How do you compete with people like this? Well, in this video, I'm gonna show you how to always be creating great content and we're starting right now.

Have you been having a hard time really coming up with great content? Put in the comment section below what kind of content you've been creating. What did you find that worked and what did you find that didn't work? I wanna hear your comments. Now, if you're new to my channel also, on this channel, all we do is talk about starting, running, and growing online businesses. Now, I've been selling online since 2009 and I've sold millions of dollars of both physical and digital products. And on this channel, all I do is I share with you the things that work. Heck, my products are sold on thousands of websites including Walmart. Now, let's jump into this content thing. Also, I'm giving away a free $97 e-commerce course. You can grab it below. All you gotta do is click and learn. It's simple and easy. There's no secret that some people, they're masters at this. I mean, they can create so much content it seems like it's 24 seven. Now, I'm not a master at it and I'm getting better at it but I get better at it by doing a few changes in what I was doing in the past and that's what I wanna share with you in this video. The one thing I'll tell you is you wanna try to leverage your content and use it in different areas. The first thing I would tell you is be opportunistic. There is actually ideas for content all around you. I can't count how many times something would happen to me in a store or I would see a sign in a window or be having lunch somewhere and it inspired some type of content that I knew I could do a video on. So, understand that these ideas are all around you. You don't have to sit down and force them. What you wanna do is be on the lookout for them throughout the day. Now, I used to start with this deadline thing where I had to create a certain amount of content by a certain time and I would sit down before that deadline and try to come up with ideas. That was the wrong thing to do. If I'm more opportunistic and if I look throughout my day, throughout my life, whether I'm at the gym, whether I'm at a restaurant or a store and I'm always looking for ideas, I come across a lot of ideas I really don't have to sit down and come up with a lot of stuff. Always have time for your ideas. You know, like I said, if you just sit down and try to come up with a bunch of ideas that's pretty difficult to do because you're not really that inspired. Think of things that happened to you during the day, whether it's an interaction with the cashier, whether it's a news story you saw, whether it's an interaction with a family member or even your dog, okay, there can be inspiring moments all throughout your day. Think of things that got a reaction out of you and if it got a reaction out of you, it's probably good content to share on your channels and your blogs and your videos because you're gonna get a reaction from somebody else too. Now, once you jot down some of these ideas, don't try to write your blog right then. Don't try to write your video right then, script or anything like that. What you wanna do is just get the main idea down, something that's gonna remind you of what happened and then you wanna kinda mold it into your video or your blog. You wanna take all those ideas you've written down during the week and sit down at a particular time and take all those ideas and try to come up with headlines and scripts that are gonna fit those ideas that happen. Usually telling a story works better than anything else. I know stories are something that we use in sales, we use in entertainment, it's done in movies, so if you can tell whatever it is you have to say in story form, it's gonna get a lot better reaction. Now, there's all kinds of ways of saving your ideas. You could bring a notebook with you. Some people like to write out their ideas. I'm not a writer as far as with a pen and pencil. I don't like to do that. I would much rather type something in or talk it into my phone. I have a note section in my phone and I'll just pull that up and I'll say whatever that idea is and then I can go back to those notes at a later date and I have something to work with. Now, I have a list of about a hundred of them on my phone right now. So what I'll do is I'll make a list of all these ideas that I have and things that are going on and then I'll take that particular title and I'll put it into TubeBuddy. TubeBuddy will take it and help me make it more SEO friendly. That way I can get a better response on my video by having a title that people are searching for but it all started with my base idea. Now, I don't recommend you trying to type or write when you're driving but I've had a lot of moments in the car really where I would see something or something would happen and I thought, boy, that would make a great video. So what you can do is just use the record area of your phone and all phones are different. I won't tell you how to record on your phone and just record that idea so that you can hear it later on and then you can turn it into a video or a blog or whatever you wanna do. Make sure you mind your words and what I mean by that is go back to these ideas and come up with the title, come up with the script, come up with whatever you wanna talk about. Don't put all these down and never go back to them. I see people do that all the time where they'll get all these ideas together but they never do anything with them. Another great area where you can find super good ideas, you probably already had them, you put them in emails. Go through all your sent folder emails and look at some of the emails you've sent out. If you do broadcast in your email provider, go back and look at some of those emails you've sent out. They're probably interesting because they got clicks and they got people to buy stuff from you. Go back and grab some of those. Don't be afraid to talk about the same subject more than once. I do this all the time and everybody's gonna have to at some point, you're gonna have to rehash and do a video when something you've already done a video on before or a blog that you've already done a blog before. Now you can take and update it if you want or you can do an entirely new one. What I would suggest you doing is taking the videos on YouTube, sorting them by views, figuring out which one's got the most views and do another video similar to that. Next thing you can do is you can go through Facebook, Google, Twitter, all that and see which subject's got a lot of interaction. If a subject got a lot of interaction, if a lot of people were involved in it and a lot of people liked it or shared it or commented on it, it's probably a good subject for you. Take that particular subject, run over to TubeBuddy. And by the way, TubeBuddy is free. If you click on this link down here, you can get TubeBuddy for free and they have a paid version. If you use my link, you can get 30% off, which is a great savings. But take it to something like TubeBuddy and TubeBuddy will show you how you can actually change that title to where it's really SEO friendly and you'll get more clicks on it. But just looking through social media and Twitter and all these accounts where people get a lot of reaction to something should give