Each day the real estate industry creates countless hours of social media video content, but why is it some videos go viral and others don’t?
Virable’s Jonathan Creek says there’s a science to creating videos that people engage with and share, and if you crack the code it can take your profile to a whole new level. This science takes its cues from Hollywood where movies can retain attention for hours on end, but on social media, it’s not about special effects, polished performances and complicated post-production.
Instead, Jonathan says it all starts with great storytelling that connects with and evokes emotion in your audience, then keeps them on the hook and invested in the outcome.
Jonathan Creek is a sought after speaker and former investigative journalist who has spent years researching viral videos and storytelling. These days he heads up Virable where he helps businesses and individuals attract a disproportionate amount of attention online.
