My Content Repurposing Story 😊
When I first started marketing my “Learn English with Songs” program, I remember being really excited about coming up with a new theme each week and creating content around it.
But after a while, it became kind of a chore and it was taking sooo much time …
Even though I was being more efficient by batching a lot of content at once, I was still spending hours doing photo shoots, creating videos, writing blogs and captions around the theme.
Then I learned about REPURPOSING and it was a HUGE revelation to me!
I could take one piece of content, and tweak it a little to create other pieces of content!
✨ And you don’t need to start from scratch every time either! ✨
Instead, you can repurpose and repackage your existing content to reach more people with waaaaaay less effort!
(And, it actually helps to keep your message even more clear and consistent - which building more trust, authority and all that good stuff! 🤩)
So let’s break down how adjusting length, platform, and format can transform one piece of content into a full-fledged marketing strategy - in a fraction of the time!
4 Ways to Get More Out of Every Piece of Content 💪
Here are 4 ways to repurpose content efficiently:
Adjust the Length
Break down long-form content (podcasts, blog posts, webinars) into bite-sized pieces, or expand short posts into deeper insights.Adapt for Different Platforms
A message that works on one platform may need slight tweaks in tone for other platforms (For example Instagram vs. LinkedIn, YouTube, or your email list.)Change the Format
Transform written content into audio, video, or visual formats to reach a wider audience.Use AI to Streamline the Process
Tools like AI-powered transcription, summarization, and graphic creation can automate and simplify content repurposing.
Ok, so, let’s apply these principles in action with a real-life example that you can try too!
Repurposing ONE Podcast Episode into a MONTH’s Worth of Content 🤩
Let’s say you’ve recorded a podcast episode packed with valuable insights. Woo hoo! (You’re so awesome by the way! ✨)
Instead of just posting it and sharing it in a few places, here’s how you can turn it into a month’s worth of content that keep working for you:
Full-Length Video 🎥
Upload the entire podcast episode as a video with subtitles and branding onto your website and YouTube
Full-Length Audio 🎤
Create an audio only wave file for your website and Podcast platforms
Short Video Clips 🎬
Identify 2–3 key moments from the episode and create short clips
These can be used as Reels or Shorts
Add text overlays and captions for muted viewers
4. Blog Post (Website, LinkedIn, Blog Platforms) ✍️
Transcribe the podcast and summarize key takeaways into a blog post to be used on Website, LinkedIn, or other longer format Platforms
Optimize for SEO with headings, bullet points, and a call-to-action.
5. Social Media Quotes 🗣️
Pull powerful one-liners from the episode and turn them into quotes or quote graphics on shorter form platforms (like Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter)
Pair with a relevant photo or branded background for more visual impact.
6. Behind-the-Scenes Photos (Instagram Stories, Facebook Posts) 📸
Snap photos of your podcast setup or behind-the-scenes moments to add a personal touch.
Share these to create deeper audience connection.
So there you have it!
✨Even if you don’t start with a full video podcast episode, you can still apply these repurposing principles and save a TON of time and effort! ✨🤗
Save Time with Repurposing!
So remember, you don’t need more content, you can do more with the content you already have.
Instead of constantly brainstorming new ideas, maximize what you’ve already created by adjusting length, platform, and format (and let AI tools help you out, if you’re into that!)
