Creator Club | Social Media Marketing & Content Creation

Here's the honest truth: if you want to grow your online presence, on any social media platform, the hardest part is going to be creating enough content to get noticed, and doing it on a consistent basis. Over the years of working in social media marketing, chatting with clients or folks that I've done coaching with, the trend that seems to be present among pretty much much every creator or online entrepreneur is that they'd like to grow their following online quickly, but they don't have a lot of time to invest in content creation. And this is the ultimate problem, because you need to publish a lot of content over a long period of time to grow, and it takes a lot of time to create content - or does it? Okay, yes, it does take time to make good content, but there are some strategies and processes that you can use to make everything more efficient. And that's exactly what we're going to do a deep dive into in this episode.

Buckle your seatbelts, everyone, it’s the podcast you have all been waiting for - today I will be sharing my Instagram Strategy for 2022! I am laying it all out there. We will be chatting about the algorithm, post formats, mental health, and ... we will be chatting about both my personal brand and my business, Creatorly Media. Two totally different strategies, exposed! Let’s do this!

In the current digital marketing landscape, there are a million and one ways that you can choose to promote your business online. Between all the big social media platforms, to content like YouTube, or blogs, it can honestly feel like a "choose your own adventure" book that has no clear ending. My team and I have worked with dozens of small business owners that are uncertain about how to approach content marketing, where they should start, and which platforms they should focus their time one - especially when you have limited time to invest in online marketing. In this episode, I want to share one approach to digital marketing that I think will help save you time, allow you to grow, network, make sales, and establish yourself as an expert in your field - all by using one platform, and that is: starting a podcast.

Keep on listening to hear my step-by-step strategy for using a podcast as the backbone of your content marketing strategy. And in case you're already feeling intimiated: don't worry, we're going to talk about how you can do this as a total beginner that doesn't know anything about audio editing, microphones, or RSS feeds. Let's get into it!

Okay - let’s be real, YouTube never feels easier - but, each and every subscriber will be easier to get than your first 1000.

Why are these early stages so difficult for growth? It’s because YouTube doesn’t know anything about you or your content yet. In the beginning, it’s like making your very first impression with someone; you don’t know each other yet, your background, your personality, or your expertise - all of that stuff you still need to share, and prove. You’ve gotta built trust.

Once you built that “trust” with the algorithm, it will start to recommend your videos more and more, which will help to grow your audience.

So today’s podcast, I really want to share with you five steps that will help you reach your first 1000 subscribers the right way, building trust with the platform (and your viewers) in a way that will help you grow more in the long term.

A couple of weeks ago I asked my Instagram community what topics would be helpful to them for me to share on my podcast and a few of you asked about how to script a travel video. Scripting a travel video might seem complex - because how do you script something that isn’t a sit-down, educational video, filmed in the comfort of your own home? That’s what I want to walk you through today.
