  4. Clicks Amid Conflict: YouTube Business Success Strategies from an Inspiring Ukrainian Expert

    ٠٨‏/٠٦‏/١٤٤٥ هـ

    Clicks Amid Conflict: YouTube Business Success Strategies from an Inspiring Ukrainian Expert

    This week's guest on Video Mojo shares his inspiring journey of rebuilding his life and business after the devastation of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. After he was forced to close his coffee business, he started a video editing company from scratch and grew it to a staff of six within a year, offering valuable insights into entrepreneurship and success on YouTube. Ukrainian entrepreneur Anton Kosheliev exemplifies the importance of persevering in business, helping others, and creating valuable, educational content to achieve success on YouTube. He does all this despite facing the challenges of living in a war zone. Anton's courage and just-do-it attitude are an inspiration for those of us living in much less challenging circumstances. There's much that we can learn from him, including his insights about what works on YouTube. 🎥 00:00 Learn how this Ukrainian entrepreneur built a successful video business in less than a year despite conflict, starting a YouTube channel and growing a team of editors. 🚀 05:28 Rather than create a virtual team, Anton hired local editors and taught them YouTube skills so they could succeed. He also recommends creating educational videos to support audience goals in their industry. 🎥 09:32 Anton recommends consistently delivering value through educational videos and prioritizing starting and improving over time rather than thinking you can achieve instant success on YouTube. 📈 12:28 For most businesses, outsourcing video editing allows for more content creation and business growth, while creating evergreen content is more valuable for building a successful YouTube channel vs YouTube Shorts. 📈 17:36 Create valuable long-form content, prioritize thumbnails for high click-through rates, and avoid becoming a slave to the algorithm if you want sustainable YouTube success. 🚀 22:45 Be inspired by how Anton started small, put his ego aside, and focused on creating a name and recognition to achieve success on YouTube despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. 💡 25:25 Despite conflict and economic challenges in Ukraine, Anton emphasizes the importance of persevering in business and helping people survive. 👍 28:37 Even for someone living in a war zone, YouTube adds value for Anton by showcasing this creator's intentions and reputation, leading to increased trust and business opportunities. Anton is an inspiration making a big difference in people's lives. 🔗 JOIN JON'S EMAIL LIST and/or ALL his links: 🔗 https://play.combridges.com/ 🧰 TOOLS THAT JON USES & RECOMMENDS (affiliate links) 🧰 Riverside for remote recording - https://combridges.com/record Descript for transcript-based, AI-assisted video editing ConvertKit for email marketing Circle for community building & courses Tella for screen sharing & educational video production

    Ready to Supercharge Your Marketing Using AI? Best Apps to Get Started.

    Marketing AI Institute's Chief Content Officer, Mike Kaput and Video Mojo host Jon Leland explain why marketers who do not embrace and adapt to AI are rapidly being left behind. They also recommend the best apps to get started with copywriting, image generation, and concept video production. Key insights include strategies and approaches for marketing executives and agencies on how to use AI marketing tools most effectively. Kaput and Leland explain how to use AI as a creative collaborator in order to generate content and revolutionize creativity. The most important takeaway is that AI tools should only be used as an additive component to your established marketing strategies, not a replacement. These tools can dramatically enhance and empower your strategic positioning, but more content for the sake of more content won't help anyone and can turn off your prospects. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS ⏰ 🚀 00:00 Adapt to AI in order to stay competitive, as using AI marketing tools is essential for success 💡 03:48 How to get started with AI for marketing 🤖 07:08 Recommended AI marketing tools 📱 13:34 YouTube's collaboration with Universal Music Group 🤖 17:56 Image generation apps: Midjourney and Adobe Firefly 🚀 22:54 Video tools like RunwayML can help generate concept trailers and videos to showcase ideas 🚀 26:44 Job challenges for voice-over announcers 🚀 31:36 Be cautious of vendors making wild claims about AI, focus on producing quality content and building relationships 🔗 LINKS MENTIONED 🔗 http://MarketingAIinstitute.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikekaput/ ChatGPT Plus: https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt-plus ($20/month) Generative AI Images: http://MidJourney.com https://firefly.adobe.com/ (rights-controlled images) Jon's "A.I.

    How to Have Creative Fun by Learning to Surf the AI Marketing Tsunami with Frank Prendergast

    In the face of all of AI's dangers, my guest Frank Prendergast and I discuss the opportunities to use AI for creative fun and as a marketing enhancer. But we don't put our heads in the sand either. We confront AI's limitations, including the fact that AI cannot replace the human component of creativity, nor can it build authentic trust with an audience. Most importantly, we agree that getting to know AI—yes, through playful experimentation—is a crucial skill to develop in today's rapidly changing world. 🗝️ KEY POINTS DISCUSSED: 00:00 Having fun is crucial in content marketing. 04:54 Be cautious of AI's potential dangers and stay aware that it cannot replace the human component of the creative process. 08:19 Surf the AI marketing tsunami, support regulation initiatives, and have fun while preparing for a future where human involvement may not be necessary in certain domains. 10:35 Learn how Frank used AI tools to create a retro 80s music video, including turning still images into animated avatars synced with the song's lyrics. 14:41 AI has the potential to democratize creativity and empower people in the developing world. 17:59 The impact of AI on creative ownership is uncertain. 21:35 Content creators must infuse their own humanity into their work. 24:52 AI in marketing is becoming increasingly important, allowing for more time to focus on enjoyable aspects and creating a better experience for the audience. 🔗 LINKS MENTIONED: Frank Predergast - https://frankandmarci.com Frank's MidJourney/BeatBot/D-ID music video - https://youtu.be/Vl_WvV92zOU?si=hgSQy...
