5 Types of Content To Batch Like a Boss
As an online business owner, one of the biggest parts of the job is creating content. Your content is what attracts your ideal clients, adds value, and builds know, like, and trust before they decide to buy from you. However, constantly creating content can be a huge time and energy suck. Instead of always being in creation mode, check out these 5 types of content that you can batch like a boss.
What is Content Batching?
Content batching is essentially creating all of your content for a specific timeframe all at once. You can batch content for the week, month, quarter, or whatever works best for you. Batching content requires a little heavy lifting up front, but it has a huge pay off in the long run.
When it comes to getting more shit done in your business, it’s all about working smarter, not harder. Batching content allows you to do just that because once you get in the groove, you can knock out a bunch of content before moving on to the next task. There’s no switching your brain on and off between tasks. Once you’re in content creation mode, it’s so much easier to do it all at once.
Posting consistent content is crucial to staying top of mind with your audience. By batching content, you can rest assured that it’s all ready to go and you don’t have to worry about posting to Instagram at 9pm on a Friday night or writing a blog post last minute on Tuesday morning.
5 Types of Content to Batch
There are 5 main types of content that you can batch in your business to save time and reach more people.
They are:
Social Media Posts
Blog Posts
Podcasts
Emails
Video Content (YouTube, Trainings, Reels, etc).
By setting aside a couple of hours in your calendar each month to create this content ahead of time, you can save yourself hours later on. Simply create the content, edit it as necessary, and use a scheduling tool to schedule it out.
We love using Later for all of our social media scheduling, but there are several amazing options out there. You can schedule your blog posts, emails, podcasts, and video content via the platforms you use as well.
By batching content, you’ll be able to plan out your content as far in advance as you’d like. Having the stress of daily content creation taken OFF your plate will result in a giant weight off your shoulders and higher productivity!
