Quick tips to grow your business with videos

Hello Product hunters and builders!

I’ve been editing video for 25+ years and keep seeing the same blocker for entrepreneurs and small businesses: talking-head videos feel slow and fiddly. Here’s the fastest workflow (5 x 3min) I use and teach:

1) Script (3 min)

• Hook (first 5s): state a problem your audience has.

• Value: How you solve the problem?

• CTA: Clear next step what you want the viewer to do.

2) Setup (3 min)

• Lighting is SUPER important. Facing a window is the easiest way.

• Audio is the second most important. Find a quiet room, check the echo.

3) Record (3 min)

• One authentic take, don’t chase perfection (fix that in edit).

• Confidence comes from speaking a bit slower and louder.

4) Edit with SpeechCut (3 min)

• Edit by transcript: remove fillers, false starts, rambles. Make it TIGHT.

• Tweak captions, colors, music if you want.

5) Publish (3 min)

• Platform-specific caption, 3–5 hashtags where relevant.

• Reply to every comment in the first hour, even just tiny low-info replies boosts the algorithm.

If you want, I can tailor this into a mini checklist for your niche. Happy to help!
