It's critically important you put a 'Why Hire Me' video on your blog to clearly communicate the benefits of your services. It's very straightforward - film a 2-3 minute video to answer "Why Should I Hire You?"
Now, if you're a well trained salesperson, you would NEVER answer this question directly - rather, you'd ask carefully rehearsed questions about your prospects needs FIRST, so you could then tailor your response to their specific problems.
However, when you're video blogging, you don't have this luxury.
In other words, you must have a picture of your ideal client in your mind. How do they dress? How do they talk? Why do they buy? How do they act? What are their concerns? And more importantly, what are their needs? With this picture - you'll be able to clearly state the problems of your IDEAL prospect.
Here's why....
The most effective selling 'formula' is P-A-S. You state the (P)problem/pain, then emotionally (A)agitate this problem/pain, then you (S)solve the problem/pain. This is how I recommend you structure your 'Why Hire Me?' video for your video blog.
For example, your video will start...
1. PAIN - state the problem your prospect has
Hi there, I'm Frank Klesitz and I understand your problem.
You have this issue, and this area of concern - and it really bothers you.
And I'd be skeptical too, I've been there.
In fact, many people have this same problem, you're not alone.
You've searched everywhere for a solution.

2. AGITATE - tell them what happens if the problem isn't solved
Now, if you don't solve this problem, here is what's going to happen.
And if you make the wrong decision, here are the consequences.
Imagine your happiness when this problem is solved.
How would solving this problem change your life?
Visualize the perfect solution to this problem, does it exist?
3. SOLVE - offer your unique selling value position
