Description:

 

Do you struggle with putting out content that connects you to your yoga students? Have you gotten overwhelmed about promoting your yoga offering - not knowing where to start, which platform to choose, or even what to say? Abby Herman is just the expert you need to hear from about all things content-related.

 

Abby is the founder of Write Solutions and is a content strategist who helps her clients to get their message out to their audience, in their own voice, and on their own terms.

Quotes from this episode:

 

"Launching means you are putting something out there ... to your audience and it's a way to really narrowly focus your audience's attention on one thing that you want them to buy."

 

"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."
