The RK3 Show

When you find yourself in a rut and running out of new content to share, what do you do? Do you force yourself to come up with a new one regardless if it is uninspired or do you wait until inspiration strikes?

Most of us hold back or get stuck because we feel the need to constantly create new things. For years in my business, I've been creating and generating content until I have nothing new to say. Then I would hide until I can find something new to provide.

But then I realized as I was going through my old, forgotten content - it still had IMPACT! Spend some time with me today as I share with you the reasons why repurposing your content can help you unearth a goldmine.

• [05:43] Had I been smarter, where should I have looked for inspiration on content for my audience?
• [06:28] Why do people listen or watch their favorite content over and over again?
• [07:45] Reason# 1: Reuse stories and content because some people are just getting introduced to you.
• [10:09] Why do commercials constantly run and eventually become viral?
• [10:55] Reason# 2: Reuse stories and content because you get better at it.
• [13:04] Reason# 3: Reuse stories and content because it helps to reinforce your voice and ideas.
• [15:00] How do you get to a "spiritual moment" as a speaker?

How do you get heard when everyone else is talking at the same time?

We are experiencing a new normal today - where we have to stay home to keep safe and as a result, everyone wants to keep in touch or share something virtually. But can too much of a good thing be bad enough?

• [09:52] Tip #2: Watch how you look. What will you do to make your message stand out?
• [11:47] Tip #3: Be a little different. Incorporate your brand in your message but add in the element of surprise.
