#187: Taking the 'Con' Out of Content Creation


Taking the 'Con' Out of Content Creation

Real talk, creating that amazing content for your podcast is no easy task.

Of course, there are some days, you just hit it out of the park. The ideas 💡 are following, you're in the creative zone, and everything comes together in an episode that your listeners love.

And you're just like....

But other times?

The whole process is just difficult. 🫣

You're out of ideas.

Your creative juices have all but dried up.

Or you simply don't have the time to create those amazing episodes.

We get it.

But we also know that consistently delivering great content is a must for your podcast’s success.

So to help you take the ‘con’ out of “content creation” we’re sharing our top 3 PRO tips to help you create that stand-out content for your podcast.

(We’ve also recently shared our Ultimate Guide to Podcast Content Creation. You can find that link below. Not all heroes wear capes. 😉)

Pro Tip #1: Batch Record Your Episodes

Are there certain times of the day when you’re just in the content creation zone? Or certain days of the week when your creative juices are just overflowing? Capitalize on this and batch record your episodes.

Having a stockpile of episodes eliminates the stress of producing content under pressure. You free up your creativity, allowing you to create that highly-valuable content your audience is after.

Pro Tip #2: Repurpose Existing Content

Another major "content creation con" is the pressure to always be creating something “new”. But great content does not require you to constantly reinvent the wheel! Not when you can repurpose all the great stuff you’ve already created!

Whether it’s top-performing blog posts, fan-favorite past episodes, or social media content that’s already resonated with your audience, repurposing these enables you to create fresh podcast episodes you already know your listeners will love!

Pro Tip #3: Create Episode Templates

Having a go-to structure for your episodes can be a game-changer as it can seriously speed up the content creation process.

Develop an episode template that includes your key sections like your intro, your main segments, and even where you place your call to action. This will streamline your planning, ensure your episodes have a clear narrative, and it will help you consistently deliver that top-notch content.

Take-Away

Consistently delivering high-quality content is no easy task. But there are most certainly ways to tip the scales in your favor.

So follow our pro tips, and let's take the 'con' out of content creation. 😉
