11.5 Create a Content Strategy that Offers Solutions to Readers’ Problems (And Works for You Too)

I met an author who was in the thick of churn. Y’all, she was cranking out content like a machine. But she was tired and I was tired hearing about all the movement she was doing… but getting little traction. 

Through a series of “why” questions… I got to the root as to why she was doing all of it… and it was because she thought she was supposed to. It was that simple. Maybe you think you are suppose to too (and, secret, you may be). 

➟ But content without purpose is pointless. 
➟ And content that drains you will leave you with little room to water others. 

Today, I want to share a smarter not harder content strategy way. I’m excited to walk you through how to create a content strategy that will check off the needs of your author and authorpreneur efforts but not leave you with little left on the other side. 

Marketing should emPower you, not be the bane of your existence. (I see you, author... and I know that you likely despise the word and all that comes with it!)
