Hey everyone! Welcome to Day 1 of our 7-Day Video Challenge! 📌 TODAY'S FOCUS: YOUR POWERFUL INTRODUCTION Today we're tackling what I believe is "the secret sauce" of successful short-form videos - your introduction. This isn't just any introduction - it's a carefully crafted statement that helps viewers instantly understand: - Who you are - Who you help - What results you deliver - How you're different 🔑 WHY THIS MATTERS The power of short-form video isn't about being clever or showcasing vast expertise (though those help!). The real magic happens when viewers can quickly decide if: Your service is for them OR for someone they know When your introduction is clear and targeted, you'll attract the right people even if you're just talking about your favorite coffee shops! 📝 YOUR INTRODUCTION FORMULA Hey, I'm [YOUR NAME] and I help [IDEAL CLIENT TYPE] get [KEY RESULT/OUTCOME] using/without/by [METHOD]. Examples: - "Hey, I'm Jordan and I help service providers get clients using short-form video." - "Hey, I'm Dr. Stacy and I help executive women meet the man of their dreams without online dating." - "Hi, I'm Steven Danforth and I help men over 40 get into the best shape of their lives in just two hours a week." ✅ YOUR ACTION STEP: Fill in each section of the formula: - Your name - Who you help (be specific! "lawyers" is better than "professionals") - What result you help them achieve - Something about your method (optional but recommended) Then put it all together: Hey, I'm [YOUR NAME] and I help [IDEAL CLIENT TYPE] get [KEY RESULT/OUTCOME] using/without/by [METHOD]. Post your comleted in the comments below! (Browse other members' introductions for inspiration) 🔮 COMING TOMORROW: In Day 2, we'll cover where to film your videos and how to set up a location that makes you look your best using just your phone. Remember: This introduction is the foundation of all your videos going forward - so take a few minutes to craft something you're excited about!

Holy tamole, this year has gotten off to a rough start. It all started when I contracted Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease, a vicious virus that covered my hands, face, and the insides of my mouth with painful lesions. I took some pictures and it's NOT pretty. It took me a grueling month to start to feel like myself again. Eager to return to my workout routine, I was soon struck with pain in an, ahem, very personal place. This marked the beginning of a harrowing journey filled with pointless antibiotics, an alarming ultrasound that discovered 4 "masses", and an agonizing wait to consult with a top oncologist at UCSF. The oncologist informed me that there was a 90% chance I had cancer, and I needed to mentally get prepared for surgery. He discussed my post-surgery life and suggested a saline prosthetic. There was even a possibility that the cancer had spread to other parts of my body, like my lungs, but that would only be checked after the initial surgery. All this on my first visit to this dr. I was scared, I was frustrated, I was depressed. Oh, and I was in pain too. In search of answers, I turned to ChatGPT, where I stumbled upon several documented cases of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease causing benign masses similar to mine. Interestingly, despite having informed multiple doctors and nurses about my recent battle with the virus, none seemed to consider it relevant. One specialist even admitted that while it might not be cancer, they didn't want to risk being sued. The textbook approach was to treat these masses as cancerous. Ultimately, everything hinged on a final ultrasound. If the results were the same or worse, I'd be facing surgery within a week. I did the test and waited for the results... The results came in just a few hours... ...the masses were gone! It was a huge relief of course. I'm grateful to still be in one piece. Frankly, I'm still processing it all. I know it's a cliche but when you experience something like this it makes you feel how short life is... or can become at any time.

Hallo and Hola! I'm Rebekka, and I'm from Germany, but currently I live in Mexico. I have been very nomadic over the last 8 years and lived in many different places, especially in Central America, Europe and South East Asia. I have been self-employed for about 13 years, but did a few different things along the way.... Right now, I am shifting my focus to supporting companies to increase their visibility and outreach using Pinterest. My challenge now is to get seen and found by the right people and I think using video is an awesome way. Especially in Germany, hardly anyone is using Video on LinkedIn for example, so I feel I can really stick out with it. For Fun... i love hiking, dancing, doing Yoga and exercising. And I'm super interested in permaculture and natural building. And I'm also a huge sauna fan, so big actually, that we started building a community sauna out of clay here in San Cristóbal de las Casas, where i currently live.

Hello! I people pay me for weight loss coaching and/or to release emotional/energetic blocks. I'm a certified holistic health coach and energy release facilitator. I live in Mexico so of course I like tacos 🌮 I LOVE to dance💃🏽 and I adore animals.🐶😻 I hope to learn how to leverage the power of video for better connection and sales. :)

I live on the Sunshine Coast, Qld Australia where I work as a meditation teacher, burnout prevention coach and mental health researcher. I worked many years as a Tibetan-English translator of Buddhist philosophy. Currently toward the end of a PhD researching how to combine traditional Buddhist and modern psych-based approaches for anxiety and depression. Before any of that I was a Jazz pianist in Toronto, Canada.
