The holidays are right around the corner and it’s a crazy time of year for busyness, travel, extra parties, time with family and friends, and uh-oh, you forgot to create any holiday-themed content to share with your crowd.
What do you do? Follow these four steps:
Grab your phone - it’s probably already in your hand.
Open Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, whatever platform you want to use.
Find a holiday-themed backdrop or item, like a pumpkin, a wreath, a Christmas tree, an ice skating rink, something you really only see around during the holidays.
Record a video with that item and talk about how that item reminds you about a challenge your audience is facing - and then, connect that challenge with a solution or tip you can offer to your audience.
It takes less than five minutes, but it can be a great piece of content. You don’t need to hire a video crew or rent out a studio. Some of the best holiday-themed content is created on your phone. Just pull out your phone, hit record with a wreath or Christmas tree behind your shoulder, and connect a holiday trend or idea with your Message.
When you’re done, post it on social media and tag me @keynotecontent so I can see what you created.
Have fun and remember your Message matters!
