The Template You’ll Use
- 5-second intro/reminder/connection point: Who are you and where do they know you from? This is about 18 words at the rate I speak.
- 10 second funny/touching antidote about the connection: This is a complimentary and a shared memory that they will remember.
- 10 second seasonal/timely comment (holidays, upcoming event, gratitude): This is the offer – what are you suggesting in this video?
- 5-second CTA and salutation: Toss in one more benefit for them and tell them what to do next.
The Script I Shared on the Podcast
“Hey Abel this is Barry from 30 Days Sugar Free and author of I Love Me More Than Sugar.
I was on your podcast in June and probably the last guest who juggled a bowling ball. I met some great people because of that appearance. Your audience freakin’ loves you, thanks for sharing my work.
I was sitting here in my studio wondering what I could do for you and had this idea: can I make a 2-minute video for your audience about keeping sugar in check during the upcoming holiday season?
I’ll make it fun, simple, and applicable. Let me know, man, so long!”
Simple DIY Teleprompter
There are many listed on YouTube. I really like the simplicity of this one.
This kid made one out of a CD case… crazy simple.
And really, for this Action Project – you can do what this guy does. Really simple!
Use the comments below to ask questions and record how many you’ve done (you can also send this to me privately) and the winner will get something very cool in the mail.
Teleprompter:
i recommend this one, beside another one i can´t find at the moment:

I use this teleprompter app in my studio. It listens and keeps what I’m saying right in the center. Speeds up, slows down, pauses if I go off script. Crazy good. I’m not sure if it works while recording video on the iPad, but that would be ideal.

that sounds sooo amazing! … i have to check it out
awesome app! unfortunatly doesnt work in german. found one drawback … it would be great for selfi video to have the text/colored BG always on top/closest to the camera.
This is great Barry. Thanks for the idea!
How many you going to do?

Oh damn… that’s a real shortcoming of the app. Wonder if you could get in touch with the developer and see how you could make it happen in German? Maybe another sideline for you?
