    There are some easy and FREE platforms that you can post your content onto and then share a link to your friends/family/social medias etc. for them to watch.

    The one I’ve found most useful for video content is Youtube. You can receive a lot of engagement from it, likes, comments and you can even view the watch time on your videos which can give you some insight into whether you really grabbed the viewers attention enough to get them to watch all the way to the end.

    A downside perhaps is that you don’t gain any profit from Youtube unless you are monetized through Youtube, a process that has its own criteria and set up. Yet, even if you don’t want to release the finished product onto Youtube it’s a perfect, free marketing tool for teasers and trailers!
