Time Stamped Show Notes:
05:02 -Stats, what the videos were and how they came out
- In Terry’s word..”It doesn’t matter how great your content is, if they’re wrong people have seen it.”
The four C’s
- Content, Community, Connections, and Conversion
06:44 – Terry uploaded a video to LinkedIn
- He tagged it TBT which is a hashtag and they are not normally used on LinkedIn
- This video was recorded on 2011 called “How to grab their attention.”
- Honestly, the video itself had a lot of good content
- It was recorded on his flip phone, it’s that old
- It has four good ideas on how to connect with people
- He’s had 124 views in 24 hours, which isn’t bad for the quality of the video
You can use these four ideas whether you’re connecting online or in person.
08:02 – The downside of this video
- There was something about the authenticity at the moment of setting the camera up and having it face the table, there was no camera option for facing a different way..you just had to hope you got in the screen
- It has received as of this podcast recording, 127 views of the video
- Some audience members who have viewed the video are the people who have the title salesperson, CEO and executive director, there are nine people from a Telecom
- The biggest audiences in Detroit and then Columbus, Ohio is the second
- Summary: Video is great for reach on LinkedIn
09:46 – Stats of the video-where to find them
- You can go in right there to the right view of it where it’s in your profile under your activities you can look at the video
- Click on that to open up, once you click it, it opens it up and it tells you the market, the titles of people and the companies that they’re from and whether they are first degree network or second degree.
So, you can see how much reach the video has!

20:33 – Terry’s post on Ted X and just text

- There’s nothing even to grab the readers other than the words
- It was super relevant, it was super relatable, it had a lot of detail and it was about something people really care about
- Got 8 comments, and 10 likes some of those comments included tags of other people
22:24 – LinkedIn video platform
- Facebook Live is more casual, chit-chat, authentic
- LinkedIn is more prim, proper, professional ..or should it be…maybe be yourself and keep it professional
- What the subject is, does matter obviously, makes a difference on talking about Pinterest on LinkedIn
- Janet says that video is going to be worth testing
- As, these platforms launch video or launch something new, they do give it more power to start having people want to use it
- Since video is so new on LinkedIn, they’re probably giving it more power
…And if you are a B2B business, absolutely take advantage of it!
28:33 -Important piece of advice from Janet’s and Terry’s
- If you have a video over on Facebook put it over on YouTube, put it on LinkedIn, get it out there!
- Repurpose that content or reuse that content that is good and that will resonate with the audience
