Join host Mike C-Roc in this captivating episode as he sits down with Abby Herman, a fractional marketing director, content strategist, and podcast manager. Abby is on a mission to help business owners gain visibility for their businesses through personalized content strategies and seamless implementation. In this episode, Mike and Abby delve into the transformative world of podcasting. Abby's expertise shines as she shares her journey from being a teacher and single mom to becoming a seasoned entrepreneur with a keen focus on content strategy. The conversation kicks off with Mike's signature question: "What are you made of?" Abby's response sets the tone for the entire episode, revealing her formidable combination of grit and stubbornness. Mike and Abby explore the idea that stubbornness, when channeled in the right direction, becomes a powerful force for achieving success. Abby takes us back to the beginnings of her entrepreneurial journey, recounting how she stumbled upon an opportunity to work with a website development company. Her persistence and refusal to accept rejection ultimately led to a nine-year tenure where she honed her skills in running an online business and marketing. As the conversation unfolds, Abby shares the pivotal moment when she transitioned from freelance content creation to content strategy. Recognizing the need for a purposeful approach, she started aligning content with clients' long-term goals, creating a more impactful and strategic content marketing plan. The episode takes an exciting turn when Abby reveals her foray into the podcasting world. Initially, she embarked on this journey to support a client interested in starting a podcast. Little did she know that this experience would ignite her passion for podcasting, leading her to launch her own successful podcast. With over 250 episodes under her belt, Abby's podcasting journey takes a brief hiatus before making a comeback in early 2024. Mike applauds her achievements, and the conversation seamlessly transitions to Abby's role in helping other business owners navigate the podcasting landscape. Abby shares valuable insights into the importance of consistency, omnipresence, and content repurposing in the podcasting realm. As Mike and Abby wrap up the episode, listeners gain a deep understanding of the power of podcasting and how strategic content creation can elevate businesses to new heights.

I love the idea of looking for things to celebrate in the everyday. So when my podcast manager told me that episode 150 of the podcast was coming up, I wanted to do something special. Rather than record a solo episode (which she knows is a big challenge for me), she suggested that someone interview me for the episode. And since she's a podcaster too, she was the perfect candidate for this! This week on the podcast, Abby Herman, podcast manager and owner of The Content Experiment, interviews me on my own podcast to talk about how my business has changed over the years, how podcasting has impacted my business, what I've learned in the last 150 episodes, and what I'd do differently if I had to start over today. Of course, we cover a whole lot more in this episode, and it was so fun to hear some of the insights that Abby has had over this last year of working together. Be sure to tune in! About Amber Hawley: Amber Hawley is a licensed therapist, multiple biz owner and former tech industry drop out who works with high-achieving, easily distracted entrepreneurs with mindset and strategies to stop suffering for success. As host of the Easily Distracted Entrepreneur podcast (yes, we're going meta here!), she supports ADHD {and ADHD-ish} business owners who live in Distraction City to overcome shiny object syndrome.

If you have an online business (or even a brick-and-mortar business you market online) you are a content marketer. Content includes blogs, podcasts, YouTube channels, email sequences, newsletters, sales pages, social media posts, and even short-form videos on TikTok, Linked In, IG, or FB. Content is everywhere and in order to leverage the know, like, and trust factor, you need to have a strategy, not just put yourself out there in a random way and hope it works. Whether you have a lot to say but it's all over the place or your mind goes completely blank the minute you sit down in front of your laptop to write an email sequence, there is hope for you. Today's guest, Abby Herman was an elementary school teacher who took her talent for writing and teaching and launched a business as a content strategist over a decade ago. She helps online entrepreneurs to create awareness, educate and inform, demonstrate their expertise, convert consumers to customers, and long-lasting relationships. She has a way of thinking about content creation that takes the guessing and stressing right out, making it more simple and sustainable than you ever dreamed of. I first learned of Abby over a year ago, when I heard her being interviewed on a podcast, but we did not connect in a meaningful way until we both joined Podwize, the membership community for podcasters run by Angie Trueblood, a couple of months ago. The day this episode is being published is the day Abby is interviewing me for her podcast, The Content Experiment. How's that for synchronicity? Here are a few of the highlights of our convo:What minimum viable content marketing looks like The health journey that led Abby to rebrand her podcast and business How her personal values show up in how much free content she shares When you don't choose, you actually lose (less really is best) What content to give away for free and what to charge for Easy ways to stay top of mind with former clients and customers Mentioned in this episode:The Podwize Co-Op with Angie Trueblood The Alcohol Experiment book by Annie Grace www.panda.doc (the CRM that Abby uses for her content ) If you'd like to connect with Abby Herman and The Content Experiment after listening to this interview:Free e-book: https://thecontentexperiment.com/get-client-journey-ebook/Podcast: https://thecontentexperiment.com/podcast-episodes/Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/AbbyMHerman/Is there a gap between where you are and where you want to be?

