It’s funny how one tiny thing can take you back to a specific time and place, isn’t it?
Â
I’ve been feeling nostalgic for my childhood this week when I saw the announcement that Shrek will be back for a fifth instalment.

You can imagine my shock when I realised it’s been 23 years since the first film came out…
Â
It’s a little bit like seeing your favourite band playing your favourite album years after discovering it – nothing quite matches that wave of nostalgia.
Â
And nostalgia can be a powerful tool in your arsenal, if used correctly.
Â
We all love to reminisce with throwbacks to specific events but combining that with a look to the here and now is where the true mastery lies.
Â
So much has changed since 2001 and one of those is just how accessible great video is to business owners.
Â
Long gone are the days when video production was something only big movie studios or companies with gigantic marketing budgets could consider.
Â
Video is more prevalent than ever, and more people consume video content than anything else on the internet today – it’s arguably the best way to grab someone’s attention.
Â
The only question is, what content do you need to produce to help you make sales, get clients, grab attention, and make a difference with your marketing?
