Did you know that YouTube is the second most searched site on the web?  Only Google is used more heavily.  That is because the web has become a visual medium and when people search for new products and services - when they are looking for YOU -  they expect to engage with visual content as well as text.  Today it's easier than ever to capture video interviews on the fly, record short testimonials, grab a snippet of an event or happening, demonstrate your expertise succinctly and tell a story.  But what to do next?  In this new workshop you will create a YouTube channel, optimize it and your videos for search engine optimization and develop a video content plan to draw and engage the right prospects to your website.
