But if you know anything at all about marketing, then you know the last thing you want to do is create a piece of content that has a limited lifespan.

After all, once that 15- or 30-minute event is over, it’s gone, right?

Wrong.

Depending on the platform you’re using, there are plenty of ways you can leverage that video to continue to attract an audience for months or even years to come.

Upload to YouTube
The “big daddy” of video marketing, YouTube enjoys its status as the 2nd most searched website only—behind Google.com by only a slim margin.

Well-optimised videos can attract thousands or even millions of views, and help drive traffic to your website, your blog, your product pages, or even the landing page of your choice.

Adding recordings of your live videos allows you to:

• Carry on a conversation with your audience through the comments section
• Add more commentary and updated information
• Attract Google with pertinent keywords and backlinks
• Encourage opt-ins by offering viewers downloadable checklists, worksheets, or even transcripts that go with the video 

 
Share With Your Partners & Colleagues
Just as video works well for your sales efforts, so to does it work for your affiliates and JV partners. Consider offering replays of your better videos for affiliates to use in their own blog posts, on social media, and anywhere else they’re promoting your offers. It will help their audience get to know you better, and give them a sense of your personality and style before they invest in your products or services.

No piece of content—whether written, pre-recorded, or live—should ever suffer the fate of being used only one time. Put all your content to work in multiple locations, and watch your influence—and your profits—soar.
