Like I said today, I wanted to share with you my tips on how to stay consistent with creating content. We all know it's so important to be creating consistent content for our business, to be able to grow our audience and to be able to build that know like and trust factor with our current audience and new audience. So here are some of the things that I do to remain consistent. I always like to remember the quote or the saying fail to plan, plan to fail. So if you aren't making a plan, if you aren't making a content plan, then you're probably going to fail at remaining consistent. If you want to hear how I create a content plan, specifically I did an entire video on that. You can check it out right up here. I'll link it on the cards and also down in the description box. But the first thing I do to come up with content ideas is I do my market research. So what I mean by that is I'll pop into Facebook groups, maybe ask a question, maybe what are people struggling with when it comes to video tech or when it comes to video editing, just to see what people are really struggling with so that I can craft my content around those specific pain points. I'll also keep a spreadsheet of all the questions that I get asked personally, whether that's on social media or on YouTube or through email. I'll keep track of all of those questions that I'm getting asked and I'll also go ahead and check out what industry leaders are talking About. I'm obviously not going to copy their content, but they know what's trending. They're getting the same questions too. Whatever they're talking about is obviously a pain point for somebody. So I'll take a look to see what they're talking about and maybe put my spin on different topics they are talking about. Then I will block time or batch my content. What I mean by blocking time or batching is I will take an entire block of time and see. Save that for content creation. So I will film all of my videos for a month in one day. In the morning, I'll sit down and I'll research my ideas, check out the keywords, see what people are actually searching, and craft my content. Then in the afternoon, I film. I'll film six videos in one day. And that just really helps me to stay consistent because filming is the hardest part. You have to set up everything. You have to speak to the camera, you know, maybe reword some things, repeat some of your lines. That's really the hardest part. And once you have it done, then you can edit it at any time that you want. I'll also block time for editing to make sure that I'm getting the editing done. So that's really a great way to stay consistent. I'm also remembering, you know, what are my strategies going into 2017. How can I create content that filters people into what I have planned for 2017? It's all about planning, thinking ahead, what kind of content people want to hear, and how that can relate to your ultimate strategy. Finally, another great idea to stay consistent is come up with themes or series. Maybe every Tuesday you want to provide a tutorial. So. So every Tuesday on your blog or on your YouTube channel is tutorial Tuesday. This makes it so much easier because you automatically know what you need to create that day. You could sit down and film like five tutorials in one day. And all you have to do is just film a quick little intro of yourself and then do your tutorials or think about a series. This also will help you create video ideas. So maybe you want to create a series on how to start a business or how you started a business and provide a couple videos of your tips on how to start a business, things that you struggle with, things you wish you'd known, things that really helped you. And this is just a new series that people can keep coming back. You can advertise it. Every Monday of the month is a new video in my series, how to Start a Business. It just really helps you create consistent content. People know what they're coming back for. And again, it helps you stay consistent. Those are some of the tips that I have on how to stay consistent creating your content. If you have any other tips, let me know down below. Share them on how you stay consistent creating content.
