How do you keep interest once someone has started watching your video? The first 5-8 seconds of your video intro are critical.

This is the first video in a series looking at what expert video creators do to keep viewer interest. This one looks at examples covering intros on the following; landing pages, online course creation, and video SEO.

Of course what each expert does is driven by their audience and their own personality.

The various examples shown provide a window into what you might use. The danger is in using techniques others use without regard to your own personality or alignment with your audience.

Also techniques that one expert uses because they have gained a certain level of authority don’t always work when just starting out.

This and more discussed as it aligns with doing Facebook Lives.
