How To Make Videos When You Hate Being On Camera

If you want to make videos for your business and social media but the thought of standing in front of the camera brings on the cold sweats, then you are NOT alone!

So, how do you use video effectively in your business without being on screen?

With the boom in TikToks and Reels, 91% of businesses are using video as a key marketing tool and 96% of marketers say that video is a critical component of their marketing strategy.

What’s more, 89% of people say watching a video has convinced them to buy a product or service and 91% of people say they want to see more online videos from brands.

But the great news is, you can still enjoy making video even if you’re camera-shy (or downright camera-averse!)
