Video is an amazing medium. Today with Aaron Arnold, we are going to take a look at how their video company is embracing culture and growing through it in their services to Fortune 500 companies.
“[It’s about] how we can get the most out of every situation, while having fun and doing what we need to do.” – Aaron Arnold on motivating employees
Marketing Through Videos
Aaron is the CEO of FeatherDot Productions (FDP), a video production house which provides video content for marketing. They have clients all over the world and have helped them increase their reach and sales.
They do video production, editing, filming corporate events, licensing, and more. Currently, they are expanding their business with a sales team.
Hiring the Right Person
People apply to the job initially because they want to work. At FDP, they want to know the candidates at a personal level.
“If you can connect to [people] on a personal level, you can connect to them in a professional level.” – Aaron Arnold
They try to get to know them better during the interview, just like they do with their clients. They have a vetting process that ensures the right fit.
Growing Through Culture
FDP also welcomes interns in the film program. They teach them, while they are with them. According to Aaron, it is a way to open doors for them to advance themselves.
“We give them a lot of the tools they can work with in order for them to move on and move up.” – Aaron Arnold
They have had employees who left to pursue something else and returned after awhile. Employees love the company culture. It is a culture that alllows them to grow and enjoy their work.

About Jaime Jay
Meet Jaime Jay – a man who wears many hats, and wears them all admirably. He's a master connector, an entrepreneur extraordinaire, and a published author who knows how to get things done.
Before he found his way to the business world, Jaime served his country as a brave paratrooper in the U.S. Army. But that's just the beginning of his many accomplishments.
He's the founder of the renowned Bottleneck Distant Assistant Services firm, and his book "Quit Repeating Yourself" has become a must-read for entrepreneurs everywhere.
When he's not busy building his empire, you can find him on his beloved Harley Davidson, cruising through the countryside and taking in the invigorating effects of Uitwaaien – a Dutch practice that involves facing the wind to boost health and relieve stress.
He enjoys spending his free time outside building stuff with his wife, Nikita the dog and their two kittens (for now at least) Tommy and Tater.
He is ‘over-the-moon’ happily married to his wonderful wife Sara, his amazing daughter, Jessica, who is serving our country as a United States Army soldier. Jaime and Sara are the proud grand parents of two beautiful little girls.
