A recent study from Marketing Sherpa proved that people spend 100% more time on pages with videos on them. Translation? You need to be filming videos.
I get it. Video doesn’t come naturally to everyone. Being in front of the camera can be awkward. I wrestle with all kinds of emotions and uncertainty every. single. time. I. film.
But here’s what can make it a whole lot easier . . . A good teleprompter setup.
I’ll show you my 7 best secrets this week so you can start filming more videos—and better videos—and grabbing more mind share from your audience.
A great video strategy can go a long way in boosting your brand’s awareness, value and product marketing efforts.
And since I know you’re going to ask, I’ll also tell you what teleprompter software I use, as well as some of the best teleprompter apps you may want to try. Check it out by clicking below!

Dale Smith says
Thanks for the great tips, Pam! You mentioned a monitor that fits over the lens. What is it? Is there one for a smartphone?
Kirk VandenBerghe says
Thanks for the shout out, Pam. I LOVED the content and really appreciate how responsive to info requests you are. Excellent.
Pam Hendrickson says
Kirk, I appreciated the question – it was a good one as I’ve struggled mightily with the prompter (and video in general) in my career. Happy to answer any good questions (like yours) that come through! 🙂
Sue Ferreira says
Great tips, Pam Hendrickson.
I agree using a teleprompter is a great skill but one worth developing.
I knew I made it, when a friend of mine said “your videos are so spontaneous without a teleprompter”.
WhooHoo! Success – I was using a teleprompter!
Pam Hendrickson says
Sue, you are one of the most spontaneous and smart people I know! So kudos to you and keep prompting! (We miss you – drop us a note with how you’re doing…) XOXO
Neale says
Great advice, Pam. Very comprehensive.
Becky says
I often feel like you’re reading my mind. This is just what I needed! I tried recording a few videos 2 weeks ago and on my final take my daughter walked in . ARRRRRRRRRRRRRR! I’m ready to go today while everyone is at school, daycare and work. And I’ll be moving the prompter back farther this time. Thanks Pam!
Pam Hendrickson says
Becky – between two boys, a husband, a dog and a cat, I have definitely suffered from video interruptus. Not to mention lawn mowers, jet planes, deliveries . . . it’s tough to get a quiet time in a home studio. Keep pushing through! I can’t wait to see what you come up with.
