In Episode 157 of the Digipreneur FM podcast, we discuss the common overwhelm when starting your content creation journey as a business owner or entrepreneur. The episode dives into the pervasive advice of prioritizing video content, recognizing that this may not suit everyone due to various personal reasons. We emphasize exploring different mediums based on comfort levels, and I share personal experiences of starting with blogging due to its flexibility and ability to edit. We also highlight the importance of confidence in content creation, by starting in a comfortable medium to eventually expand into other formats like video and podcasts.
Three key takeaways from the episode are:
1. Start Where You’re Comfortable: Begin your content creation journey in a medium that feels most natural and comfortable to you, whether it’s writing, audio, or video. This approach helps build confidence and eases the transition into other content formats.
2. Content Quality Over Format: Not all video content is effective. High-quality content is key, and forcing oneself into a medium like video without the necessary skills or comfort can do more harm than good. It’s important to produce content that reflects well on your business.
3. Utilize Various Content Creation Strategies: For those uncomfortable with direct content creation methods, we provide strategies for generating content indirectly, such as recording your voice and transcribing these thoughts into written form, then polishing with AI tools like ChatGPT for blog articles or converting them into carousels for social media. This method allows individuals to start creating content without having to be in front of a camera or write extensively from scratch.
The episode underscores the significance of content creation in today’s digital landscape for building a business’s presence and authority. It encourages finding a personal path to content creation that aligns with one’s strengths and preferences, ensuring a sustainable and effective content strategy.
I hope this episode helps you when starting your content creation journey as you build your business.
