Time Mangement Tip:
REPURPOSING YOUR CONTENT
I shared with you in the last Repurposing Content article about beginning each working session with the creation of an article, then taking that article and turning it into several pieces of content. In this article I want to offer another time management idea.
You can accomplish the same batch of production by the end of the week, however, you go about it a little different. This way works best for me.
Rather than create a new article each working session, then go about repurposing it into the video, Squidoo Lens, Hub Page, Blog post, etc all the same day, I take one day and do all the same type of work. For example:
Mondays: Write 5 articles and submit to 3 article directories
Tuesdays: Using the content from the articles, create 5 videos. Edit them and upload them to your video hosting sites.
Wednesdays: Using the content from the articles, create 5 Squidoo Lens.
Thursdays: Using the content from the articles, create 5 Hub pages.
Fridays: Using the content from the articles, Make 5-10 blog posts. You schedule their release at different times throughout the upcoming week. Bookmark your posts.
Throughout the week, Twitter your list and send them to your various pieces of content. You’ll have 5 opportunities to share your content with your Twitter list.
Also, don’t forget to send a broadcast to your email list and invite them to see as well.
If your time doesn’t allow you 2-3 hours a day, scale the work down to 3 articles rather than 5 and go with those. Even 2 is better than nothing. Your goal should be to get as much content out to the web as often as possible to keep it fresh, to keep your links building and to allow your customers and prospects to see that you are present in your business.
I work best this way because I create better, I get my mojo going on, I get in a thought process, a rythmn, and it’s quicker for me, to do bulk of the same type of content in one sitting. For those of you who have ADD or get bored quickly, the process explained in my previous article may suite you better.
Regardless, enjoy your work and always ask, “How can I best serve others with this content?”
