Wining people is understanding people, means understanding what they want, how they want and appealing to them, and engaging with them.
If you see big personal brands, they focus on providing value, presenting in their own way, and always engaging with their audience in the forms of AMA sessions, Live sessions on social media, and also webinars, replying to comments
First: Value is the first thing in building a personal brand, people follow you because of value, if you are providing in others’ life people follow you.
What type and in what form you can provide value?
First will look into what type of value you can provide to people, providing value in the form of content.
There are different ways of providing valuable content through videos, podcasts, and blogs
1) Long-form Articles and videos:
Long Articles: Write in-depth detailed articles in your niche on Your Blog like 3000 to 6000 words articles
Long videos: Create Long videos where you explain a particular topic, share tips and tactics, create webinars or live in-depth lives and post it on YouTube.
45 minutes to 2 hours video come in the long video category
2) Micro/ short videos
you can provide tips, strategies, and tactics in the short form content on Instagram reels, YouTube shorts, also soon on other platforms like Twitter and LinkedIn
Micro videos are growing and have become a trend.
30 second – 1-minute videos come in a short video
3) Medium-sized articles and video
Articles with 500 to 1000 words are good for platforms like LinkedIn
Medium video duration is between 7 to 20 minutes work great on YouTube, IGTV, and Facebook Groups
3) Carousels – Carousels work best on Instagram as they create high engagement
In carousels, you can share Tools, Tips, strategies, News updates, and a lot more
Carousels content 3 – 10 pictures of content
4) Short articles with 200 words for Twitter in which you share your learning, your message, and quotes based on your experiences
You can do a lot but this look overwhelmed which is not if you do this one thing
REPURPOSE
Repurposing content is the name of GAME. Now it becomes interesting to create content like never before.
Ever heard of this term?
Most of the content creators repurpose their content on different content which saves time and effort and helps You multiply your content
First will see how you can repurpose video content.
Your 1 long video can multiply into more than 10 medium and short videos
For example, if you make 1 long video on YouTube, you can cut the video into medium and short videos which can be posted on Instagram reels and IGTV, LinkedIn, YouTube shorts, etc
Now will take a specific example: if you create a video on the top 10 tools, you can cut 10 clips from the video and post those 10 videos one by one in Instagram reels.
If you got my point type ‘yes” in the comments section
And in this format, you can do a lot of repurposing which is much needed as there are different audiences on different social media platforms.
