How to Crank Out Client-attracting Content — The Easy Way
Last week, Ben Settle promoted his book Breakneck Content for sale at a 20% discount.
The book is all about how to crank out business-building content.
As usual, Ben cranked out tons of emails to promote the sale ā at least one per day, sometimes more.
I already have the book so I wasnāt shopping. But I was readingā¦
ā¦because I always discover something interesting and new when I read his emails.
Hereās what caught me eye last week:
He described Breakneck Content as āThe July 2019 Email Players issue converted to ābookā form – very short, quick read.ā
Email Players is the print newsletter Ben sends to subscribers who pay $97/month.
He sells the book for $188.
Letās boil this downā¦
Ben Settle took a newsletter heād already writtenā¦
ā¦turned it into a bookā¦
ā¦and sold it for almost twice as much as he charged for it in its original form.
Marketers call that ārepurposing content.ā
And if you want to crank out more and better content with less effortā¦
You must repurpose.
Hereās a short list of how Iāve done it. I’ve repurposed:
- Content from an email I sent to a single prospect and turned it into a bulk email I sent to my list.
- An email I sent to my list and turned it into talking points (rough script) for videos I posted on YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
- Videos I previously created and packaged them into a Video e-Course that I used to attract and engage new leads.
- Excerpts from my podcast (video recordings) into short videos that I post on social media and YouTube.
- Old emails Iāve sent to my list and used them as the first draft for content in my upcoming book.
- Thank you emails Iāve received from happy clients and turned them into testimonials and case studies.
- Conversations I have in my group coaching program that I transcribe and turn into emails for my broader list.
ā¦And the list goes on and on.
I shudder to think how much extra time and cost it would take to create all that content from scratch ā WITHOUT repurposing stuff I created before.
I donāt think I could do it. And I know it wouldnāt be fun to try.
So if youāre struggling to crank out client-attracting content, try a little repurposing. It will make your life so much easier.
