About this video
Dale invites indie authors to People of Video in Albany, New York from October 8th to the 10th, saying it is 2021 and in-person conferences are coming back. To answer why an indie author would attend a video creator conference, he replays interviews from a 2019 video creator conference where other creators argue video builds know, like, and trust, three-dimensionalizes an author, clarifies a message that might otherwise be misunderstood, and helps sell books because content can live on YouTube and across social media. Speakers also note networking, distribution opportunities, and similarities between the YouTube and Amazon algorithms. For authors who resist being on camera, one speaker suggests paying someone else to be the face, but insists video is necessary. Dale says he will be emceeing and speaking alongside names including Roberto Blake, Brian G. Johnson, Judi Fox, Owen Video, Dan Currier, and Professor Nez, offers a coupon code for Dale for 50% off, and notes an early bird deal up to September the 1st.
