Success Story: Mike Chang’s Six Pack Shortcuts

On March 1, 2010, fitness entrepreneur Mike Chang

decided to shoot a simple four-minute exercise routine

and post it to YouTube. It was a good start and Mike

stuck with it, adding more videos and promoting them

with video ads.

Today, Mike has more than 89 videos on his channel

with more than 82 million views: different types of

videos that market his business to distinct audiences.

He uses educational videos to demonstrate specific

routines, testimonials to show customer success stories,

and even parody videos to entertain his viewers.

On the following pages, you’ll find some creative themes you can use to make

a video in just a few hours. The three main categories are informational,

educational, and sales.
