Never Posted a Video on LinkedIn™? Here’s Your Challenge!
If you’ve never hit “publish” on a LinkedIn™ video, I’m here to challenge you. It’s easier than you think! All you need is your smartphone and a bit of courage.
Step 1: Say Hello!
Got your phone? Great! Now let’s break it down:
- Find a phone holder: Improvise! Stack a few books or use anything that keeps your phone stable.
- Set up near a window: A white curtain diffuses the light beautifully, giving your skin a smooth glow.
- Choose a quiet spot: Your phone’s microphone works wonders if there’s no background noise.
Step 2: Keep It Short and Sweet
Now, what should you talk about? Easy. Introduce yourself and share what you’re passionate about. Keep it short—30 to 60 seconds is the sweet spot for LinkedIn™ videos. Don’t worry about fancy scripts. Speak from the heart, and you’ll connect with your audience.
Step 3: Polish the Edges
Once you’ve recorded your video, trim the start and end using your phone’s built-in editor. It’s that simple! Want to add a headline? Go for it—just don’t overthink it.
What You DON’T Need
You don’t need a professional studio setup to create great content. In fact, you can skip:
- 4K cameras, gimbals, and wireless microphones
- Complex lighting or fancy backdrops
- Editing skills on Adobe Premiere
- Waiting for a “better” moment
The time to post your video is now. Hit that upload button and share your story with the world.
Happy posting!
