How to implement a content repurposing strategy

For Conscious Businesses and Spiritual Course Creators

Content repurposing could be the key in your content marketing strategy that you are missing. In the world of spiritual teaching, content is not just information; it’s a way to spread wisdom, connect deeply with your audience, and inspire transformation. As a spiritual teacher in 2024, diving into the digital world with online courses, podcasts, and YouTube channels, you have a treasure trove of content at your fingertips that you can leverage across different platforms multiple times. 

Repurposing content can amplify your message and maximize your impact while saving you time and energy. Here are our best tips on how you can creatively and effectively reuse your content to reach and engage more souls.

1. Turn Your Online Courses into Podcast Episodes

Your online courses, masterclasses and workshops are packed with valuable insights and teachings. Why not extend their reach by converting them into podcast episodes? Extract key lessons or topics from your courses and create a series of podcast episodes. This not only makes your content accessible to those who prefer audio formats but also directs listeners to your full courses by giving them a taste of your teaching style and insights that you have on offer.

2. Create YouTube Videos from Podcast Discussions (or Vice Versa)

Podcasts often have moments of profound discussion or insightful interviews. These can be visually brought to life through YouTube videos. Create video content that complements your podcast episodes, whether it’s a recording of the podcast itself, a summary video, or an animated explanation of key points discussed.

Conversely, you can extract the audio from a YouTube video and publish it as a podcast episode. YouTube even has integrated a podcast section into YouTube channels and platforms like Podcaster for Spotify have never made it easier (or cheaper) to distribute podcast episodes.

3. Create blog posts from YouTube videos and/or podcast episodes

A 20-minute video that delivers content is perfect for creating a blog post, without having to come up with new content!

Simply create a transcript of the video and rewrite it into an optimised blog format (think short paragraphs, headlines and SEO optimisation – I recommend using the Yoast SEO plugin if you use WordPress). This blog post can then be distributed on Pinterest to create even more reach with just one piece of content.

4. Social Media Snippets: Create a series of Social Media posts from the blog post & YouTube video

Use the blog post to create captions and graphics for your Facebook and Instagram. The main points of the article could be turned into a carousel, you can take out key quotes or just use various paragraphs as inspiration for captions.

When it comes to YouTube videos, you can edit out short clips where you share some really incredible one-liners or the most interesting information and turn them into short-form video clips for reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts (you can also use these short clips to direct people to watch the full video or listen to your podcast!),

5. Transform Webinar Content into Mini-Courses

If you’ve hosted webinars or live sessions, you have a goldmine of content that can be repurposed into mini-courses. Edit and package these recordings, adding additional resources or workbook materials, and offer them as standalone mini-courses or exclusive content for your subscribers.

It could be as simple as creating a private playlist on YouTube or Vimeo with an email sequence or you could create an email mini-course, where new videos, audio files or other content are drip-fed over a certain number of days. 

This is a great idea for a free lead magnet to draw potential clients into your field.

6. Repurpose Course Material into Blog Posts

Take the rich content from your online courses and distil it into blog posts. Each module or chapter can be a detailed post, offering a sneak peek into your course content and providing valuable information to your readers, thereby attracting potential new students.

7. Convert Q&A Sessions into Informative Guides

Q&A sessions in your webinars, courses, or podcasts are often filled with valuable insights. Compile these questions and your answers into informative guides or FAQs on your website. This not only serves as a resource for your audience but also helps in SEO by targeting long-tail keywords.

8. Create an eBook from Your Blog Series

If you have a series of blog posts on a specific topic, consider compiling them into an eBook. This can be offered as a free resource to new subscribers or as a paid product. It’s a great way to package your existing content into a new, convenient format.

9. Cross-Promote Across Platforms

Ensure that your audience on one platform knows about your content on others. Promote your podcast episodes on your YouTube channel, mention your mini-courses in your blog posts, and use your social media to link to all your content platforms. This cross-promotion ensures your content reaches a wider audience.

10. Transforming Content into Email Marketing Gems

Email marketing remains a powerful tool for spiritual teachers, offering a direct and personal line of communication with your audience. Take the essence of your courses, podcasts, and videos, and distill them into captivating email newsletters. Whether it’s a weekly inspiration, a summary of your latest podcast episode or blog post, or exclusive insights from your courses, these emails can deepen the connection with your subscribers. Incorporate segments of your content that provide immediate value, such as meditation tips or mindfulness exercises, or links to relevant YouTube videos or podcasts, making your emails a highly anticipated part of your followers’ routine.

11. Leveraging the Power of Reposting

In the vast ocean of online content, it’s essential to remember that not all your followers see your posts the first time. Furthermore, people often don’t remember what you’ve posted in the past (what did you eat for lunch yesterday?). This is where reposting becomes a strategic move. Analyze your past content to identify what has resonated most with your audience. Reposting your best-performing blogs, videos, or social media posts not only gives them a second chance to reach more people but also reinforces your key messages (most of us need to hear something multiple times before it really sinks in). Regularly revisit and reshare your timeless content, ensuring it continues to enlighten and inspire new and existing followers alike.

In the conscious business space, where every piece of content carries depth and value, repurposing is not just a strategy; it’s a service to your community. By creatively reusing your content across different platforms, you not only maximize your digital presence but also ensure that your teachings reach and benefit a larger audience. Remember, in the journey of spreading spiritual wisdom, every bit of shared knowledge counts.
