicated scripts, or spending hours trying to figure out what to say.

If you have a phone and 10 minutes, you can get started.

Here are five simple videos almost any local business owner can record:

1. Answer a Common Question

Think about something customers ask you all the time. Put your phone up, hit record, and answer it just like you would if a customer were standing in front of you.

2. Show What You’re Working On

Record 10 to 20 seconds of a job, project, appointment, or normal part of your workday. You don’t even have to talk. Give people a look behind the scenes.

3. Explain One Thing Customers Get Wrong

What is something people commonly misunderstand about your industry? Explain it in simple terms.

4. Show a Finished Result

Finished a project or helped a customer solve a problem? Show the result and briefly explain what you did.

5. Introduce Yourself

This one gets overlooked. Tell people your name, what your business does, and who you typically help. People like knowing who is behind the business before they reach out.

You do not need to record all five at once. Pick one today, prop your phone up somewhere with decent lighting, and record it.

Your first video probably won’t be your best video. That’s okay.

The goal is to start showing people who you are, what you do, and why they should trust you.
