"A two minute video done properly with a Direct Response approach, like the home shopping network does and they're master of it, I believe can convey a million words of information because you're hitting people with five modalities at the same time.

You're able to hit all parts of their brains at the same time with visuals - multiple visuals. You're able to look them in the eye. You're able to build trust. You're able to demonstrate. You're able to give so much information."
