Want to skip ahead? Here are key takeaways: [8:33] It's more about authenticity versus perfection. You aren't producing a movie for the big screen. Your customers want to see you being a human, that's how they connect to you. The only comparison you need to make with your videos is if this video you just published is a little better than the last one you created.
[10:42] We all want to go viral, but they don't necessarily drive more money. Yes, you feel good because you have a lot of views. What's more important is how many people take action on that video. Start with understanding the true size of your audience and the goals for your video. 
[16:01] Repurpose and reshare you content. Send the videos out to your email list. Cut it up and share it on your social media channels. Ensure you pay attention to how platforms utilize content and format it for that audience. Share videos you've created in the past again, if they're stil relavent.
[19:31] Take your audience on a journey. There are three categories, why, how, and what. 70% of your videos should be why, 15% how, and 15 % what. Some of these videos should be polarizing. That allows you to help your viewers select if you're the right fit for them or not.
[26:18] Different donors have different motivations, create videos that speak to those. For one campaign, you might create 3-5 videos that talk to different people. They'll connect and align with you and get a quick win for something they care about.
[31:24] Get the first 10 videos out of the way. The first ten videos are going to be the hardes, and the worst, that you create. Get them done and out of the way immediately so you can get into a rhythm and start to feel comfortable.
