Step 2: Complete your profile
You want to create a profile that presses the “hot buttons” and emotional triggers of your target audience.
If you are an organization, click on the “organization” tab next to the “individual” tab (see screenshot on the next page).
Some examples of hot buttons: if you are trying to raise money for a non-profit, then you should try using a picture that resembles the cause (i.e. children who are hungry; children in hospitals; animals in cages, etc.).
Or, if you are trying to accumulate a devoted audience for your makeup, health or fitness channel, try using a “before/after” picture to show how transformative your skills are.

Step 3: Choose a Video
This can get a bit tricky. Say that you have many different types of videos and you want to promote all of them. One way to promote your videos is through the use of themes.
For example, try creating a “theme of the week” based on your consumers’ interests.
Some examples: - A week where you interview multiple outside sources who
give unique insights on your topic. - A week where you film your videos from a totally
different location than you usually do. - Focus your week around a holiday or season (ie.
Christmas, Summer, New Year’s resolutions, etc.) - The list is endless!
Expert Tip: One way to find out what your target followers will pay for is simply by asking one of your current fans via email or phone. Better yet: interview them for one of your videos!
Here is what you want to keep in mind:
o Make sure your video is easy to understand. o Your video should be high quality with no sound
problems. o Keep it short and concise. o Make sure it addresses an immediate problem your
consumer is facing. o If you are making a video just for entertainment
purposes, be sure to infuse humor into it. o Focus on your consumers and what they want. In
return they will deliver value.

Step 4: Upload a video
The next step is to upload your video into the Gbox portal.
Doing so allows you to create your own video gallery. Whether you have a website or not, you will still be able to sell videos right from your unique Gbox channel.
So get going! Start uploading your video content. The more content - the more opportunity
for you to make money!
Browse videos on your computer and find one
that is a good fit for your consumer base.
You can even use Dropbox to upload
your videos.

Step 5: Create an offer
This is where you really have to know your audience. The offer you create is based on their preferences and past purchasing behavior.
Sometimes the best way to find out what they’re willing to pay for your videos is just by asking them. Try sending them a simple email asking them: “what is this content worth to you?” Then based on their answers, create an offer.
Expert tip: Look up videos from other people who are targeting the same audience as you and see what they are charging for their content.
1. Start by uploading the video(s) you want to sell.

2. Then select a cover image that is most relatable to your target audience. This cover image is one of the first things your viewer sees when they come to your page, so you want to use it to convey your core message. If you already have a brand that is memorable, then your logo should be in the image as well.
3. Create a title using keywords people use to search for your video in their Google search. This may require you to do some competitive research. Find out which keywords your competitors are ranking for via SEMRush.
4. The description is the most important part of the process! Your consumers must know exactly what they are receiving, so make sure it includes popular keywords. You may want use UberSuggest if you are having a hard time coming with 5-6 keywords to use.
5. Your tags should consist of the 5 keywords that are in your title and description.
Use keywords in your title so people can find
you on Google.
Add a very specific description so your
audience knows exactly what they're receiving.

The pricing you want to use is determined by the previous purchase behavior of your target audience.
o Use the “Fundraising” method when your video is for a cause. For example: If you want help raising money for an event or a philanthropy campaign you’re working on.
o The “Name Your Price” option should be used when you are unsure of your pricing strategy. This allows the consumers to help point you in the direction of what your content is worth.
o “Fixed Price” should only be used when you are already aware of the purchasing behavior of your target audience.
Currently you can price your videos in US & CDN Dollars, Euros
and British Pounds

Promotional Copies: How many copies do you want to give away for free? If you are confident about your video and the value of it, then you may want to bypass this part. Otherwise choose this based on your promotion initiatives.
You can allow anyone who
purchases your video to give up to 5
promotional copies away to whoever
they want!

Season Passes: Offering different season passes to your viewers is a great way to incentivize your audience to buy. The more time your viewers opt-in for, the cheaper the pass is for them.
For example, viewers can opt to view any of your videos for one-month for $25.99. Or, they can get a six-month pass for $59.99, or a one-year pass for $99.99! Obviously the most economical deal is the year pass, and all it takes is a click of a button for you to create this deal.
You can make your season passes any
price you want!

Step 6: Email Your Friends and Family
Community building plays a huge role in video distribution.
When you first look into buying a car, you test-drive it to make sure it fits your needs; that it is exactly what you want.
This is your opportunity to receive feedback on your video from the people closest to you. Their feedback is a great jumping point from which you can improve future content.
Once they see your video and fall in love with it, ask them to share with their extended network. This is how you start building a community around your videos.
Here are the 3 stages of a community:
o Friends and Family. o Friends of Friends of Friends. o Town Hall – Invite everyone to one place
and connect consumers with other consumers.

Step 7: Reel the Reviews in
When consumers watch your videos, what is the number one reason they may come back to watch it a second, third, fourth time? Would you ever watch a video again if it wasn’t good the first time?
This is where value matters.
The content you create should be a combination of your passion and what your consumers want. If the consumers get what they want, then they will deliver value back to you in other forms (testimonials, social proof, and reviews.)
o Ask your consumers for what they thought of the video through comments and email.
o Distribute the video on popular social networks and invite your connections to view your other videos.
o Give, give, give! And then ask for a review. This means get out there and help others with your expert advice, answer questions on Q&A sites (Quora or Yahoo Answers), give advice, become a leader in your industry and then ask for a review.
