Using tools like Google Docs for content repurposing can be highly effective, where the focus is on brain dumping ideas and breaking them down into components for redistribution. This method helps in organizing content distribution strategies efficiently.
Measuring Success with Channel-Specific Metrics
When measuring success, it is essential to focus on channel-specific metrics. For instance, Google Analytics provides insights like keywords, page views, and sessions, while platforms like YouTube and podcasts offer watch or listen time metrics to gauge engagement.
