"Tips & Tricks"

Viral video is a great way to spread the word about what you are doing. The best part is, it's FREE! If you are a professional (non-profit or otherwise) and looking to spread the word about what you do to a growing but complex marketplace, think of what you can do to draw in some attention.

Here's a fun example!



Some pointers as you consider your approach:

- It should not be overly fancy. Simple is best

- Be provocative! It should raise more questions than it answers.

- Include your website or contact info in the video.
No sense posting a video if people don't know how to find you.

- It should be SHORT. Audience attention span is generally minuscule.
