We help b2b SaaS marketers turn their video footage into leads | Founder at A2 Media | Ex-Shopify & Affirm.

Hi, I'm Ademola 🙋🏿‍♂️ a professional magician turned video marketer. 

I know, weird combo. But here's the thing: after 20+ years of performing magic, I realized something... 

The same principles that make an audience lean in during a trick are the the same ones that make a buyer trust a brand.

That's why I built A2 Media. I wanted to help as many brands as possible use video the way it should be used: to build trust, tell great stories, and connect with audiences. 

The added benefit of content done right is that it fills pipeline, and closes deals faster 😉

Here's what I've noticed over the years:

Most B2B brands don't lose to better products. They lose to better storytelling. Not because their product is weak, but because they haven't figured out how to earn trust through content.

How it works:

You probably don't need a fancier camera or an influencer to bring in views. But what you definitely need is clearer messaging and a deeper understanding of your buyer. So we start there. What do your buyers believe? What's holding them back? What needs to click before they'll ever talk to sales? Then we turn that into multiple videos that your prospects actually want to watch. Content that positions you as the obvious choice.

The results?
→ Your sales team stops explaining the same thing 100x because the content already did it
→ Your brand shows up in the feeds of people you actually want to close
→ Your pipeline fills with pre-educated prospects who already understand your value
→ Your content drives demos and closes deals - not just brand awareness

We don’t make content for likes. We build video systems that educate buyers, create demand, and do the heavy lifting before the sales call ever happens.

We partner best with B2B SaaS companies that have:
✅ $10M+ in annual recurring revenue
✅ A marketing and social team
✅ Camera-ready talent

A few things we’ve helped make happen:
→ Okta: Multiple video series → 20K subs + thousands of DevDay signups
→ Reveal: 4M+ organic impressions in new markets → acquisition shortly after
→ Nearbound: Cut sales time-to-close by 50% with targeted video series
→ Nice Commerce: 482% subscriber growth + multiple 5-figure deals from video
→ A2 Media: Tripled inbound leads with audience-first video edutainment

Yesterday, I was a loser and a fraud.

Today I hit 15,000 followers. 

When I was 5 years old, my dad asked me what I want to be when I grow up.

I paused for dramatic effect. 

The moment I entered this world, I knew what I wanted.

And in my heart, I knew I could have taken the easy road.

(Becoming a world leader, or the world’s first ethical billionaire.)

But I chose something more ambitious.

“Father, I say this knowing full well that it will be an arduous journey, but one day I hope to cross the threshold of 15,000 followers on the world’s sh*ttiest social media platform.”

(This is how I spoke back then. I was born in the UK)

My Dad looked at me, smiled and said:

“Son, you can be whatever you want to be.” 

(Less than a year later, my parents had Rotimi Adelakun. Apparently the traditional Nigerian meaning of his name is “backup retirement plan???”)

Today, I’ve achieved what I set out to do when I was 5 years old.

And it’s because all of you choose to continue to tune into my daily mental breakdowns and occasional video advice.

Thank you all for being here on this journey and helping me fulfill my lifelong dream.

“I mean, we’re basically rich now right?” 

It was 2018. I’d just started my new job at Shopify making $70,000/yr.

(For my American audience, that’s like $112.87 USD/yr with the current exchange rates)

I remember telling Maggie that I couldn’t believe that I’d made it already.

How we were about to live our dream life, and how at my age I’d already found the job to fund it. 

I mean look at these numbers: 

Rent: $500
Groceries: $500
Fun budget: $500

So what was I going to do with the remaining gajillion dollars I was making every month?

It was all so exciting! I had gone from an unhappy employee at my last company, to working at my dream company, and being paid a salary I was thrilled about.

There was just one big problem that I hadn’t realized yet.

And if you’re reading this, there’s a good chance that you’ve experienced this too. 

So I ask you…

What happened the last time you hit a big goal of yours? 

Something you dreamed about. Something you worked your ass off for.

You reach it and then… what?

Inner peace? Eternal fulfillment? A sense of calm that lasts for generations to come?

Pffft 😂

…Yeah so, this was my very first lesson in the fact that human beings cannot live without aspirations and goals. 

And the more we learn, the more we yearn. (That was a bar 🔥)

But the problem is, we often chase things at the expense of what matters most:

Our health. Time with loved ones. The things that make us, us.

Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with ambition.

Just don’t lose yourself going after shiny things for the wrong reasons.

