Behind the Camera
“Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness. ” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr
A lot has happened this week and I found myself struggling for the right words to share with you as we begin a new one.
I did share a post in my personal page after the tragedy that happened in the U.S. These are thoughts not everyone can reflect on with firsthand experience, because we may have different backgrounds and ethnicities. But I hope you read from a place of empathy. If you would like to, feel free to check it out on Facebook.
We need more conversations to bring us together.
What I can share as I sit here writing the intro for this week's news is that each one of us has a part to play in improving this world. I'm working hard to play my role for my children. If I can help you play yours somehow, let's stay connected.
Blessings to you and yours, Tanya

CTAs help businesses gain new leads, increase signs-ups and help bloggers and writers expand their audiences. Depending on what you’re aiming for, the nature and design of call-to-actions might change, but at its core, all effective CTAs have to follow best design practices and send out a clear message.
How this applies to video marketing is when you are sharing your on-camera or live video, you need to ALWAYS have a CTA in mind. Viewers need to know what's next. This article may give you a few ideas.
