INFOGRAPHIC: 10 Tips for Telling Your Story with Video

Check out this infographic for video ideas and tips on how to get your personal brand across well on camera.

My team and I created this as an add-on to my ebook Camera Ready…but even if you don’t need video tips, you might want to consider designing an infographic to supplement and explain your services or product. A good infographic is easy to understand, fun to look at, AND educational.  Does this one succeed? Let me know on Twitter @manoushz or on my website. Feel free to pass this along to friends and colleagues too.

I’m 73 and I overheard a woman at the pharmacy tell her friend “at least he has his health” about some man she knew and I wanted to tap her shoulder and say health without purpose is just a body with nowhere to send it and I would know because I’ve been healthy and useless for four years and no one has sent me a card for either

People who raised their children to be independent and then got exactly what they asked for are experiencing the most underrated grief of the modern era — because the success of their parenting is measured by how completely their children don’t need them and nobody warned them that the reward for doing it right would feel identical to being left behind

Research suggests people over 60 who need a glass of wine every evening to relax haven’t developed a drinking problem — they’ve lost every other decompression tool they once had and the wine filled a vacuum that used to be occupied by friendships and purpose and a reason to be tired that actually meant something

I’ve been rehearsing a conversation with my forty-seven-year-old son for eleven years — the one where I tell him that his father didn’t leave because of work, he left because I asked him to — and every Thanksgiving I almost say it and every Thanksgiving I decide he’s not ready and I’m starting to wonder if the person who’s not ready is me
