If youâve been putting off video because it feels awkward and takes too much time . . .
I get it, because I was you
People say Iâm a natural on camera, but the truth is Iâm not. Â
I was a shy awkward kid in high school. The one who avoided being the center of attention or on camera at all costs
So I wasnât happy when I found myself behind one of the âislandâ bars serving drinks. But I learned that when talking to strangers is your job you get over yourself fast.
đą And thatâs what it was like for me with video too. I hated seeing and hearing myself on camera. And my videos showed it.
One day I signed up for a group training. I learned a few techniques that saved me time.
And eventually just like standing behind a bar being starred at by strangers, I just stopped thinking about it. And I can promise you that you will too.
What You'll Learn Inside the Bootcamp
Your step-by-step path to creating videos you actually enjoy making, and are eager to share
This Is Perfect For You If You Are:
- â Nervous or uncomfortable every time you hit record and want to look more natural on camera.
- â Â Spending hours recording and editing and still not loving the end result enough to post it.
- â Â Telling yourself youâll start making videos âonce you get better equipment,â (even though you know thatâs not the real problem).
You'll go from dreading video to using a simple, repeatable process to create videos you're proud to share.
And maybe for the first time, youâll even enjoy being on camera.

Testimonials
Sara C. Timm (Bootcamp Alumna)
Collaborating with Annette Richmond has been a game-changer in overcoming my reluctance toward video content. With a little practice, my videos are coming along. And it's not chore anymore. Her know how, guidance, and support has made the process manageable and her insights into content creation have been invaluable.
She is also helping me build confidence in front of the camera. That's not the easiest thing in the world to do. I can highly recommend Annette for anyone looking to establish a video presence as well as learn to easily create compelling content.
Thomas Powner
đ Despite regularly speaking to large audiences at conferences and webinars, I struggled with camera presence when speaking to an audience of zero. Fear and self-doubt would creep in, causing me to stumble over words and sound insecure. Through video coaching sessions with Annette, I learned valuable techniques to overcome these challenges. I now feel confident and composed on camera, delivering clear and impactful messages.Â
đ In this world where video rules, I recommend Annette for video coaching to learn techniques, best practices, and easy-to-use tools.
Ieva Drazniece (Workshop Attendee)
Annette's energy is contagious, as well her video coaching approach. As a member of The TRIBE, a professional community of Richard van der Blom, I've greatly had a benefit of Annette's Workshop on how to shape my process of video creation more effective, and also fun! I believe this helps you start loving the process.
And Annette knows her craft, both in creative / technical part, and also in helping to learn how to do video with joy! I highly recommend her approach and amazing energy!
Not sure if this is for you? You might be thinking . . .Â
"I don't have time for this."
âIâve tried video before and it just takes forever.â
âMy videos never look or sound polished.â
âI can probably figure this out on my own.â
đ QUICK NOTE: This Bootcamp is for anyone ready to show up on camera and start creating video â whether you're just getting started or ready to level up.
đ If you're new to video, that's fine. But you need to be ready to hit record. This is a hands-on, action-oriented program. If you're not ready to try, this isn't the right fit.
âď¸Still unsure? DM me on LinkedInÂŽď¸ and let me know what's holding you back. I'll let you know if the Bootcamp is likely a good fit for you. Â

About Me
Iâm a former magazine writer turned entrepreneur who went from camera shy to helping frustrated consultants, entrepreneurs feel more comfortable and confident on video.
As a business owner, I learned that sharing content on social media, particularly LinkedInÂŽď¸, was the best way to attract potential clients, referral partners, and colleagues to collaborate with.
When colleagues started asking me for help, I realized how much I enjoyed teaching others. And Black Dog Marketing Strategies was born.
I get that people are uncomfortable being on camera. They are afraid of being judged. I felt like that too.
Finally, I realized that nobody cared how I looked or sounded, their only interest was if my message was relevant to them.
I love teaching others that too.
Let's do this!
