"When people do business with other people, they don't necessarily want a speaker or a salesperson or a manager; they want another human being they can connect with."

– Julian Placino 

"There really is a difference in telling someone you can do something versus showing them, and especially as a speaker, so much is decided about your technical expertise, your sort of visual aesthetic as a speaker, and also your personality. And video allows you to do all of those things." -Julian Placino