This episode is the second in The Boundaries Series, where we are unpacking the challenge of doing things we don't really want to be doing, and for all the wrong reasons. Warning: If you have not already heard me say this, I have fully embraced the feedback that one of my favorite clients by calling me “The Speaker of Uncomfortable Truths.” This episode reflects that. In my work with female solopreneurs, I often hear about situations my clients are involved in but wish they weren't. Sometimes, the situation involves a team member or a client, but it can also be with someone they collaborate with. The underlying issue is related to boundaries and specifically how we deal with feeling obligated, based on the principle of reciprocity. The bottom line is that each of us has limits when it comes to our capacity and if we are spending time, energy, effort, and dollars doing things out of a sense of obligation, rather than choice, we will feel strained and drained, not to mention resentful. If you are a creative or a healer, in particular, this will drag you toward burnout and possibly clinical depression. Time management is important, energy management is important, but obligation management is also necessary, so let's get to it. Here is a quick overview of what we are going to cover in today's solo episode: Why resentment is the emotion we need to pay attention to in businessThe connection between bandwidth, boundaries, and burnout Reciprocity is the exchange of mutual benefit. Learn to measure the mutual part.

If you are a creative or a healer, in particular, this will drag you toward burnout and possibly clinical depression. Time management is important, energy management is important, but obligation management is also necessary, so let's get to it. Here is a quick overview of what we are going to cover in today's solo episode: Why resentment is the emotion we need to pay attention to in businessThe connection between bandwidth, boundaries, and burnout Reciprocity is the exchange of mutual benefit.

See you next week, when Abby Herman, Content Strategist and host of The Content Experiment is going to be my guest. I first came across Abby's work over a year ago, but we did not connect until we both joined...
You're ready to plan for 2022, and that includes creating content to market your products and services. But you're so overwhelmed with #AllTheThings you're “supposed” to do. There's a huge pull to try to do it all and be everywhere. And while putting yourself out there online is important, it is possible to do it without the overwhelm…and without hiring it out. On this episode of the podcast, I'm chatting with Abby Herman of The Content Experiment about creating a minimum viable content marketing strategy. I have to warn you that we do talk about “shoulds” in your marketing because there are some things that you should really be doing if you want to get visible online. Listen closely because not one of us does this perfectly, and Abby shares one of her “oops” moments when it came to an email sequence that she had running on its own. And I share my own Twitter “oops” moment that I blame on my ADHD. Don't get overwhelmed by content this year. It's okay to find what works for you and then grow your content strategy from there. In fact, I think that's how you “should” do it! (See what I did there?)

The Know Like & Trust Show with Britney Gardner: Authentic Automated Marketing
For the very first time on the Know, Like & Trust Show, another content strategist is joining me. Abby Herman is here today to chat about the importance of listening to your audience and creating the ideal content journey from pre-client to off-boarding. Topics discussed in this episode: How Abby got started in content strategy […] The post Two Content Strategists, Same Goal appeared first on Content Strategy + Marketing Strategist Britney Gardner.
Content Creators Rejoice! Here's how to make your content go the extra mile for you. My guest is Abby Herman, CEO and Founder of The Content Experiment and host of The Content Experiment Podcast. Abby helps small business owners develop and implement content strategies that work for them. Abby is a kindred spirit, in that she doesn't believe that business owners should have to spend every waking hour creating content in order to make a living. Her motto, like mine, is more strategy, less busywork. The work you do up-front to gain clarity, get organized, and put some systems in place will pay off big when it comes to both your time and energy and your results using content. In Episode 94, I made a pretty bold recommendation to take a Summer break from creating new content. Since Abby's an expert, and I really wanted to know what she thought about that, and if she had any recommendations for how to do it strategically. Spoiler... she does!

