“Jake was key contributor to eBay Deals goal of $1B GMV in 2015. Having the privileged of working with Jake on several marketing campaigns, I witnessed an intelligent, dedicated, hard working and extremely customer focused sourcer and merchandiser. He routinely QA'd his events and deals to make sure the buying experience is world class. Jake continuously exceeds events/campaign goals that he owned, driving incremental GMV for the business. He is the kind of person that exemplifies the highest quality in all that he does. In addition, he's capable of responding quickly to the ever changing demands of the program which helped him gained respect from his partners and peers. Jake was a pleasure to work with and I truly enjoyed and having him on the team. I highly recommend him for any position in any organization and would be happy to work with him again in the future.”

How do you use storytelling and emotion to connect with your viewers?
You can't underestimate your audience needs. Remember, when your solution/product/service is solving a problem tied to their success you'll have their attention. Start with these questions to understand the audience: "Who is our customer?" "What experience(s) are they craving for or what problems are they solving for?" "Why do are customer have these needs/demands?" "How does our offering meet these needs?" Once you have a solid understanding of needs, then ask yourself these questions about your video: "Are we thinking big enough?" "Are we setting our offer standards high enough?" "Is are content diving deep enough into our customers needs?"

How do you use storytelling and emotion to connect with your viewers?
I've found that authenticity in conveying emotion through storytelling is key paramount. If you don't have authenticity, then you have nothing, and your audience will be able to tell. However, before the audience experiences your story, you should be able to feel something from the story. In other words, if your story doesn't strike the authenticity cord for you, then chances are it won't with your audience.
