SUMMARY:The Distinct Advantage of Video
DESCRIPTION:Video is one of the largest gaps (and opportunities) in business today. It has the potential to enhance communication with prospects\, clients\, and co-workers as well as greatly improve prospecting results. You might be wondering why less than 6% of salespeople and businesses are effectively utilizing video right now. That’s a question I’ve asked hundreds of people and typically the answer is simple – they don’t know how to get started. \n  \nFebruary Topic: The Basics: Video Technology\, Set-up\, and Tools \nIn this session\, we will cover all the basics needed to seamlessly and easily integrate video into your current process. \n\n\nLearn what technology platforms make video easiest to create and share\nExplore what equipment makes sense to invest in and what’s not worth your money (at least early on using video)\nFind proven best practices for making better videos\n\n\n  \nOur Facilitator: \n \nDavid Inman \nDavid Inman is the Director of Development at Kennected and leads conversations across the country surrounding sales technology. As an avid reader and a firm believer in the scientific method\, he has always pushed past conventional boundaries. From monthly science experiments that he runs with his four children to his ever-growing “Idea Journal” and even Rejection Bingo (believe me\, it is worth asking about)\, he is constantly searching for ways to improve. David is also a self-proclaimed “sales nerd” who has a passion for finding innovative ideas that disrupt the market. \nToday\, that innovation includes something as simple as talking to a camera. \nDid you know that right now only about 6% of salespeople are regularly using personalized video in their prospecting cadence? That means that most people\, probably including you\, are still typing the same text-only messages that were used twenty years ago. It’s no wonder that most emails go unread\, unresponded\, and un-noticed. \nOver the past year\, David has taught nearly 2000 people how to improve their prospecting\, client retention\, and even inner-office communication using video. Video should be an essential part of every business plan for 2021.
