Question for the business owners of the community...
Omar Question What exactly are you looking for from The Video Dept? I've been struggling with that as I try to make my own thing and learn from what Omar and The Video Dept has built. I've probably watched every video on the channel at least 2x, and they've been incredibly informative. I just finished the most recent Content 2 Cash challenge, and it was helpful. However, one thing that I'm still trying to wrap my brain around as I move forward is: "What are you looking for and willing to pay for from The Video Dept or any similar service?" For example, If I'm a - let's just use Barbershop Owner. I guess I want to use video to increase my visibility. So what am I making? Am I going to The Video Dept to help me make a traditional commercial spot? A talking head that says, "Come to my shop (while I show a few great end result hair cuts)?" Am I making 1 video long form video a week on YouTube and a a couple business related Quality of Life videos on IG? I guess I'm trying to figure out how these videos actually get butts in seats of my barbershop? I'm a video content guy and I worked briefly at a local podcast studio here in Vegas, and I'm still struggling with these questions even after I've met people that make a few podcasts. I'm asking, not to throw shade but to get clarity so I can move forward. The most recent EXCELLENT episode of The Video Dept with Brenden Boyd literally talks about the value of having a digital product. Ok, so is the value in creating a bunch of How-to videos like you can get for free from Omar himself on YouTube? Are you (as the business owner) looking for coaching in how to create a weekly process to make consistent videos? How to make good titles? Are you looking for a place to shoot everything and edit it and return it to you packaged and ready to go like a boutique? The impression that I get is that Omar used to do more of the physical 'build your studio for you' or shoot you in our space thing, but has pivoted away because people are willing to pay for.....
