Escape the Content Hamster Wheel - Part 4, Crock Pot Marketing
📅30 days of content in 90 minutes
Work smarter on your social media posts, not harder. Your future self will thank you.
I have a confession... I love crock pots🍲
You throw everything in, walk away, and come back later to find dinner magically waiting for you.
Marketing should work a lot more like that.
Too many musicians and authors wake up every day asking, "Ugh, I need to post today. What should it be?" That's like making Thanksgiving dinner from scratch every single night. No wonder you’re exhausted.
Instead, try batching your content. Set aside 90 minutes.
Spend 20 minutes brainstorming ideas or locating your existing media
Spend 40 minutes creating posts.
Spend 20 minutes scheduling them.
Spend 10 minutes rewarding yourself with coffee, chocolate, or a nap☕
Suddenly, you've got weeks of content ready to go! The best part? Your audience has no idea. To them, it looks like you're showing up consistently and effortlesslyyyyy😎
Meanwhile, you're spending more time writing songs, finishing chapters, booking shows, or doing literally anything else.
Most creators know they should batch content, and think, "Great idea!" Then life gets busy, and they're right back to scrambling for tomorrow's post. The trick isn't knowing you should batch. It's building a flow you'll actually stick with. If you'd like some help creating a simple system that's tailored to the way you work, let's book a Success Session and build a system that keeps running even when life gets chaotic.
Stop cooking content one post at a time. Be the crock pot😆

PS: 🐹 In the next installment of Escape the Content Hamster Wheel, I'll show you how to avoid making a mess of your content.
PPS: On a side note, many artists have a big, underlying problem: your posting platform stinks! I was never fully happy with expensive platforms like Hootsuite, Later and Post Planner so I decided to build my own - the platform of my dreams! Now I’m offering it to my music colleagues and clients who also feel the pain of paying WAY too much for time-saving tools that don’t stink. Let me know if you want details by hitting Reply..
