Hi Jeff, I would also rather get something that you put out there before waiting for perfection. What's so encouraging about your videos is it helps us see it's the message first and the format second. Sure, you don't want videos that are hard to watch they're so bad but that's really an extreme situation. Thanks for shipping it before it's perfect! That's what I call walking your talk! Jeff
Thank you for this video, Jeff! It is just what I needed to see! Video has been on my to-do list for years, but I always put it off because I was nervous to be on camera, didn't have the right equipment, didn't have the right background, etc. At the beginning of 2015 I decided to make this the year of video and just start shooting them with my phone. While my production is not professional quality, my goal is to keep it real with my audience and give them an inside look at my life. My life's not fancy or perfect and I think it's fine for my videos to not be fancy or perfect either. I have important information to share and would rather get it out there now than wait to have the "perfect" set-up (because when with THAT ever happen!?). I think it really comes down to the person and message you're hoping to convey. My business is more casual and laid back, so I feel my videos are fine being casual too. And, I'm always learning. Each video I shoot and edit gets a little bit better. I also plan to slowly invest in a better equipment as I have the money and my knowledge of video production improves. I am also finding the video editing process to be A LOT of fun and really am enjoying videos now. I kind of kick myself for putting it off for so long! Take away message? If you have something to say, go say it and don't worry about being perfect!
Thanks for this Jeff.....I always feel like I need to look "just so" before creating video, so I hardly ever do anymore. Need to get back in this game! Prelaunch coming soon :)

I'd rather get great content from you, and from anyone else, instead of Hollywood-like videos. Keep it up, Jeff! :)
Love this and it's a great reminder for us. Thanks for keeping it real and being so encouraging! Much appreciated, Jeff!
Great message--done beats perfect every time!!
