CAPTION


When you start creating content it can be exciting But if you're not careful you can

fall back when the initial excitement wears off which it tends to do What do you do to

keep the excitement going and keep your motivation high What happens if the excitement wears off and

you find yourself stuck in this video we will discuss the creator motivation cycle and how to

keep your content flowing When the reality checkpoint starts to set in before that I recommend you sign up

for the part time digital business newsletter This is the sponsor of this episode as well This newsletter

it is free for you to join If you are looking to build your digital business create better

content set up better systems for your brand for your business I recommend you join this newsletter

I publish this every Saturday at 9 a.m. This comes directly to your inbox and will really

help guide you and help keep you on the track You're looking to go so you can have that

success that much faster What is the initial excitement phase The first few weeks or months as a

new creator It can be exciting and frustrating You have a lot of ideas you are too busy to really

think about much other than creating And you're sort of riding that producing wave at a

very high level This is the time you want to form a more solid foundational routine for

yourself I outline a step by step routine for content production in the part time

creator course you can find links in the description for that as a new creator The biggest thing I struggled

with was understanding the importance of setting my weekly routine by setting a routine You are not just being consistent

but you are giving yourself no way out If you don't feel like creating anything

or if it starts to become tough because life gets in the way which it tends to do

you can fall back on this routine keep your business going Most people I work with tell me

they almost quit or they did quit because they were not prepared for the reality check phase This is when

things maybe start to get boring that excitement wears off My content creation routine was completed at first

But over time this routine may have shifted And if you don't understand how to simplify

this how to make this easy to get yourself back on track So you never miss

your weeks or your months or your days of content creation it's very important You should start by carving

out one hour at least three times a week of focused new content time in this

hour you should set a goal of creating x amount of content Here's a good example between 6

to 7 a.m. Monday Wednesday and Friday I am going to create five short form videos one article

and one newsletter I'm going to do this every week week after week You can then

predict numbers and results for your monthly quarterly and yearly This is how you scale This is how you

can build your business long term while keeping your content locked into that creator flow So make sure

to follow make sure to comment down below Let me know what you do for your creative

routine and how that works and what is the reality check phase OK The reality check phase in your content

creation This is where most unprepared people quit This is the time period after the initial excitement has

worn off and you are left sort of wondering why did I even start creating content in the first place

This is where I started to have doubts when I first started and it was enough to cause

me to quit multiple brands over and over again This could have been avoided if I would have

had the right understanding which I did not and was prepared What do you want to do here to prepare

Look 90 days in advance think that in 90 days the adrenaline may wear off and

you possibly will start to get bored If you are ready for this to occur you will not

be shocked when it does have three months of content prepared and scheduled ahead of time This

really helps combat this in the content creator Course I show you the importance of this routine

and how I set up my own content system that production system So this never happens to me You

can find that link in the description but use the excitement of starting as a new

creator to get ahead and prepare for when that excitement wears off If you budget your time correctly you

can create enough content in your 1st 90 days to last you in another 90 days you're preplanned and you're

scheduled So you do not need to worry about it When you start to get stagnant as a creator you

can fall back on this content while brainstorming and coming up with new ways to make your message fresh

instead of allowing doubt to come in sort of take over and possibly quit altogether You are prepared

to see these phases through comment down below Let me know what your content routine is and how that is

working and going for you Now let's talk about the sustainable growth phase of this process This is

where your creativity could be nurtured as a new creator You will go through the initial excitement phase 1st 90

days Then the reality check phase doubts may start to come in may start to question your

message If you get through that you will hit the sustainable growth phase The trick to this phase

is to prepare your content and preplan while you are in the excitement phase like

we've discussed once you hit the growth phase you wanna focus on two main things Number one is

your content calendar should always be at least two months ahead in your content planning And then number two get

good at analytics Simply use analytics to understand and measure your impressions your follows and your own link

tracking This can be done on things like sales on your subscribers on your products

I use analytics to measure past results but mostly I use them to give myself motivation I

can see what is working I can see what is not working I can see

where people are joining when they're joining and how my product sales are going and what is actually producing

results and what is not We all go through these phases So it makes sense to learn how

to go through them well and learn from each phase Use the initial excitement to set your foundation

and your content routine When the reality check phase sets in you will be prepared to squash any doubt and

come out that much stronger that much faster than most people are able to do Hitting the sustainable growth

phase is not all smooth sailing but you've made it through the rocky times where a big

majority of people end up quitting and now you have a solid plan being worked with months

of cushion in place if you need it if you are looking to build a content production system for yourself

if you would like to do this in a structured format I recommend you check the channel
