Being Consistent and Comfortable With Content

First, you need to understand the importance of being consistent. If you want to have a successful online business, you have to commit to some form of content creation. Lately, for me, that’s been podcasting. Whatever it is for you, be consistent with your offerings so that clients can rely on you.

You may feel nervous when you put new content out there. I certainly do. However, I’ve learned that this is just fine. It takes a certain degree of discomfort to move forward. This will help build confidence so that you can silence both your inner and outer critics.

I put out a lot of free content. This is important to me because I feel that everyone should have access to my content. Sure, free content is a marketing strategy. However, it can also make a huge difference for people who can’t afford paid offerings.

Being Prepared and Scheduled for Success

Spending some time preparing your material in advance leads to better content. Set some time aside for planning. If you value what you put out there, being prepared is the best way to ensure its quality. 

For me, I find keeping a schedule is the key to making this all happen. If I don’t block out time to create, it just won’t happen. To consistently create content, treat it like a regular appointment in your calendar.

 

Keep It Simple Silly

Just because you’re creating content on a regular basis, doesn’t mean it has to be new each time. Coming up with novel content every time will exhaust you. There’s value in repetition. Just present it in different formats. This reinforces your messages and makes them more accessible to your audience.

The better you know your audience, the easier it will be to create content. Get specific on who you serve and you’ll better understand their challenges, interests, and goals.

As your audience grows, it’s crucial to set up boundaries. You don’t have to share everything. People don’t need to know everything about you for you to be able to help them. So decide what is worth sharing and what’s better left unsaid.

With all this being said, it’s always best to keep things as simple as possible. Take complex topics and communicate them in simple ways. That’s what your audience is looking for. That’s what will help everyone the most.
