- How widely you will deliver: if you want to manage viewers across the whole company, Corporate, which comes with view-only users (500+) and IP address restriction
4. What to have ready before a consultation
Q. What should I prepare for the consultation?
A. Having these 3 things ready helps the conversation move quickly.
- One document you want to turn into video: PowerPoint, Word, PDF, Excel, a web page and so on
- An idea of the video you want to make: whether to turn the slides into video as they are, or rebuild it from how it is shown
- Who will watch it and how to deliver it: inside or outside the company, and whether people of other nationalities will watch
