Personal videos. We buy from people we know. Anything you can do is a viable option to connection with authors, everything requires time, effort, promoting. Be authentic. The time to start is now. Get past the awkwardness. Your audience doesn't know that you are learning in public. Honesty is disarming. Use empathy and understanding in business. People want to help. That connects you to your audience. Holding out the hand of perfection. Dear World, Here's Me. Write to Someone. (Everyone is not your core audience.) It's not dead unless it's dead to you.
