It’s Like Doing The Dishes!
Well… we’ve come to the sixth and final step to creating a content strategy, “rinse and repeat”. Sounds like what you do with your dirty dishes, right?
Of course, there can be many more than 6 steps, but this series was designed to help beginners not get overwhelmed with all that goes into blogging, haha.
And I kept these steps short and sweet, for the same reason. For even more detail, a Google search will bring up more than you can imagine! Just make sure it’s from a reliable source!!

So let’s do the dishes… er… I mean rinse and repeat!
Step Six: Rinse and Repeat
You should constantly create new, fresh content in order to maintain an effective content strategy.
I know that means a lot of research, but if you check out this article by Neil Patel, you should never run out of ideas: https://neilpatel.com/blog/101-content-ideas/
This is the “working” part that leads to success.
This is where most entrepreneurs quit! Writing consistent content isn’t always fun. Sometimes it can be downright boring.
But when you start seeing commissions come in, you’ll get that renewed motivation to keep pushing forward.
Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat…
Now, your blog posts don't need to be published every day, but you should have a regular publishing schedule that you try to stick to.
As long as you continue to create new content, you'll keep your audience coming back for more in the long run. If they know you'll release a new article every Wednesday, let's say, it's entices them to look forward to Wednesday's!
If you want your content marketing (blogging) efforts to be successful, consistency is crucial.
What I like most about a content strategy is that:
- It will help you stay consistent with your messages and branding.
- It helps reduce your time wasted, writing about non-relevant topics.
After all, publishing content that doesn’t serve a purpose wastes time and resources, right?
To grow your online business, try using these 6 steps. It’s the best way to create a successful content strategy!
Cheers,
Suzanne

Thanks, Jeff, really appreciate that. Especially from someone who's been around the block like me, haha!
Cheers
You're very welcome, Suzanne, but I have likely been a few more times around the block than you! How old are you? 35?

Awe what a sweetheart you are. I just come from great genes. My mom’s 82 and barely a wrinkle 😉
Dishes and laundry are not my favorite subjects :-(
However, like your other posts in this series Suzanne, I like the content strategy, and for someone like me who is new to blogging and creating articles...having to do this regularly is a struggle for me at times.
Neil's article will also be a big help to me!
This series has been helpful...thank you!

You're so welcome, Mike. Creating content is my bane as well, but we gotta do it, right? That's the only way to succeed. No push-button promises here. That never works, lol.
Have a great weekend!
Cheers
I guess it kind of like exercising. You may not like doing it. You have a hard time keeping it up but you got a push forward because you know it’s gonna make you better.