Accomplishment feels amazing… but only for a moment.

I mean, when I joined Shopify, that high lasted two weeks, max.  

Then I was on to the next thing.

We all get caught up in the chase.

But most of the time, we’re chasing for approval, admiration, or validation from people who don’t really care about how we live our lives. 

It’s easier said than done but, choose your own happiness as much as you possibly can.

Dig deep and find what that thing is. 

I’m willing to bet that it’s not tied to the milestones you’re chasing right now.

But there’s still time to change that :).

Let joy and fulfillment guide you.

📌 P.S. To me 8 years ago: INVEST YOUR DISPOSABLE CASH IN BITCOIN, DON'T F*** THIS UP.

k, so I have to admit that this is WAY worse than I thought it would be 😭😭

Is anyone else a huge fan of Asana?

Well, we might be bigger fans than you. How big?

Big enough to make them a video they didn’t even ASK for.

(More like a content remix)

Most people just use their product. 

We stalked them. 

Then proceeded to fall into a rabbit hole of their content across platforms…

Then we blinked, blacked out, and woke up having made them a video?

Yeah, inspiration hit us pretty hard 😂

You see, Asana’s video content is already fantastic.

On top of that, their branding is incredible.

We just added a little bit of A2 Media magic on the visual storytelling side of things.	

As a former professional magician, one of my biggest obsessions is directing attention. 

AKA knowing exactly what we want our audience to pay attention to, and when. 

That’s the lens we brought to this piece, and I hope you enjoy it.

Oh and if you’re on the Asana team and you want to use this, DM me and I’ll send you the full file.

No strings attached. 

P.S. LoMo Phillips, you crushed it in this! The way you and the team show up on YouTube is awesome. Keep it up :).

P.P.S. We're not joking about stalking you. Please don't call the police 🚨

This week, many of you told me that "bald looks good on me."

Okay, try lying to me now.

POV: You get laid off by your AI manager.

That 12-minute video with less than 200 views? 

It helped close two six-figure deals.

Because it gave the right person exactly what they needed to buy. 

That’s the power of long-form video bb 😉.

It’s the best video format for shifting beliefs, building trust, and moving buyers to action.

For us at A2 Media, we’re betting on long-form.

Because when it’s done right, it outperforms short form in the money making department.

We’ve seen it firsthand:
→ 30-second shorts with 50K–100K views… zero leads in weeks.
→ A 7-minute video with 2,000 views 5 leads in days.

The more time that people spend with you, the more likely they are to trust you.

And the more they trust you, the more likely they are to buy from you. 

The same is the case for our clients. 

Thoughtful long-form in the right places outperform viral shorts every time.
But the truth is, you need a healthy mix of both video formats. 

Short form grabs attention.

Long form does the convincing.

This video covers how to find a healthy balance of both.

We cover: 
→ Why short-form is burning out your audience
→ Why long-form is finally making a comeback
→ How to do both without doubling your workload

The full video is out on YouTube now.

If your videos feel like they should work, but don’t...

You’re probably missing one of these 6 LinkedIn video rules. 

(The video says 5 rules, but I forgot a major one haha. Whoops!)

I’ve been there, and I used to think that the problem was our video quality. 

So I did everything you’re “supposed” to do. 

Bought all the fancy gear, spent more time editing, and really leveled up our productions.

And guess what happened?

That’s right! We didn’t get more leads 😂

I don’t want you to waste years figuring this out like I did. 

So I’m here to reveal some easy tweaks that moved the needle for us. 

Namely:
→ 3 text tips to boost comprehension
→ 3 video tips to keep people watching
→ 1 bonus rule I forgot to say out loud

3 things you should have in the text part of your post: 

1️⃣ Ask a question: Most people don’t comment because they don’t know what to say. Help them!

2️⃣ Don’t spoil the whole thing: Share most of the value in your text post, but leave at least one insight as a reward for viewers who take the time to watch. 

3️⃣ Have a CTA: Doesn’t have to be salesy. Invite them to check out another post, watch another video, or save the video for later. Anything that moves them along the buyers journey.

3 things you should have in the video part of your post:

1️⃣ Always have captions: 80% of people scroll LinkedIn without sound. No captions = No view.

2️⃣ Grab attention fast: A great visual in the first 3 seconds leads to 58% higher watch times.

3️⃣ Add an in-video text title: Viewers should instantly know what they’ll get if they stick around.

