How to Use Emotion to Drive Action on YouTube [feat. Tamsen Webster]

If you want your viewers on YouTube to take action because of content they watched from you, it will only happen because you elicit an emotion from your viewer. The bigger, the deeper the emotion, the bigger action they'll take.

In this episode we talk about this on a brand level - getting someone to subscribe and watch more -- but also on a specific level that you can use in each video if you want.

A few months ago I heard Tamsen Webster speak at a conference about this topic and thought, "I need to get her on a podcast episode to talk more about this. This is fantastic and so helpful."

Tamsen is a message strategist, speaker and author and, thankfully, she agreed to be interviewed for our podcast!
