Are you ready to step up your game in the social media world for your business and join the party with short-form video content? TikToks, Reels, and YouTube shorts have taken the internet by storm in the last few years.

As business owners marketing our business on social media, we need to adapt. Hiding behind photos or graphics is just NOT going to make it anymore.

Buuuuut let's be honest, thinking about recording yourself on camera can be scary!

So, if you want to hit the record button but you are wondering: What are the first steps? Where do I even start? What do I need? How do I record reels when I don't have a fancy office? Should I just record in my living room?

...you are in the right place!

I've been in your shoes. My first TikToks were filmed on my living room floor, with no professional setup, just me and a smartphone. Since then, I have recorded a couple thousand of TikToks and reels combined.
