Today I'm asking for your help! We've been tossing around the idea of creating videos on YT that would help women who exercise at home. But the question is this: are you looking for videos to help you navigate home fitness? We think our audience is looking for more than just a workout to do, but we need you to confirm that. Based on our research, you love to learn and are an audience that prioritizes exercise and health but you're very busy with your careers and family. You do have questions about which equipment to buy, which on demand services to try and why, how to make your home exercise routine effective and fun for you. But would you/have you ever used YT to help with any of those things? Would you watch a short video that showed you how to sign of for BODi and what it looks like to have a membership? How about a video that walks you how to create a worout playlist on YT? Where do you find these answers now? What kinds of videos would help you navigate the digital world of home exercise?
