Do you need help & advice with Productivity Tech?
Ever wondered how some people manage to churn out so much video content while also running a business? It might seem like magic, but it’s really just about having a solid plan and a good process in place. This approach helps me stay consistent and focused, cutting down on daily stress.
Key Takeaways
- Batch Recording: Film multiple videos in one go.
- Editor Support: Delegate post-production tasks.
- AI for Audience Focus: Use AI to identify topics that truly connect with your target audience.
- Content Cadence: Develop a repeatable workflow for planning and publishing.
- Revisit and Refine: Update older content to maintain quality and relevance.
Planning Your Content Like a Pro
Most people think I must have loads of free time to make all these videos. The truth is, it’s all about how I structure my week. Every single week, I sit down and make a list of all the video ideas I want to tackle. I keep this list handy on my phone, so it’s always with me.
Then, instead of filming one video here and there, I batch record them. This means I set aside a chunk of time and film several videos back-to-back. Sometimes, I might film an extra one if an idea pops up, like this one, but the bulk of my filming happens in these dedicated sessions.
Letting Your Editor Do the Heavy Lifting
Once I’ve got all my footage, I send it off to my video editor. They handle all the nitty-gritty stuff: writing the descriptions, creating short clips for social media, publishing the videos, and scheduling them out. This frees me up immensely, because honestly, I don’t have the time to be sitting there every single day trying to create new content. That would be completely overwhelming.
The same goes for my social media posts. I plan out everything I want to share for the week or month and then post it all at once. It’s just so much more efficient.
Using AI to Connect with Your Audience
One thing I’ve found really helpful, and I highly recommend it, is using AI. I ask AI to suggest key topics and areas that I should focus on. This makes sure I’m actually talking to the right people – my target audience.
I have a detailed description of my ideal audience member, and I feed this into the AI. So, when it’s suggesting content or even helping to draft scripts, it’s tailored for that specific person. I’m not just talking to a general crowd; I’m speaking directly to the people I want to reach. This really helps to focus down on what you’re talking about and how you’re saying it.
Refining Your Content Over Time
As I get better at making videos and the quality improves, I also make a point of revisiting older topics. Sometimes I’ll re-record them or update them with new information. This way, my content stays fresh and relevant.
So yes, I do have a real job and actual work to do! I don’t just spend my days creating videos, believe it or not. This planning and batching system is what makes it all possible.
Creating videos has been fantastic for letting people know who I am and what I do. If you’re interested in learning more about this process or how video can help your business, feel free to get in touch.
