How do you create YouTube Shorts?
- Open the YouTube app
- Tab on the “+” icon in the bottom of the screen
- When the camera opens, record a new video or select a video from your phone.
- After creating/selecting the video, you can add music, text or other fun features and elements to your video by tapping on the editing icon.
- Once you’re done, click the “next” button
- Title your short and add a little description, and tags, and if you have the function, upload or select a thumbnail for your video.
- Once you have everything filled out and selected, click “Post” and your video will upload!
Why should businesses care about YouTube Shorts?
- Increased engagement: Because the videos are short and snappy, they’re the perfect thing to add to your social media strategy to capture your audiences’ attention and have them smashing the like button.
- Cost-effective: Creating YouTube Shorts is a super cost-effective way for your business to start producing video content! Because Shorts are short (duh), you can make them super quickly from your phone without needing big production equipment.
- Increase brand visibility: As one of the most used platforms for video content (actually, it IS #1 still!), putting your video content on YouTube will help you increase your brand visibility AND reach a larger audience that you might not have ever reached previously.
