Creating original content is resource-intensive. Repurposing content lets you squeeze more value from every idea by adapting it to new formats, audiences and channels. The strategies below turn one great asset into a portfolio of touchpoints—without sacrificing quality or exhausting your team.
“Why reinvent the wheel when you can simply add more wheels to the machine?– Neil Patel
You’re spending 30% of your marketing budget on content marketing – but are you seeing the ROI you want? Are you producing enough? Or are there still holes in your editorial calendar?
Get more bang for your buck – and exponentially more content – by repurposing.
You Need a Lot of Content to Make Waves
Hubspot’s review of more than 13,500 companies found that those that “published 16+ blog posts per month got almost 3.5x more traffic” than companies that published 4 or less posts. The same review also pinpointed a direct correlation between increased content production and increased traffic. In other words: the more content you have, the more traffic you get.
Not that quantity is everything. Quality is equally important, and sacrificing quality in the name of quantity won’t yield the results you’d like to see. If, however, you can steadily produce high quality content, your audience (and Google) will view you as a valuable resource.
So how can you do it? By repurposing. We’re all looking for ways to save time and money, and repurposing content does both for you: it’s the simplest way to create more quality content with less data, manpower, or other resources.
