Include Time Bars in Your Videos!

Be considerate of your viewers and include the time bar on your videos. Let them decide if they have time to watch it now or put it on their schedule. It also allows them to come back and pick up where they left off if they have to step away or take a phone call.

This is definitely a pet peeve of mine! I stopped following a “thought leader” after sitting through one of his truly valuable videos (which didn't have a time bar) and then being directed to someone else's video at the end who also didn't have a time bar.

People don't have unlimited time to sit and watch videos. I find it highly disrespectful although I am pretty sure that is not the intent. Gain and keep the respect of your audience by respecting them and their time.
