Pull the exact questions buyers already asked on your sales calls, in their own words, and turn each one into a video. Post it on YouTube, LinkedIn, and your blog, embed it on your domain with the transcript and schema, then check the data and go deeper.

Quick Answer

  • Your buyers have already asked their specific questions in your sales transcripts. Mine those for the exact language.
  • Turn each question into a video. Post it on YouTube, LinkedIn, and your blog, and embed it on your own domain with the transcript and schema so AI search bots can scrape it.
  • Analyze in Google Search Console and YouTube Analytics, and listen for fewer questions on sales calls. Then revise and go deeper.

We've run this play for B2B teams for years. If you want proof before the process, here's what it looked like for a real team.

The buyer already wrote your content calendar

Buyers have their questions and they are out there looking for answers. The thing most teams forget is that those same buyers already asked the specific questions on your sales calls. The transcripts are sitting there.

So mine them. Pull the questions out in the buyer's language, then turn each one into video content.

Then run the loop:

  • Post the video on YouTube, on LinkedIn, and on your blog.
  • On your own domain, make sure the video is embedded with the transcript and schema, so AI search bots can scrape it.
  • Analyze the data in Google Search Console and YouTube Analytics. Also check anecdotally: are you getting fewer questions from buyers about the topics you covered? Fewer questions is the goal, because it means the content answered them.
  • Revise. Go back and answer any unanswered questions, any new questions, or go deeper on the ones you already answered.

"My rule of thumb is just always go deeper, and just keep going deeper and deeper until you've sort of exhausted the kind of questions that they could have." — Dane Frederiksen

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do the best buyer questions for video come from?

Your sales call transcripts. Buyers have already asked their exact questions there, in their own words, which is also how they ask them in search.

Where should each buyer-question video be posted?

YouTube, LinkedIn, and your blog. The blog embed on your own domain, with the transcript and schema, is what gives AI search bots text to scrape.

How do you know a buyer-question video worked?

Check Google Search Console and YouTube Analytics, and notice whether buyers ask that question less on sales calls. Then revise: answer new questions or go deeper on the ones you already covered.

You can then mine your transcripts from your sales calls to get more detailed exact questions in their language. So the way that works is, you know, they have their questions, they're looking for answers out there. They've already asked these specific questions in your sales transcripts. So we're going to turn those into video content and then we're going to post that on YouTube and on LinkedIn and on your blog. So you're going to have your domain and you're going to make sure that you've got the video embedded in there with the transcript and schema so it can get scraped by AI search bots. Then we're going to analyze the data in places like Google Search Console, YouTube Analytics and just see anecdotally also, like, what's happening? Are we getting less questions from buyers around certain topics that we've covered in our video content? So that's the kind of thing that we're looking for, is to have less questions because we're answering them. So then we're going to revise, go through and answer any unanswered questions, any new questions, or go deeper into the ones you've already answered. And so my rule of thumb is just always go deeper, and just keep going deeper and deeper until you've sort of exhausted the kind of questions that they could have.

Full Transcript

The best way to get started with answering your buyer questions with video is to just start with the basics. Most of the questions you're going to hear for, no matter what business you have, you're going to hear these kinds of questions most of the time. Is this for me? Is this a fit? Am I the right customer? Am I in the right place? What will happen? What is your process? What's the objective? What's the outcome? Will it really work? This is about building trust, showing the steps, case studies, things like that. How hard is it? Is this going to be a lift? Am I getting myself in over my head? Will it really be something I can manage? Can I afford it? What is the general price range without getting into specifics? Maybe you need a ballpark just to know if you're in the right place. Can I wait? Or are there alternatives to doing something?

A lot of times, business decisions on purchases end up in no decision because they haven't gotten enough information to be able to move forward, so they end up just waiting. So we want to move them off the waiting. So let's get into the details of how all these work and how you can get started.

So, is this for me? We're going to clarify the ideal customer profile, the industry, and specific growth mode use cases. What will happen? Detailing your step-by-step process, the onboarding, the handoff, and implementation timelines. Will it really work? We talked about case studies, expected pipeline acceleration, and metrics for tracking, and AI search visibility, things like that. How hard is it? Explaining the required time commitment from their internal team and the overall technical lift. Can they afford it? Breaking down the pricing tiers, pilot program options, maybe the expected ROI, maybe you have a starter package, free offers. And then the cost of inaction, can I wait? Highlight the cost of inaction in detail, the competitive landscape, and lost first-mover advantage in AI search. So those are the main kinds of questions you're going to want to answer.

