Your customers are already on YouTube.
Before they call anyone, people look up their problem. They watch a video. Then they call the person who helped them. Right now, that person is not you.
Plumber
why is my water heater making noise
Dentist
does a root canal hurt
Lawyer
what to do after a car accident
Roofer
how long does a roof last
Ads stop the day you stop paying. A helpful YouTube video keeps showing up in search for years, and keeps bringing you calls.
How we pick your videos
No guessing. Every video starts with what your customers search.
- 01
We listen
We collect the questions your customers ask you, and what people in your area type into YouTube.

We look
We find the videos already winning in your trade, and work out why they work.
- 03
We pick
We choose the ideas with the best shot at bringing you calls, not just views.

You see every idea and script first. Nothing gets made until you say yes.

Edit and post
Polished edits back in 3 days. We test titles and thumbnails, post your video and track how it does.

“30 Second Explainer Videos has a very quick turnaround time and the staff work with you to make sure your video is exactly as you want it. We've done several videos and have had great success!”

“We gave 30 Second our social media business following a long-term search for a full-service partner. They do not disappoint.

Our promise to you.
Love your first video
Or we remake it free. No questions asked.
A video doesn't do well?
We test a new title and thumbnail at no extra cost, and use what we learn on the next one.
No long contracts
Start with 3 months. Then go month to month and cancel any time.
You own everything
Every video, thumbnail and script is yours to keep, even if you leave.
Questions, answered.
Still not sure? Ask us on a free call. No pressure.
How much time do I need to give?
About 30 to 60 minutes a week. You check your scripts and record with us on a short video call. We do everything else. Pick animated videos and you never have to be on camera at all.
I'm not good on camera. Is that a problem?
No. We coach you live while you record and edit out the slips. Or skip the camera: we can make your videos fully animated with a pro voice actor.
Will the videos sound like me?
Yes. On the first call we learn how you talk and what your customers ask you. Every script is written in your words, and you approve it before we make anything.
Where do the video ideas come from?
From your customers. We look at the questions people in your area type into YouTube and Google, and at the videos already winning in your trade. Then we pick the ideas most likely to bring you calls.
Do I need a big channel to start?
No. Most of our clients start with zero videos. You don't need millions of views. A few hundred views from the right local people can mean new jobs every month.
How soon will I see results?
Your first videos go live within 30 days. Most channels take 3 to 6 months to really build up, so we ask for a 3-month start. Every month you get a simple report on views, calls and leads.
How is this different from hiring a video editor?
An editor only edits. We do the whole job: picking ideas, writing scripts, coaching you, editing, thumbnails, titles, posting and reports. One team, one monthly price.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $997 a month for 2 videos. Most businesses pick Growth at $1,997 a month for a new video every week. On a free call we will tell you which plan fits, or if YouTube is not right for you yet.
What if a video doesn't do well?
We change it, free. We test a new title and thumbnail, and we use what we learn to plan the next video. If you do not love your first video, we remake it at no cost.
Why YouTube and not just paid ads?
Ads stop the day you stop paying. A good YouTube video keeps showing up in search for years, so it keeps bringing you customers long after it is posted.
Who is this for?
Small business owners who sell a service people search for: plumbers, roofers, dentists, lawyers, clinics, accountants, real estate agents and more.
Can I cancel?
Yes. After your first 3 months, you go month to month and can cancel any time. You keep every video we made for you.
Free 30-minute call
Your first videos could be live in 30 days.
