YouTube for Network Marketing

What It’s Good For

YouTube is great for conveying your brand and business without words. YouTube can also literally show the face of your business to give potential team members an authentic feel and see who is behind your team. YouTube videos do not have to have a huge production. To share the message of your business opportunity simply share your story. Why did you join GDI? What success have you found? Answer these questions in your video.

How It’s Unique

NO WORDS! Blogs and articles are great, but some people just don’t have the time or desire to read, read, read! Since YouTube is an open platform, you also don’t have to be a professional director or editor for your work to fit in. Anything on YouTube has the potential of going viral because video is easy to share and quickly watch. Not many blog posts go wild. YouTube videos are also extremely easy to embed into just about anything including your GDI site.

Ways to Use It

Use YouTube to give your business opportunity a human face. Film and edit short videos offering education and marketing tips. You can even members of your downline to share their own in video form and share it on your website and YouTube page. You can share these video success stories on YouTube and Facebook and anywhere you can embed video.

People are more apt to watch a quick video than read a lengthy blog post, so give YouTube a try.
