Making Content Creation Less Scary: Top Tips to Turn Video Content into Sales
Issy Roughan, Howell Film
Video content is the key to building a connection with your audience before they make that all important commitment - it emphasises the age-old adage of 'people buy from people'!

But, if you find hitting record and putting yourself out there absolutely terrifying - don't panic. Head of Production and senior video editor Issy from Howell Film will give you her top tips for creating DIY video content in a way that's strategic, creative and is focused on driving more results (and more sales!).