Abby Herman shares her experience as she went from making a series of bad hires to achieving hiring success.
In today's episode, I am joined by special guest Abby Herman content and email marketing extraordinaire from The Content Experiment where we discuss content marketing but more specifically email marketing and how you can use email marketing in your veterinary practice to grow. Abby has been working with her business full time since 2016 where she has helped many people with their content marketing and email marketing. Her company helps their clients build out strategies for their content marketing around what they want to share and put out for their audiences. Veterinary practices can grow their content marketing by getting to know what their clients are actually wanting and needing by sending out surveys. Surveys can include what challenges are your clients facing at the moment, how they like to consume their content and information about pets (to know where you can reach them), and what seasonal issues could be a concern for them. Practices can figure out what clients want and need by surveys to generate content topics and posts. Using email to reach your clients on a regular basis to be sure to keep your practice at the top of their mind rather than getting lost in the inbox by only checking in once or twice a year. Treat your emails to clients as a way to add value to their lives and to keep your audience informed with helpful and useful information about pet care and how they can keep their pets healthy and safe. Be sure to go and check out and connect with Abby Herman on her podcast HERE, Facebook HERE, and website HERE Join the Veterinary Marketing Nerd Facebook group to get even more help with your veterinary practices digital marketing Be sure to listen and let me know if you have any questions, comments, or need help with anything!
One of those things that we hear a lot about is the client journey--the path people take with your brand. The truth is the client journey starts well before the initial discovery call. Your client’s journey begins the moment they’ve identified the problem that you solve. In this episode, I’m going to walk you through the client journey--what the stages are, what that content looks like, and some special considerations for the types of content you might create. And, as always, I do this with the caveat that you need to do what works for you. This episode was just a fraction of what you’ll get out of the free Client Journey ebook.

