You know having a blog on your business website is important. You also know that social media is a great tool for getting that content seen.
But you also know managing a blog and social media presence can be very time-consuming.
Content strategies, and content calendars, need to be developed before you start producing or paying for content. Creating a few blog posts a month alone can take 12-24 hours. Add to that, posting a couple of times a day on different social media channels and it can easily be a full-time job in itself. Or more!
Trying to create all of the content yourself usually leads to one of three things.
- You don’t publish blog content on a regular basis, or
- Other things that are important to the long-term success of your business don’t get done, or
- You’re posting content but no one is actually reading it (you’re not getting any traffic to your website, which is one of the main purposes of having a blog in the first place)
I Can Help Get 80% Of It Off Your Plate
First, you need to create a content strategy and content calendar before you start producing or paying for content. This is one of my strengths and what really gets me excited.
Whether you’re starting from scratch, or you just need an expert to help you finalize what you’ve started, I can help develop this crucial piece of content marketing.
Once you have a plan in place, you need content on a regular basis.
Your business needs two types of content to be successful:
- Approximately 80% higher-level, timeless content (aka. evergreen content) to increase engagement and draw new clients in
- Approximately 20% of the laser-targeted content that speaks directly to your current audience and makes a personal connection with them
The personal, laser-targeted blog content is usually where you shine and what brings you the most joy. The other 80% can feel like drudgery and doesn’t require you to be so hands-on.
My team and I can take care of the 80% so you can focus on what matters most to you and your business.
We can:
- Help you get clear on the goals for your blog and social media
- Provide you two-four quality, evergreen articles a month to publish on your blog as your own
- Create images and graphics to share on social media corresponding to each blog post
- Optional: Curate content from other industry-related sources for you to share so you’re not just shouting about your own stuff
- Optional: Schedule the content to your social media channels if you want to get that off your plate too
If you’re ready to free up time so you and your employees can focus on more important things, please contact me.
