Usually, we content creators are great at what we do but not so good at other things, such as creating and sticking to a strategy..
En este post te hablo de la estrategia para creadores de contenido, y para ello recupero el contenido de una Mumbler newsletter to share with you what my content strategy would be if I were starting to create content in a specific niche right now.
The result was a list of steps that I’m sharing below:
Los 10 paso de una estrategia para creadores de contenido
1. Define your concept and align it with your personal brand
- Choose a core topic on which to build your content. Examples: habits (James Clear), e-commerce (Jaime Mesa), newsletters (Chus Naharro), stoicism (Pepe García), podcasting (Emilio Cano).
- Segment your audience through this unique concept, make it an integral part of your personal brand.
2. Choose a distribution platform
- Is crucial focus on one platform (text or image) instead of trying to cover them all:
- Text: Twitter (X), LinkedIn, Threads.
- Image: TikTok, YouTube, Reels.
- Do experiments with cross-posting.while always maintaining the same format across all platforms.
3. Align your digital footprint with your concept
- Optimize your profile so that it clearly reflects your concept. It should explain:
- What you talk about.
- Why it matters.
- Why people should trust you.
- Talk about your concept consistently and make sure that everything you post is aligned with it.
4. Study and consume content related to your concept
- Stay always informed. Read, watch videos, and listen to content in your niche to stay updated on trends and news.
- Follow the leading accounts in your industry and turn on notifications to quickly engage with their posts.
5. Create a free email course
- Email courses are powerful tools for capturing leads, building relationships with your readers, and establishing yourself as an authority in your niche.
- Guide your followers to this course and include a call to action in every post.
6. Launch a newsletter
- Start to write consistently for your audience, sharing what you're learning along the way.
- Save time for your readers by summarizing relevant and valuable information.
- Through the course, newsletter, and social media posts, subscribers will see you as a subject matter expert.
7. Offer 1:1 consulting
- Start with 50$/hour and gradually increase the price as demand grows.
- Include a book link ... in your email signature.
8. Collaborate with other newsletters and start monetizing
- Do cross-promotion with similar newsletters to reach new audiences.
- Once you have 5,000 subscribers, you can begin offering advertising at $30 per CPM (1,000 subscribers).
9. Create a digital product aligned with your concept
- Through the consultations and emails,you will identify recurring problems in your audience.
- Create a digital product that addresses those issues, aligned with your concept. You will generate income and strengthen your brand.
10. Iterate and improve constantly
- Stay on course and continue iterating on your strategy.
- Ignore distractions disguised as opportunities, and focus on improving what you are already doing.
