YouTube Thursdays -  Video Marketing Focus for 2022 - Just Do You

 

 

 

Lately, we’ve been reading articles related to video marketing in 2022. It’s no surprise to discover little has changed. Community and neighborhood videos are still at the top of the list in terms of establishing yourself as the local expert. A social media marketing presence is also a must as we continue to navigate this unprecedented era of physical distancing. 

 

You may have noticed, Bernie and I stepped back in 2021 to reflect, renew, and reestablish our professional direction. The bottom line, we both still enjoy marketing and specializing in rural properties. Therefore, our video focus this year is to further brand ourselves as the best local resource in this particular niche.

 

Fortunately, the topics are endless. For example, this past week brought us record low temperatures, high winds, and snow. While this level of winter storm can be a hassle for all home owners, it can be particularly challenging for those of us who live in rural communities. 

 

Here are a few video ideas that come to mind:

 

Wood stoves and alternative heat sources.

How to keep pipes from freezing. 

Shovels, Snow blowers or Snow plows? 

Lose Power? Reminders to protect your wells. 

Storm Preparedness.

Wildlife Aid.

Protecting Farm Animals. 

 

It’s so much easier to create valuable and authentic content when you are immersed in the lifestyle. It's one of the big reasons niche marketing makes such good sense. Imagine the two of us us trying to sell golf course homes? Hint: neither of us golf nor are we interested in golfing. While we aren’t particularly fond of trendy phrases, “Just Do You,” certainly resonates.

Amen, to that Debb. Best wishes on your journey.  We learned that the county quits plowing five miles from our gate. Now I am still practicing writing 2022 🙃.

Winter videos on horse sleigh rides, snow sled club house breakfasts with the locals, pond hockey skating. The community flavor gets show and told best using video captured from where you and I live, work and play Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD !

Luckily, in San Diego winterizing is long sleeve shirts and shoes vs. T-shirts and flip flops. 😎 Much less work in Winter in San Diego.

I saw this earlier this week and couldn't wait to respond! SO good to see you two back in the Rain and back to your YouTube tips. We have missed you and can't wait to see what you share.

Love your tips and ideas spawned from the frigid temperatures. Your well protection video topic is something I look forward to watching!

Happy New Year, you two!

Debb and Bernie:

So glad to see "you" back with more video wisdom. Certainly it has to be much harder to be who you aren't than who you are.

Debb, I do slow down in the winter months and not do as many videos.  The public thinks Denver is always cold, and don't want to confirm it, as we do have many nice days.