you a great idea for something that you can use. The next thing I'll tell you to do is look at offline type stuff too. People forget about this nowadays. We're online so much, but grab a newspaper. There's some probably interesting headlines there. Grab a magazine. Look at the front of some of the magazines in the grocery store. You're gonna see all kinds of headlines that really do get reactions. They research these headlines. They work on these. They know they're gonna work. And if you take similar headlines, it'll work for you too. Why try to reinvent the wheel with experts out there and advertising have already done it? Next thing I'll tell you is helping others can help you too. I can't count how many times I went a little bit out of my way and helped somebody out. And maybe they never even bought anything from me, but I looked at their sales page or I answered some questions for them. And when I did this, it gave me a story because I could talk about that person, the issue they were having and how we got that problem resolved. And that makes for really good content because it's real. You can actually refer back to something and you'll find that you'll be more descriptive and more excited when you're talking about something that really happened as opposed to something that you just came up with in your mind. Next place you can look is at instant messages. If you're IMing different people and talking about subjects or somebody sent you a message, go back through your instant messages and see what you talked about. That can give you a lot of great ideas for doing new videos and blogs. Jump on news. What do I mean by that? Whatever's in the news will really be something that people are searching for. So you could go to Google Trends, you can go to your news feed. I know the other day I had an idea to do a video about Tesla and I put together a title about Tesla trucks and I put it into TubeBuddy. Now TubeBuddy ranks these things from one to 100 being the best title you could ever have. This title I did got a 94. I've never had a title like that. I didn't realize how popular it was that Tesla truck that came out. So I did a video on it. Number 10 keyword analysis. Now you could do this easily by using Google AdWords keyword tool. And what you do is you just kind of come up with some ideas, put all those ideas in there and then what Google will do is it'll give you suggestions based on what people are looking for. Then you can actually sort it by searches. In other words, if it's getting a lot of searches put that at the top and that will give you some great ideas for doing content, whether it be videos, articles, blogs, whatever you're doing. Number 11, look at your competitors. If your competitors have already done an article, if they've already done a video on a particular subject and it gets a lot of likes and shares and comments you'll probably want to do one on that too. The work's already been done. You can actually go to some of your competitors' channels on Facebook or on YouTube. I like going to YouTube and I'll take all their videos and I'll click on the video tab and then I'll sort them by most viewed or most popular and that will tell me the ones that got the most views and that also gives me ideas for videos that I can do. Number 12, look at your mistakes and others too. Doing an article or a video on a mistake that you made and how somebody else can avoid it, it is a great headline and it's also good for other people because they're like, gee, I don't want to make that mistake too. So make mistake articles and make mistake videos. Really helpful and they get a lot of attention. Next thing I'm going to say is revisit your notes. Once you've done all this and you've come up with all these ideas, go back through it again. You'll be surprised how many times when you look at something you've done, if it's like 10 articles or 10 videos or whatever, and you look back through them again, it will spur another idea for another video or another article. The next thing I'm going to tell you is look at old articles. So what I'm saying here is find an article or find a video that is about a subject that is outdated and then take that particular subject and update it to today's information and make a video or article about that. You can do that with your own videos. You can do that with a competitor's videos or articles. The next thing is presentations make good content. If you've done a presentation somewhere, if you've done a coaching call somewhere, if you spoke on stage somewhere, that makes great content for all your platforms. Next up, questions make great content. When people ask you questions and you're answering these questions on a daily basis, this makes for some great content. It's twofold really. You've answered the person's question, but it also tells you that other people probably have the same problem. A great example of that is WP Beginner. Now that particular site was started because the individual who started that particular site was answering people's questions about WordPress. And as he answered more and more of these questions about WordPress, he realized that he had a great training platform. He put it all together and it's in WPBeginner.com now and you can go there and learn pretty much anything about WordPress. Next up, repurposing your content. Don't forget to do this. Now I do some longer videos, 10, 12 minute videos, but I have an editor that will take maybe 15 to 30 seconds of that video and make a little short video about the main point that I was talking about in the big video. This can make for a lot of content. If you think about it, you take one 10 minute video and you make a bunch of 15, 30 second videos out of that. Look how you multiply your content. The next thing that makes for great content is statistics. When a statistic comes out about how much money people are making at home from stay at home businesses or something about the economy that unemployment rates have gone down or what the stock market's done and the percentages it's gone up. The good thing about this type of content is it has believability because it has a statistic attached to it. And when people hear statistics, they tend to believe it a whole lot more. Next up is when you see an article that could be better or you see a video that could be better if they had done something, why not do it, okay? If you see a bad video and you say to yourself, well, that person should have said this and they should have said this and the lighting should have been that, then take that idea and actually use it for yourself. Same thing with an article. Next up and the last one is uncomplicate whatever the subject is. If you can make something simple and easier for somebody to do, that sells really well. An example would be 10 recipes with only four ingredients. People can relate to that. They don't wanna have a lot of ingredients in all of their recipes. So think of it that way. How can you make this particular subject, this particular thing easier and simpler to do? And that's a great selling point for your video or article. So there you have it. There's some great ideas to do videos and articles and blogs and it'll keep you going and you'll always have a subject to talk about. Now, which one of these do you think is gonna work best for you?