How did your 2020 shape up in regards to your business? Today I’m going to recap what 2020 looked like for my business, and I hope this gives you a glimpse of what a business can look like. I also want to model something for you that you can use in your business, called the reflection framework. Reflection Framework Take out a piece of paper, and draw a big “t” so you have 4 quadrants on your paper. Now label: Top left as “Working” Top right as “Not Working” Bottom left as “Missing” Bottom right as “Confusing” I use this simple framework all of the time. I'm going to use it today to reflect on 2020, but I have used this exact framework for masterminds that I have facilitated, performance reviews, 1-to-1’s, and team meetings. It gives you the ability to collect a lot of info and gives structure to the conversation. It also serves as a documentation piece that you can look back on year to year. What Worked? This has been an incredible year. When we started I had 4 different products I was selling. I had been feeling the urge to niche down and understand where my greatest value was. By niching down, I could give more of myself by serving 1 audience. This completely changed the trajectory of the success of The Ops Authority. I am so grateful I had mentors encouraging me and helping me see where my potential was, because what was stopping me from niching down was scarcity. If you feel like you have a knack for operations and are interested in becoming a Director of Operations (DOO), join us for our first round in our upcoming Director of Operations Certification Program in 2021. Mentorship I have spent thousands of dollars on different mentors, programs, and masterminds over the years, and this year I decided to go big with a next-level mentor. I joined the Unstoppable Entrepreneur with Kelly Roach. I joined the first weekend of March before COVID-19 hit, and I remember thinking about how our economy was shifting in a really rapid way, so I needed to put my money where my mouth was to level up. I found a program that I will be in for a very long time to come. It was a mindset shift for me, and I have been blessed for Kelly’s mentorship, her supportive team and the peers in the group. The Live Launch Model I started to use this program that Kelly teaches. I started to pay attention to what she was doing and applied it to make my content work for me. My team and I worked to create my live launch The Scope Creep Solution. It is a topic that stands the test of time, and allows me to show up as myself and teach something I’m excited about. Expanding my team I decided to expand my team by bringing in qualified expert coaches into my program, which has completely upleveled the experience that my students have. They have allowed me to see an even greater vision than I did in 2020. We can now handle 2-3 cohorts of DOOs at one time. My team I want to give a massive shout out to my Director of Marketing, Esther Littlefield who is such an incredible support. She is the person I trust in the strategic department of marketing. It has taken a big load off of me, so I can show up as the lead coach. We have been able to expand our hiring services big time. Diana Neff has joined us as our lead hiring manager, as well as Yolanda Rumpf. They are both DOOs and have strong competencies in hiring. Abby Herman has supported us in the content strategy area to make sure everything is streamlined, and Holly Cain with Prosper Collective has helped take our finances to the next level. Intellectual Property I have developed more intellectual property which means we have more content to share with those of you who choose to trust us and learn with us. Podcast Growth The dedication to this podcast has paid off! Referrals We put a lot of hard work into our marketing efforts, but I’m never upset about referrals! We have been really grateful for strong referrals. “Being reputable has made it very easy to expand our business through referrals.” What Didn’t Work? Technology Our tech stack is going to be shifting in 2021. Our current stack includes Samcart, Clickfunnels, Thinkific, and Convertkit. I have hesitancy about each one of these, and we will be exploring our options. Meetups I am a people person, and without conferences and meetups this year I’ve been a little heartbroken, and have felt somewhat isolated. I miss the networking and having some time away to focus narrowly on my business. Website content Since I have decided to niche down, we have some work to do to make the site match the messaging for our niche audience. What was missing? An Operations Coordinator We will be onboarding our 1st employee, Alex in January 2021. She will be able to fill in some of the gaps, where some of my other team members have been graciously filling in. More hiring managers We were so booked that we had to turn away business later in the year, so we are looking forward to hiring a few more people since our processes are so dialed in. Content in The DOO Certification Program We have been anxious to re-record the content for the DOO Certification Program. I’m ready to share new wisdom that I’ve gained over the last few years and I want to add some relevant examples. We have also hired an instructional designer who looks at how to piece together content so it flows better, how to be more inclusive to various learning styles, and the visuals and graphics that support the frameworks I teach on. Accreditation One of the first things I did when I created the DOO Certification Program was to look at how to get this program accredited. One of the pieces of advice I got was to have a good sample size. When you have enough feedback you have a more solid product. Right now we have 141 certified DOOs, and we are actively in conversations with some really exciting organizations to discuss accreditation. “Whatever we can do to increase the impact, opportunity and income for natural born operators… I am here for it!” Balance Personally, when the pandemic became serious, I was really fearful of how it was going to impact my business, which led me to overcompensate for the lack of control and steadiness that I didn’t feel. What was confusing? Whatever you write in this section, you need a strategy around it to address it. I leveraged people around me to help me with the confusing parts. Mindset I can be headstrong when it comes to abstract thoughts because I’m such an action-oriented logical, methodical person, so sometimes I don’t think I have mindset issues. My mindset is very different now than it was at the beginning of the year and I attribute that to my mentors and friends. I also learn so much from my own people; from the gals who come through this program who allow me to step up. By coaching their mindset gaps, mine has gotten stronger. “This is my year of transition, from baby business to big-girl business.” Financial Transition There has been quite a bit of growth this year, and I needed some strategies on how to handle that. We have been able to reinvest money back into the business and I’ve been able to leverage experts to help me in this area. Video Show I take slow action, but I’ve been thinking of starting a video show. It’s still not crystal clear. Pinterest Strategy Kate Ahl is a dear friend who runs Simple Pin, a Pinterest management company. She did a podcast with me where she did live coaching on my Pinterest strategy. I want to take Kate's thoughts and feedback and crystallize it in 2021. I hope you have found this helpful and found some good nuggets that will help get your wheels turning as it relates to your own business! Weekly Ops Activity Create your own reflection framework for your business in 2020. Then come on over to the FB group and share with us what has worked for your business this year.

Like many small business owners, Abby started her business on the side, working as a copywriter and content creator, while working full-time as a school teacher. She now runs a successful business with employees of her own. On this episode of the podcast, Abby and I talk about taking your business through many different stages of growth, including updating, or even changing your services as your expertise and your market grow, learning to let go as we begin to hire contractors and employees, and the many mistakes we make along the way (Abby confesses to going through several hires early on before realizing she wasn't prepared to hire effectively just yet!). We also discuss the pros and cons of hiring contractors vs. employees, and when it's time to transition from the former to the latter. As an added bonus, we also discuss specifically hiring a content strategist for your business as one of several people you may want to add to your contractor team, and why doing so can really fuel your business forward. “If you've been in business for 5-6 years, going the DIY route or educating yourself on [content creation] is not what you need. You need to delegate this work out at this point in your business.” - Abby Herman KEY POINTS Marketing is critical, even when business is good - “Stopping when you're full creates hills and valleys in your income” As a CEO, your job is to run your company, and it's not doing all the things in your business. Many business owners may start with independent contractors, but there is a limitation with hiring contractors, and you will need to eventually transition to hiring employees. Letting go as a business owner is hard - but understand you are building a relationship with someone when you hire them, and this takes time. Be patient with the process.

