Hustle (job)

Video Strategist

What do you do?  

We help businesses solve problems through strategically applying video, and related tools

Why do you do it?

Every business has a story to tell. I love learning about how they are, why they do what they do, and what makes them special, then telling their story to the world

What was your Catalyst? (How did you get started?)

I freelanced for years, and decided I could better serve my clients by working with them directly

What’s a common misconception or unknown aspect of what you do?

I am not good enough, there are other people better already doing it. Maybe, but they do not have your unique voice. There are plenty of people who will connect with your personality, that will not connect with others

What’s the most challenging part of your Hustle?

Convincing people that they will look better on camera than they believe they will

What’s the most valuable piece of business advice/insight that’s helped you?

Start Ugly. You will never be the best when you first start, but it you never start you will never get there. Start where you are, and get better as you go.
