Starting a Social Media Presence
Hello all, I have more than once been encouraged to start a social media presence around my career. For those of you that don't know I am a financial advisor going for my CFP. I was told to make educational videos teaching people about different financial products. If any of you have experience making and editing videos I'd love some guidance. I would say I'm not very tech savvy and a bit camera shy. However, I want to do whatever it takes to get to the next level in my practice.

Hey Aidan, social media and recording videos can be very intimidating since in many cases (like mine personally) it is the fear of what people think when you put that content out there. I would say trust your experience and start by offering education in a "How to Avoid" when it come to your field helping people with finances. I am sure you could name off 20 topics quickly that you wish everyone knew. I have started to ramp up my social media presence again and I have found that mixing static posts with video helps to break it up so that you can have some variety. Hope this helps, happy to help with any specific questions to the best of my ability.
