Funny, Human, and Effective: Chris Bogue on Using Video to Sell Without Selling Out

Chris Bogue joins Chris Nelson on Human Marketing to unpack the real power of video in sales, content, and comedy.

From Second City improv to viral LinkedIn skits, Chris shares how he helps brands and sales pros connect through pattern-breaking video.

They dive into scripting with soul, the limitations of AI tools, and how to craft video DMs that actually get replies.

Plus, why human imperfections, not cinematic polish, are what drive connection in the feed.
