How do introverts start making video content for marketing?

Starting video content creation is difficult for introverts because of a lack of technical filming and editing knowledge combined with discomfort getting in front of the camera. This blocks small business owners from using video to engage followers and convert them into customers, even when they already have an established social media audience.

“Over the years, we’ve had a lot of people tell us we should film our daily activities and put them on social media. We do have a nice little following on FB (1500+) but it’s generally just pictures bc I am an introvert and have absolutely no filming/editing knowledge!”source ↗