You can then mine your transcripts from your sales calls to get more detailed exact questions in their language. So the way that works is, they have their questions, they're looking for answers out there. They've already asked these specific questions in your sales transcripts. So we're going to turn those into video content, and then we're going to post that on YouTube, and on LinkedIn, and on your blog. So you're going to have your domain, and you're going to make sure that you've got the video embedded in there with the transcript and schema, so it can get scraped by AI search bots. Then we're going to analyze the data in places like Google Search Console, YouTube Analytics, and just see anecdotally also, like, what's happening? Are we getting less questions from buyers around certain topics that we've covered in our video content? So that's the kind of thing that we're looking for, is to have less questions because we're answering them. So then we're going to revise, go through and answer any unanswered questions, any new questions, or go deeper into the ones you've already answered. And so my rule of thumb is just always go deeper, and just keep going deeper and deeper until you've sort of exhausted the kind of questions that they could have.

So some people worry about going on camera. It's best to use your subject matter experts, because they really know their stuff. They've got the content in their heads that we're going to turn into video content. But if that's just not viable because they're busy or don't want to do it, there are other options. So you could do like a screen recording like I'm doing now using Miro, or you could make a slide deck, like with Canva or something like that, and just have like text on screen. And then underneath that, you could have captions that are written to explain your points, or you could have voiceover, maybe AI voiceover, or you could hire someone like a voice actor, or you could, if you're okay with using your voice, you could do that, probably help boost trust. They don't have to see you just to hear you. You could also work with an influencer in your industry, maybe paid sponsorship, or a partnership of some kind.

I'm always going to advocate for having people in your company that are the experts, that have the experience, the expertise, to be on camera, because when we see you and we hear you, and we can tell like the way you think, and your opinions and insights, that builds trust. And we're trying to get to a point where you can have hours of content. The Google rule I've heard is a 7-11-4 rule. So seven hours with your content, and over 11 touch points on four different platforms is what's required for a buyer to go through a B2B high-ticket sales journey. And if you think about it, the reason it takes so long, usually, because there's so many questions they have, right? And so we're going to do a good job answering those and move them down the funnel is the goal. And long-form video is a great way to get to that seven hours quickly. So that's the sort of big idea.

I'm going to warn against using AI avatars, because while that seems like a good idea, efficient AI leverage or whatever, it's not really trust-building. I think it basically seems like lying, in my opinion. So it may be okay for some people in some situations. I'm just, I'm not convinced. I'm very skeptical of that. I think it actually has potential to do more harm. So you're sending the message that your customers aren't worth your time. So I don't really like the way that that comes across.

Another option is you could do animations. It could be sort of like an infographic, cartoony animations, or it could be something more technical. You could also use B-roll or other footage that you create with AI. If it was something that, you know, having it be AI B-roll wasn't something that was going to hurt you, and it didn't seem like it was misrepresenting, then that's something that it could work. But I think generally what we're trying to do in this long-form content is educate. So using something like a Miro board is totally fine, in my opinion, because, look, I'm able to illustrate these concepts, like the flywheel concept I've been over. You take your buyer questions, move them, take the transcripts, get the questions out, turn them into video, post it, analyze it, revise it, and rinse repeat. So there I just explained something to you visually in just a couple seconds with some Miro graphics.

So really, most companies are probably in this position now where they don't have the video answers to the buyer questions out there. They've got some video content, but it's not necessarily answering the questions that they have, because if it did, they'd be moving down the funnel, in theory. And then once you've covered up all those questions with video content, that's a good place to be. And I know this because this is what I'm doing right now. As I'm posting more content, look here, August 29th, 2026, August 25th. This is kind of when I started to crack the code on how to do this and do the long form, very specific explanatory content. And you can see I'm getting rewarded by viewers, subscribers, watch time. So this is how it works in practice.

If you want to know how this works, could work for you, happy to talk and walk you through what this could look like for you to get started with the video answers to real buyer questions. So I hope that helps. Good luck. If you want, I've got a free swipe file that has basically the template of how to create content like this that's going to satisfy both the AI search bots as well as your human viewers. So click the link to download that, and I give to you. Good luck.