There’s a ton more I could tell you, but these 6 things are enough to help you make a noticeable difference in the number of meaningful conversations you have. 

And conversations are where deals happen :).

What did I miss? 

(Let me know in the comments, I just might build my next post around it)

Me: "I don't think we're the right agency for you"

2 years later, we're still working with Okta/Auth0.

You never know where a conversation with no agenda is going to take you.

Now, I'm sure any salesperson reading this is thinking: "Why would you disqualify yourself?" 😂

But hear me out. I didn't even realize it was a sales call.

A couple nights before, one of my best friends reached out. 

She called because I was telling her about how I was stretching myself too thin recently.

"It might help to chat with someone who has gone through the same thing. Want me to connect you?"

I took the call. 

Little did I know my new friend Greg was about to turn my world upside down.

5 minutes in, we're laughing like old friends. 

Talking about all the hard stuff that goes into being THE video person.

Then he says: "Hey, I know this isn't why we're chatting, but we're actually looking for someone to help us out. What do you think about working with us?"

I was shocked.

Someone at this crazy huge company wants to work with US!?

Before I could think, the Canadian in me replied: "I don't know if we're the right people. I mean, we're going through a lot of the same problems, right?"

He laughed.

"Don't worry, I have a feeling you're the right person to do this with."

He was wrong. This is the worst partnership that has ever exis-

I'm kidding. It's been absolutely wonderful.

We've learned a ton from Greg, and we've brought our best work to him and the team.

All because he took a chance on me.

All because of a single call with great energy.

I have to be honest, I wouldn't have a functioning business without my network.

So take those calls. Meet those people. In whatever way suits you.

Sure, you’ll find that some people aren't for you. 

But you meet a lot of incredible people along the way.

Greg, I appreciate you more than you know. Thanks for being a friend, an incredible champion, and a teacher.

And to our day 1 editor Patricio Londaits (who is also in the photo) we wouldn't still have Greg and the team as clients without your vision, and your incredible work.

Let's make 2026 just as great as the last two years.

Guys... Where even is Fort Lauderdale?

Please be nice. I'm Canadian. Btw, you coming to this or what? 

It's called Above the Fold: 
→ 2 days in Ft. Lauderdale (wherever that is)
→ No talks. No slides.
→ 100% hands-on workshops.

We've got a ton of people that I love and respect coming to talk.

People like:
Tas Bober to teach us about landing pages.
Jess Cook to teach us about content strategy.
Eric Holland 💀 to teach us about interactive demos.

Oh, and none of it will be recorded. 

Meaning, if you miss it, you miss it. 

This is the last week to get tickets my friends. 

Come hang 😁: https://lnkd.in/gZKyHuzp

P.S. Sahil Patel thanks for inviting me to this awesome event! Means a lot :)

Last month, Maggie Arai kicked me out of the house.

This month, she's finally letting me hang out with her new friends. 

You see, Maggie is a brilliant entrepreneur.

And with that, comes a ton of incredible entrepreneurs that want to be part of her circle.

I wanted to hang out with them too.

But apparently, I needed to be VETTED!?

On a serious note, Maggie is leaning back into her gift of hosting events.

Historically, she’s connected thousands of people in Toronto through friend making events. 

Her events were so good that they were covered on Global News and the Toronto Star.

And now she’s doing something similar, but new. 

Have you heard of Founders Who Give A F*ck?

Probably. But if not, it’s a community of founders who well… give a f*ck ;). 

Founders who give a f*ck about other humans, about building values-led businesses, and who are just genuinely cool people.

So I guess what I’m saying is…

If you’re a founder in Toronto, do you wanna hang out with me or not?

More importantly, do you want to be in the room with other cool, likeminded people who are just like you, and hate traditional networking because it’s too transactional? 

Good. I’ll see you there.

Canadians waking up today realizing that Hell might actually have frozen over.

You can focus on going viral, or you can focus on making money.

For 99% of brands, you can’t do both at the same time.

I used to think going viral was the holy grail of marketing.

Looking back, that was because I wasn’t seeing the full picture.

A lot of B2B brands we praise for big reach still struggle to understand how it ties to revenue.

Yet, going viral remains the metric everyone seems to chase.

Some of the most successful brands we’ve come across are the ones that think differently about this.

They don’t focus on massive reach. They focus on getting in front of the right people, at the right time, and positioning themselves as the only option.

I have to be honest, it still catches me off guard to see low view counts tied to record revenue months, but that’s how strong the conditioning around “reach” still is for myself and many others.

