Think about the free content you create as infotainment. People are wanting to just casually browse the web, browse social media. They want to be entertained. You don't have to tell jokes or sing or dance. You can if you want to, but at least just know that when you're making a video or writing something, just try to tell a story. Try to engage their need for entertainment while also giving some value when they're ready to study, that's when education comes in. So from infotainment to education, and that's where you can create online courses that teach them step by step how to do something. And then finally transformation is where they want to embed that knowledge deeply into their system. That's where they can they might hire you for one to one coaching or join a group coaching program. So infotainment to education to transformation. I hope this helps you as a framework to think about content.
