  • Are you struggling to create content that adds value to your audience across various platforms?

    In this week's episode of Distribution First, Justin Simon dives into the concept of Platform Native Content and the importance of creating content that provides value exactly where your audience is.

    He discusses the key elements of Platform Native Content, like not being overly promotional, focusing on adding value to the audience, and the push vs pull strategy for content distribution.

    If you like distribution and repurposing playbooks, you'll love my weekly newsletter (it's free). Join 2,500+ subscribers here: https://news.justinsimon.co/

    Here's what you'll learn from the episode:

    #1: Understand the concept of Platform Native Content

    It's all about creating standalone content specifically tailored for different channels. This means giving your audience value right where they are, rather than trying to push them elsewhere. It's a subtle but powerful shift in mindset when it comes to content distribution and audience engagement.

    Key #2: The importance of audience-first content creation

    You'll discover why it's crucial to focus on creating valuable, audience-centric content. Learn how Platform Native Content isn't about pushing your own agenda, but rather about understanding and addressing your audience's needs, problems, and interests. It's about meeting them where they are and providing real value in their online spaces.

    Key #3: Embracing the push strategy for content distribution

    Learn the "push strategy" and why it's essential for successful content distribution. Instead of trying to pull people from various platforms back to your website or specific content, you need to meet your audience where they already are—whether it's on social media, in their inbox, or within online communities. It's about making it easier for your audience to engage with your content on their terms.

  • Are you creating content but can't seem to get enough viewers? You might be wondering, how can I get more people excited about my content?

    In this week's episode, host Justin Simon and guest Jason Bradwell, from B2B Better, talk about smart ways to share your content by focusing specifically on podcasts. They explain why it's important to start with a few episodes and tell your audience clearly what to expect. Jason tells us how you can make your podcast interesting to your listeners by really understanding who they are. Justin reminds us that it's not about how many listeners you have but whether you're reaching the right ones. You'll learn why having friends and co-workers spread the word can be a big help.

    Here are the top gems from Jason

    1. Define your “why”

    What is the purpose of your podcast and how will it align with business goals?

    Thought leadership?Brand-building?Lead gen?

    Get clear on your objectives first. Then start creating.

    2. Put your audience first

    Uncover the biggest problems your customers face and position your content as the solution.

    Hook listeners right away by making the premise relevant to them.

    3. Involve stakeholders across your organization early on

    Get input from Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, and others to help shape content and leverage the content across initiatives.

    Your clips be shared on social media, used in sales sequences, or turned into marketing newsletters.

    Steal Jason's blueprint for launching content that resonates.
