I got an opportunity to pitch Gary Vaynerchuk recently. He sent out an email to his subscribers to send him a 30sec pitch video.
So I jumped at the chance. My video is kind of rough but it basically covers everything.
After completing cutting down my original demo video it made me realise that I can pretty much fit it all into 30secs and so long as the file is under 33mb (mine is currently at 35mb) I could attach it to the outgoing email. Instead of just sending a link to Youtube.
I’m hoping that having the video in the email may encourage the recipient to at least be curious enough to click on it. Providing it makes it through the ‘spam filter’ that is.
Either way, having to really condense everything into 30 secs forced me to get it done quickly and I like it. So now that it’s done I’m going to send it to as many businesses as I can with the goal of getting comfortable with people critiquing it.