I’ve seen this play out in my own content as well. When a post has broad, mass appeal, engagement usually goes up. There are more likes, more comments, more shares.

But very few inquiries come in.

When I create content specifically for my ideal customer, the opposite happens.

The reach is smaller, but the conversations are better.

Close rates go up.

We see the same thing with our clients. The videos that perform best from a revenue standpoint are rarely flashy. 

They go deeper into the problems a specific buyer is dealing with. They take time to explain context. They give the viewer space to build trust.

Longer content often performs better here, not because length is the goal, but because trust takes time.

If you’re planning your video content, here’s a simple way to think about it:
→ Write down every problem your ideal buyer has.
→ Create content that helps them move through those problems and change their beliefs.
→ Always point to other helpful content.
→ Make it easy for them to reach out.

Bonus: Don’t be afraid to ask for the sale sometimes. If you’ve given enough value, your viewers will not be offended.

(Personally, I like to do a 95% give, 5% ask ratio).

If you take anything away from this post, let it be this:

Going viral gets eyeballs.

Targeted content gets buyers.

Which is more important to you?

Is this AI, or is Dom Odoguardi really in Toronto right now?

CTAs don’t always belong at the end of your video.

And if that’s where yours live, you’re leaving money on the table.

(📌 Scroll to the comments for a guide for the best places to put your CTA. Then go thank Wistia).

I know what you’re thinking:
→ “I don’t want to be salesy.”
→ “ I just want to educate my customers and not pressure them.”

Well, same. 

I’m a huge believer in educating your audience and solving real problems.

But if you don’t give your viewers any direction after you’ve earned their attention, you’ve missed an opportunity to build trust with them.

This can be done in so many ways:

Encouraging people to watch another video, linking out to a helpful PDF or resource, or even just letting them know straight up that the solution they’re looking for is YOU.

(Just make sure if you’re pitching, it’s not painful to watch. SaaS can be so stiff sometimes lol)

The simple fact of the matter is, education without direction makes it excruciatingly difficult to convert your viewers.

All great content creators know this, which is why all of their videos are designed to take you further down the rabbit hole.

Eventually you consume enough of their content to go “wait a sec… I should work with these people!”

Yes. Yes you should.

That is what a well-designed video content strategy is all about. 

If you look at our website, every single video has a CTA in the first 5 seconds. Not at the end. 

And our conversion rate from viewer to action? 30%.

All from a seemingly harmless button that pops up and quietly encourages people to click if they want to learn more about what they’re watching.

If you don’t explicitly tell people what to do next, they move on.

Or worse, they’ll take all the lessons you’ve given them and buy from someone else who wasn’t afraid to ask.

Don’t waste the attention that you earned. Make sure you do something with it. 

Hot Tip: Use tools like Wistia, Tolstoy: AI Commerce Platform, or VideoAsk to place CTA’s throughout your content. Most people don’t know this, but you can also put CTA's known as "cards" on YouTube!

Me: "If I was invited to a game show, I'd definitely win."

Mom: "That's nice, honey."

Turns out my mom was right. 

Because I was on a game show recently, and I got absolutely decimated.

...I know I'm not supposed to spoil the ending but Sahil Patel made crushing me look easy on this episode of CRO crimes.

Do you suck at video? Me too. 

Here are 5 things I wish I knew when I started. 

1️⃣ Your first batch of videos will suck. A lot. Like, a lot, a lot.

You'll hate the sound of your voice, the way you look, and the idea of putting yourself out there. However, if you commit to it for a couple of months something magical will happen... One day you won’t suck 🤷🏿‍♂️

2️⃣ Batching your content is the only way to stay sane. 

Yes, there are creators out there that create net new content every day. Is it insanely hard? Yes. Do they have mental breakdowns every other day? Also yes. The easiest thing to do is stick to one focused day of filming every couple of weeks, and shoot a ton of content at once. Then go back later and chop it up into something useful.

📌 Ex. Record for an hour, cover 10 topics, turn it into 20 pieces of VALUABLE and ACTIONABLE content.

3️⃣ Nobody reeeally cares about your fancy equipment.

Yeah you look better, but your storytelling, delivery, and takeaways are probably still unclear. Stop buying equipment that you don't need to tell stories that people don't want to hear in 4k. A fancy camera won't make your content more interesting, just like an expensive pan won't make you a better cook.

