    Episode 131: Video Testimonials that Land the Big Fish

    Meet IAN GARLIC
    Ian has over 15 years of experience in Video Marketing. He uses cutting-edge online video marketing to help businesses collect and craft their stories. A Milwaukee native, Ian grew up in Orlando before venturing to the Big Apple where he worked as an agent for a top commercial real estate firm, became an experienced trader for a hedge fund, and mastered marketing consulting for a Fortune 100 Company. His experience in NYC led him to the creation of authenticWEB. Ian co-founded authenticWEB with his wife, Jessica Curry (now Garlic), who worked for Nickelodeon, Disney and Miramax. Ian is known as the go-to video marketing and storytelling expert by businesses and marketers around the world. This is why the Video Case Story brand was born, to focus in video production of customer's testimonials.
     
    For 15 years, he has helped service-based businesses (from lawyers to SaaS companies to highly complex industries) find their most powerful client stories, capture them on video, and deliver them at the perfect time to guarantee MORE leads, BETTER clients, and MORE sales. I know creating online videos that guarantee results is far from easy. He had his own share of failures. From them, he’s worked to perfect the formula, capturing stories and using them to build 7 to 8 figure businesses. For him, there is nothing more satisfying than to help a business grow & see the joy it brings to our clients. With his proven system we can make you the authority, without taking up a ton of time and without spending $100,000 on a one-time tv commercial.