Uncomplicate Your Business | Small Business Strategy for Women Entrepreneurs
We all know that creating content is a fantastic way to showcase your expertise and your experience, and to help potential clients understand why they should work with you. But how do you figure out exactly what that content should be or how to make sure that you're doing it strategically, not just throwing a bunch of proverbial spaghetti at the wall? Well, in this episode, I am talking with my dear friend, Abby Herman, about how we can get more strategic about our content marketing.

Can't wait for you to meet another awesome human, Abby Herman, in this week's episode of the podcast. When I first met Abby, she was offering me hope in the form of content strategy for my website but since then, she's become a really great friend. One of the things I appreciate the most about Abby is her focus and dedication to personal and professional development - her intentional investment in herself and her business. As another podcast guest told me, "We often buy multiple houses, multiple vehicles, and invest in multiple educations in our lives but with only one body, we don't invest in ourselves often enough.". This thought struck home for me and in this episode, Abby shares how and why she invests in herself and the positive consequences (and self-employment!) these investments have had on her life. Abby's hope for a future better than today is what motivates her to keep taking action towards an even more fulfilling life. Abby Herman is a content strategist, consultant, podcaster, and founder and coach for Content Mastery Lab, a growing community of business owners who are ready to get visible online without the frustration or overwhelm. Abby also works 1:1 with business owners who would rather outsource their content marketing so they can get back to the reason they started their business in the first place!

You've heard it before, especially if you run a business… But content is king. Yeah yeah…that's all swell and everything, but did your neck just twitch? Did your heart sink just a little bit when I said that? If so, you're totally not alone. I mean, what the heck is content anyway? Do you really need to have an email list? Are you supposed to be on every single platform? Why do you have to produce content? What if you don't even know what it means to “produce content”? Oh boy, I feel you sister. I really do. And that's one of the reasons I'm so excited to bring you this week's episode with content expert, Abby Herman.
Since we’re talking about deep marketing this month, I wanted to invite someone on the show who’s had success with one of the deepest marketing strategies you could think of: building an audience one-by-one. Abby Herman is a content strategist and consultant at her company Write Solutions. She helps primarily service-based businesses owners market themselves online and get the visibility they need to grow their business. She gives one-on-one support and also runs a membership community called Content Mastery Lab, where she helps members figure out what their audience wants, what they need to hear, where they need to hear it and what content will help business owners meet their goals. In this conversation, Abby and I chat about her approach to messaging, writing and content marketing. We talk about the process of figuring out what your clients want and what they need to know so they can make a great purchasing decision when hiring you. Abby also discusses why she prefers building long-term relationships to mass marketing and how those relationships have benefitted her business.

I know that many of you are at a season in your business where you really want to be seen as the go to thought leader, but you're not exactly sure how to make your content work for you.

In this episode we're going to unpack exactly how to determine what your content strategy should look like: who are you creating content for, what our audience needs from you, and how to make it all work for the business you have right now and the business you want to have three months from now. This has been a highly requested topic, so I have brought in my friend and expert on the subject Abby Herman to talk to us all about how to create a content strategy for public speaking.

I’ve talked in the past that appearing on a podcast, if done right, can be the start of an incredible business relationship between guest and host. In this episode, I talk about all the ways you can help ensure that happens long before the ‘record’ button is hit. Yes, the way you pitch can create a lasting first impression. By the same token, the way a podcast host accepts (or rejects) pitches can be just as impactful. Listen as I lay out ways in which hosts and guests can make the pre-interview process as smooth as possible, so they can both turn up with their best energy. Topics covered include: What does being a gracious guest or host mean when talking about podcast visibility opportunities? How the relationship between guest and host can impact on the quality of the content which is delivered As a guest, playing by the rules of pitching is a great first step. Examples of how guests can show that they appreciate the opportunity The importance of podcast hosts having a clear system in place for potential guests to follow. And if you aren’t accepting pitches, make that clear!

