10. Creating a Plan
How often does your organization generate new
content or data via video?
It’s common for businesses to review data once a
week, month or once a quarter.
How can your message be presented in a way that
your organization can take action on?

11. Organize your Message
Organize your message. Do you
need to break out certain graphs
to show more detail?
What are the takeaways?
Consider the conclusions you are
going to draw during your
presentation. Is there supporting
media or physical objects that can
help tell your story?

14. Media & Data Organization
Consider media organization.
Will the data and video
presentation be stored on a
shared drive such as Google
Drive or Microsoft SharePoint?
Perhaps you want to share
supporting documents or the
raw data for your team?

15. Call your team to action
Consider collaboration & call
to action items that push the
conversation forward.
Do you want to prompt
collaboration on Slack?
Do you want to request
feedback via email?

16. Create a workflow
Create a template for easy
video reproduction. Where is
your content coming from? Do
you need an intro video? Are
there supporting video assets
to help display your message?

17. Ideas for Successful Video Production
Charts, Graphs and Powerpoint
presentations are great.
But try striking a balance
between charts/slides and real
products.
If you have an app, zoom into the
app and share the latest feature.
If you sell a product, zoom into
the product and share it’s look
and feel.

Once you have tracked your business data for a while you will be able to uncover patterns and
trends to predict the future.
Create a Scorecard. Reach the point where everyone in your organization has a number, a
meaningful, manageable measurable.
This will provide clear direction to your team and increase productivity.
Anything that is measured and watched is improved.
