Brenda Kok

Brenda is the Founder of Sparkling Professionals. She works with consultants, trainers and experts who are struggling to grow their business. By helping them selecting and implementing video tools, supported with a personal video strategy, the overwhelm for choosing tools and applications disappears. The entrepreneurs are quickly capable of creating representative videos themselves to (re)connect with employees, customers and partners.

This results in more profits and freedom for the entrepreneur as they are more likely to be found and trusted by the clients they desire to attract. Also because they have become flexible to service clients online.

Brenda spoke about digital marketing tools and tactics.
