My guest today is one of our community of video strategists within the Online Video Strategy Blueprint and what really stands out for me with Bill is that he comes to his business with what I believe is the right mindset. A focus on helping others in business do better through video, leading first with the value that he can share with his clients, well before asking for anything in return.
It’s a philosophy of business that I wholeheartedly believe in, and so I’m stoked to bring his story to you today.
