- #14 tudies have shown that viewers decide during the first 15 seconds of a video whether they are going to keep watching or not. And, in this modern world, we are accustomed to a constant flow of information. So, you should aim to build trust or curiosity within the first 15 seconds of your video. Here are a few ways you can quickly engage viewers: Gain the trust of the viewer with a quick, animated introduction. Spark the viewer’s curiosity, or tease the rest of the video, with hosts/personalities. Start with a quick clip that previews what’s to come. Having an animated introduction is a simple and effective way to build the trust of a viewer. It shows them instantly that a quality production is about to follow.
- #19 In this generation of instant information gathering, many potential customers would rather watch a short two-minute video about your product or service, instead of reading pages and pages of content on your website. In addition, there is something to be said about getting information “straight from the horse’s mouth.” Video offers a more personal connection between your brand and the viewer.
- #21 Ask who currently has a Google account of some sort - Gmail, Picassa, etc.? This will determine how to proceed with the next part of the presentation. Some will be very beginner (meaning they’ll need the step-by-step to start from scratch); others may already be advanced.
- #22 Create Regular Content Consistently updating your channel with content will keep your channel feed active, increase your presence on YouTube, and help you build an audience. You should aim for a minimum of one video per week, but the right amount of content depends on your audience, your goals. One simple way to create a steady stream of content is to produce shorter versions of long-form content. Build a theme around a topic and then post bite-size versions of the theme on a weekly basis. This will keep your audience engaged and coming back for more.
- #24 Videos like this allow agents to increase their marketing breadth to video, which could be the deal maker in listing presentations. The videos also offer some SEO benefits since YouTube videos (when done well) tend to rank well in Google search results.
- #25 Videos like this allow agents to increase their marketing breadth to video, which could be the deal maker in listing presentations.

You will appear more professional and the viewers will have a stronger connection with you than just the video itself. Sometimes it can be hard for the viewer to understand what they are seeing. Thus, your voice is very important to explain and guide your viewers of your property. This will definitely increase your credibility as a real estate professional.

- #59 YouTube gives you the option to overlay one custom link and up to 4 social links on top of your channel art. For the social media links, you must select from YouTube’s drop-down menu of social networks. You cannot enter in your own links, but there is a wide range of social media sites to choose from, including Google+, Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, Tumblr, Blogger, etc.
- #74 Do NOT make the #1 mistake with your description field. You want to optimize the first 1-2 sentences with a link back to your website or landing page. This is essential because YouTube truncates your description, and only the first 2 sentences are shown when viewers watch your video.
