If you are a fan of reels or tiktoks or just video in general on social media, you may have noticed that some people just know how to create really great videos!

Even though it may not be obvious to you, most of these creators follow a steady and simple strategy when they create content. In this episode, I will be sharing the three things I make sure I include whenever I create video content.

So grab a pen and get ready to learn how to create BETTER vertical video content (FYI, that means reels or tiktoks!)

If you have had some professional branding done, this whole episode is a gentle reminder that sometimes it may not translate onto social media posts What your website looks like *may* fall flat when replicated onto a graphic. Let's have an open mind!

When you are creating content, remember it should be designed for the people consuming it RATHER than just looking super pretty / on brand or in accordance with the branding that someone else (who is normally a designer) has created.

If you are a small biz, you will probably create content using one of two apps or some sort of software. Are you a Canva fan... or maybe Adobe has your heart instead?

As an official Canvassador & Canva Creator, I obviously use Canva (and love it whole heartedly!) But often on social media, I get comments like: "You're not a proper designer if you use Canva."

So in this episode, I chat all about the content creation tools I love and use myself, and we discuss why it isn't even the software you use that matters anyway.

Tools I use for Content Creation are:

Canva (for graphics)

ProCreate (for doodling)

Metricool (to schedule)