4️⃣ BE YOURSELF, DAMN IT.

The reason the cliche “don’t meet your heroes” is a thing is because people tend to not be themselves online. It's much easier to show up as the person you are and create content authentically (I don’t care if it’s a buzzword, it’s important) than try to be someone you're not. There's nothing more disappointing than meeting people you look up to in real life and realizing that they're not who they said they were.

5️⃣ Listen to your audience.

The questions they ask, the comments they leave, the content they engage with most - it's all valuable data telling you exactly what to create next. Listen to them, and you’ll reduce the likelihood of creative blocks or lack of a clear direction. All you need to commit to is keeping your goals and your viewers’ interests aligned.

If I'd known these 5 things from day one, I would have:

→ Saved thousands of dollars on equipment.
→ Not wasted hundreds of hours trying to figure out what to create.
→ Not stressed over trying to be someone I wasn’t. 

The good news is, now I can teach others to not make the same mistakes.

Be patient, batch smartly, listen to your audience, and stay authentic. 

And for goodness sake, just use your phone. 

Good luck 🙋🏿‍♂️

Video Producer | Shark Enthusiast | Boulder Bro-ish

I picked up a camera for the first time when I was 6. I still haven’t put it down. I literally have footage from every stage in my life to prove it. From the moment I picked up the Sony Handycam, I was obsessed with storytelling. 

Everybody has a story to tell — whether it’s a hidden voice, a brand or a 6-year-old kid with a camera. In whatever I do, I aim to tell the untold story. 

Currently, I’m Commsor’s in-house video editor! Previously I’ve worked with Lavender, Fleishman-Hillard, GoArmy, Steelcase, University of Florida and more. My skills include Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Final Cut Pro X, DSLR + Cinema cameras, videography, photography, influencer marketing, diversity & inclusion, storytelling and writing.

If your captions still look like that (you know the neon green / yellow / red ones)…

You’re probably losing people before they finish the sentence.

Trends work, until everyone uses them. Then the “look” gets oversaturated and people scroll.

My take: keep captions simple and on brand.

You don’t need flashy animations. Viewers are totally fine with clean, TV-style captions.

Captions are for accessibility. The moment they become distracting is the moment you lose your audience.

As someone who grew up in Florida, any flurry of snow is something worth pulling a camera out for 

Also, highlighting the benefits of buying LUTs - I was able to film in LOG and edit this all under 30 minutes because I could just slap a LUT on

This one is from Andrew Paul - his "One-Click Lut"

Usually, I use a base LUT and make custom adjustments (lighting, colors, etc.) myself. But, for the sake of speed, these types of LUTs are awesome

Most, if not all, "free" LUTs won't come out as well color graded as this 🎨

Most people don’t actually hate being on camera. It just feels unnatural.

We didn’t evolve talking to tiny glass rectangles with a red light staring back at us 😅

If you want to sound more confident on video, stop trying to be confident and fix these three things instead:

1. Get clear on the one thing you’re saying
2. Ditch word-for-word scripts
3. Slow your pacing by fixing your breath and posture, not your words

Confidence on camera isn’t a personality trait. It’s a process.

My wife might be a finance major that handles all the numbers in the relationship, but little known fact: She's an incredible artist

And she finally opened her Etsy page

Genevieve has been making these pet in martini glass drawings for friends, and now she's making them for you!

I've watched her spend hours and hours on each of these, hand drawing and coloring each one. The talent is overwhelming to me tbh

Here's the deal, last year I told her I want to move to the Netherlands and establish my own company. She left everything she knew and all our comfort to join me. 

Now, I think it's time for her to chase her dreams. Make art. Play music. All the cool feel-good things. And I'd love your help in supporting her :)

My desk is kind of sacred to me. It’s where the thinking happens. Where ideas turn into execution.

So I take my setup pretty seriously.

Here are five must-haves on my desk as a creative:

1. 0.38 (or thinner) pens + notebooks
 
0.5 is acceptable, but the thinner the pen, the better. And yes, always a notebook nearby to catch thoughts before they disappear.

2. Multiple drinks
 
One big water bottle for hydration… and something fun (dirty chais, smoothies, etc).

3. Fingerboards or fidget toys

Tiny skateboards are my go-to right now, but spinners and mini puzzles have earned desk time too.

4. Noise-canceling headphones

Working around other people = essential. I love hearing my wife practice piano next door, just not while I’m editing. Headphones on, world off.

5. Lights
