On this episode of the Maker Mastermind Show, I was asked to share some of my best content creation ideas. This question is very frequently asked because we are bombarded today with a dizzying array of ways to connect with customers and prospects through the content we create. It's overwhelming if you try to embrace every little thing, so my challenge in this episode was to share how I manage to use several content platforms effectively without going crazy.
Before diving into the meat of this topic, I want to first zoom out and share that my content production philosophy is based on my strong belief that you must be an entrepreneurial multiplier. What this means is that you must figure out how to do something one time, and get several uses for it. I share examples in the video.
Four Ways to Create Content Without Completely Losing Your Mind
The first part of the video is an announcement about the return of the Indie Business Book Club. You can skip that and go straight to the content by forwarding to 8:25.
Summary
- Talk to one person. Aim your content at one person and one person only.
- Master on one social media outlet at a time. Start with the social media outlet you think will be the most effective for you. Add others, one at a time, as you master them.
- Be consistent. Do things with regularity and as part of a routine. The more routine you have in your business, the less time you have to waste thinking about what you should do next.
- Republish content. Republish your best content to different outlets.