Welcome to Stories in Small Business, a podcast experience that puts to rest the idea that we all need to do business the same way and celebrates the unique stories and paths that we’re all on. Hi, I’m Abby Herman and in the six years since I quit my day job, I’ve learned a thing or two about growing an online business. But it hasn’t been without some false starts and frustrations. You see, my journey has been a unique one, with intentional slow growth and doing things my own way. But the gurus out there will have you believe that the only way to grow is by following their lead. If you’ve been able to grow a business that way, more power to you! Here on Stories in Small Business, we’re going to celebrate the very different stories each of us has. Through solo episodes and guest interviews, we’re going to dive into how to use story--your story--to grow your business, overcome your own mindset challenges, foster business relationships and use content to gain more visibility online. This podcast is here because there was a gap in what was out there and I wanted a place to truly honor the growing business owner who wants to do it her (or his) own way. Are you ready to discover YOUR story and how you can grow your business in your own way? Lace up those sneakers...buckle up your seatbelt...do what you do when you dive into a good podcast. Let’s do this thing together!

"People have to hear things like 7, 8, 9 times in order for it to really register." "Whether it's a free event or not, you still want to get a commitment because once they say 'yes, I'll be there', they're much more likely to actually show up." "The more you can expand that experience for your clients, the better, and the more willing they will be to buy the thing." "Think about content in themes, and then it's a lot easier to then take those themes and plug in different ideas for a blog, for an email you send out to your audience, for social media posts." "When you have too many, your message gets watered down, and so people don't really know what to come to you for. They don't really know what you're an expert in." "Sometimes we're so close to our own content and our own ideas that we don't really know what other people need to know." "What I recommend doing is creating content that is complementary but not the same." "Think about where you can show up the best for your audience, and how you can promote that." "Think about that any time you're creating any content at all - what do you want them to do, or what do you want them to know, or what's the call to action at the end."
The Connected Yoga Teacher Podcast 106: Defining My Yoga Business Niche with Shannon Crow Description: What's your yoga business niche? Do you share your yoga with everyone, or are you focusing in on your zone of genius? Even though she has been in the yoga industry for 13 years, Shannon still struggles with defining her yoga business niche. On this episode, she shares her own process that helped her figure out where to take her yoga business. As Shannon started planning her content for 2019, and looking forward into how she wanted to grow her yoga business in the new year, she kept feeling stuck with some content planning. She shares the strategies that she uses in her content creation process - what worked, and what didn't work. (Hint: If you're having trouble with content, some of these methods will help!) The result of all her planning and reflection was the realization that she needed to niche down in her yoga business once again. Shannon talks about her struggle with accepting and admitting that her focus in her yoga business had shifted from where she started out, and why niching down is a process that never ends. If you've been feeling burned out from teaching too many different yoga classes or are feeling stuck in the work that you're doing - it may be time for you to look into defining your yoga business niche, and this episode has just the insights you need to get you started.

[18:47] Shannon shares how she does her content brainstorming - Start with the main content topic, then map out subtopics. [20:56] Shannon loves to map out three things when it comes to content - the channel she's releasing the content, the release date, and when she's creating that content. Why is this so important? [23:07] How is all of this related to defining your yoga niche? [25:58] Shannon talks through her struggles around Mama Nurture, and how she resolved them.

It's simply 'Just keep going'." "There have been times in my yoga career where it really does feel like very difficult work. And that's when I know I'm kind of fighting against where I'm actually supposed to be going." "You pick the channel where you really like to connect to your audience." "You do not have to make a content plan that would make sense to someone else." "Stick to one piece of content that you really love to do, that's your one main channel. And then add on as you want to, or as it works in. Don't try to do it all at once." "My content struggle is that I do not feel rooted in the 'now' with prenatal yoga." "I believe that each and every yoga teacher has a unique and amazing gift to offer to the world that no one else can."

My guest today is Abby Herman founder of Write Solutions, content marketing, and coaching for small business owners. While Abby isn't "technically" a wedding pro herself, she DOES serve wedding pros through her business and I knew I had to have her on the show to spill her content secrets. Abby has been a freelance writer for almost ten years and has been running her business full-time since 2013. I think we can all agree that between our blogs, social media, live video and the list goes on, that it can be overwhelming creating content for our businesses AND performing our actual jobs as planners, photographers, florists, etc. But we know we have to do it...at least some of it. In today's market, we have to keep an online presence in order to stay competitive. Abby is going to help us with our content strategy today. Abby takes us through what it is like when a wedding pro outsources to her and the services she provides. Then she walks us through what we can do if we're not ready to outsource and prefer to DIY our content plan. And finally, Abby tells us how we can (and should) repurpose our content in multiple ways to get the most mileage out of our message. This was a GREAT conversation and I took away a ton of ideas for repurposing my content in 2017 and I think you will too. Take a listen to the show and come back to the comments so continue the conversation. FULL SHOW NOTES & RESOURCES
