13 Ways to Repurpose Your Content

Happy Saturday,

I’ll be honest with you. Even though I work in marketing, I think content creation can be exhausting, especially if you wear multiple hats in your business. It requires you to stay up to date with trends, innovate quality content, and make sure it’s grabbing attention. This can be a lot to manage when you also have client work, finances, and sales pipelines to manage.

It’s common for a solopreneur to spend around 20 hours a month on their content creation efforts…

Think about that, if you bill your clients at $50hr and you’re spending 20 hrs a month on making content, that’s $1,000 you’re losing out on….MONTHLY!

What if instead of 20 hours a month, it only took you 4 hours?

It’s possible.

Introducing, content repurposing.

The same way a master chef can transform last night's roasted chicken into today's gourmet chicken salad, you can give your existing content new life through repurposing, without sacrificing flavor!

What's Content Repurposing?

Content repurposing is the art of taking your existing content and transforming it into new formats or for different platforms. It's about maximizing the value of every piece of content you create.

Why It Matters

  1. Saves Time: Create once, use multiple times.

  2. Ensures Consistency: Your core message stays the same across different formats.

  3. Improves Reach: Different formats appeal to different audience preferences.

  4. Reinforces Your Message: Repetition in various forms helps your ideas stick.

Addressing Common Concerns

Worried about reusing content? Here's why you shouldn't be:

  • Not everyone has seen it: Your audience doesn't consume all your content. Repurposing helps more people discover your best ideas.

  • You can add fresh perspectives: Update with new insights, examples, or data to keep it relevant.

  • Different formats offer new value: Even if someone's read your blog, they might gain new insights from seeing the same information as an infographic or video.

Real Results, Real Impact (How I Repurpose)

One of my clients, a leadership coach, repurposed a one in-depth blog post into:

  • A series of 8 LinkedIn posts

  • 2 short YouTube videos

  • An infographic

  • A downloadable checklist

She spends 2-4 hours a month writing two in-depth, non-AI written articles, and then uses A.I. to break each article into the shorter formats mentioned above. This allows her to communicate her original voice and perspective in a more productive way.

Your Repurposing Challenge

Ready to give it a try? Here's your challenge:

  1. Choose your best-performing piece of content from the last 6 months.

  2. Pick one idea from the list above.

  3. Repurpose that content this week.

Scaling Your Impact

For coaches and consultants aiming to scale, content repurposing is your secret weapon. It allows you to:

  • Maintain a consistent presence across multiple platforms

  • Reach a wider audience without dramatically increasing your workload

  • Establish yourself as an authority by reinforcing your key messages

  • Create a content ecosystem that nurtures leads at every stage of their journey

Remember, scaling isn't about creating more - it's about creating smarter.

Wrapping Up

Content repurposing isn't just a time-saving hack; it's a strategic approach to content marketing that can dramatically amplify your reach and impact. It challenges you to think creatively about your existing content, educates your audience in diverse ways, and helps you maintain a consistent presence without burning out.

So, are you ready to give your content a second life? Your future self (and your schedule) will thank you!
