We talked about Strategy, we talked about Automation, but now it is up to you. What are you doing to Execute on your Strategy?
Are you spreading yourself too thin, doing great across the board, or firing on all cylinders? Let’s talk!
Why is it important to Execute Content Creation skillfully?
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve failed to be consistent, or to even just get content out at all. It happens to all of us creators at some point. Over time with practice, then we get better at doing the act of making content.
It becomes easier to actually make a video or post, but without that practice it can take a lot of effort still. If your content takes more effort to make in the first place, then this can be even worse.
Sometimes it is better to just decrease the effort, such as with editing, if it means you actually put the video out. Your editing skills will still get better over time, and you can do a lot with AI too.
Other times batching can be of great help, such as what I’ve done with this series. I wanted to be consistent for the rest of the year so I batched things out. Then I can focus on events, or experimental content. In the end you just don’t want to burn out, and that is very important to actively avoid.
How to go about doing it sustainably!
It comes about with practice. I talked about doing 100 reps, and you really don’t know what you did right or wrong until after that point. Even then you don’t really get “good” until around 300 reps.
Mind you this is my view, and what I’ve seen from creators. I should also note that I think there is a point in between 100-300 where creators get good. That point is different for every person.
Not to mention your rep count resets anytime you switch too. Whether it is video, audio, LIVE, written, short, or long, content. They all have their own skill level that grow on their own.
Now the skill of getting comfortable on camera, or hearing your own voice, those are things that if you do one content type. Then it might be easier to do the other ones. If you’re used to livestreaming, then in a lot of cases you’ll be fine doing video. Although not everyone, as recorded video can be somewhat intimate for some creators.
You want to find a frequency of your main content type that you can do each week, and then continue it for a long time.
Maybe adding in extra posts here and there when it feels right, maybe experimenting with other types along the way. However make sure your main thing is continuously going.
🥡 Takeaways
Regardless of which speed track you choose, things are bound to come up. Can you keep up with your planned strategy when roadblocks get in your way?
Are you able to achieve the goals you set out for yourself?
These are the questions you need to ask yourself to see if you’re going to able to execute well enough to succeed!
