👉🏼 BUT. You do need these 4 things👇🏼

1️⃣ Good LIGHT.
💡light controls the quality of your video
💡 good light = clear video quality (not blurry or pixelated!)
💡 good light = not too dark OR too bright (both can cause issues!)
💡 FREE OPTION - use natural light coming in from a window.

2️⃣ Focused and strategic LOOK
💁🏻‍♀️ your look = hair, makeup, outfit, location.
💁🏻‍♀️ it should all be strategic and appealing to your ideal client
💁🏻‍♀️ this is something you plan out before you get on-camera
💁🏻‍♀️ FREE OPTION - you can use clothes/locations you already have available to you (no need to go out and buy a ton of stuff!)

3️⃣ Quality SOUND
🎤 this is the ONE thing I do recommend you buy - ya need a mic
🎤 if you don’t use a mic. your videos sound unprofessional 🤦🏻‍♀️
🎤 and people will watch a video with so-so visuals… but they WILL NOT watch a video with bad audio!!!
🎤 CHEAP OPTION - download my free gear list for some good starter options! (In my bio)

4️⃣ Strategic + Profitable MESSAGE
🗯 your message is the CONTENT you speak about or cover in your videos
🗯 this is what people actually watch your videos for
🗯 think about it - you’ll watch a YouTube tutorial with crappy visuals if it answers your question… right? 😜
🗯 and guess what? It requires ZERO EXPENSIVE GEAR to create a profitable and strategic message. It just takes some work up front so your message is ALWAYS on point

Which of these 👆🏼 do you struggle with? Which one is easiest for you? LMK in the comments!
