But as you make more content for your social media, these are tools that will come in handy. Here are a few items to get you started growing your business through video marketing.

A RING LIGHT WITH A TRIPOD & PHONE HOLDER
Being well-lit improves video quality, and the easiest way to do that is with a ring light. This sits on a tripod and you can set your phone inside of it. The Tripod size and format depends on how much space you have! If you have a larger space, go for a larger ring light, as it will light a larger area.

This can help you film if you don’t have a steady hand, it’s a ‘smartphone video rig.’
MICROPHONES
If you’re looking to get really high quality audio, you can buy a microphone that connects to your phone. Make sure to check exactly how it connects. Some of these require a ‘dangle.’ to adapt properly.
