My first video for the blog

A couple of months ago I entered a challenge on the Smart Passive income blog: to create a Youtube video. I had two months to complete the challenge, until October 31st, and it seemed like a really easy challenge to enter. Entering the challenge would send me a few benefits:

  • Being listed on the SPI blog, which gets tens of thousands of visitors a months, would help me get traffic to my site and maybe new regular readers

  • I would actually get started at creating videos, something that I have been contemplating for ages but never really started.


Well, as easy as it sounded, I waited until last Thursday to create my video. I was so scared to jump in front of the camera, to put my voice on the screen, and to run dry of ideas, that I never started and kept finding excuses.

But I finally decided to create my video last week and I'm glad I did: it was a lot of fun!

I kept it very simple for my first try and basically did a video version of a blog post I already published: An introduction to design tools for marketers: differences between photoshop, illustrator and indesign.

So here is the video:
