Everyone wants to know how to create content for their newsletter or ecourse, well,
here's
how I do it...
1. Find questions you've already answered...
If you're anything like me I'm sure you've made lots of forum posts where you've helped someone
in some way. Just turn your answer into an article for use in your newsletter or ecourse.
2. Look for questions people have asked...
Just supposing you've never answered a question in a forum before, here's a really great way of
finding questions to answer and create content around.
Go to http://answers.yahoo.com then type in the main keywords for your niche to
search for questions on. You'll then get a nice list of questions people have asked about your
chosen subject. Take a few minutes to look through those questions for the ones most commonly asked.
Once you know the most popular questions just write your content as your answer and send it out to
you subscriber list. It doesn't get any easier than this.
3. Expand on you most popular blog posts...
If you're like many other internet marketers I'm sure by now you've realized the power of
blogging. But did you know that it's probably full of some content gems just waiting to be picked
up. Here's all you do... look for your most popular blog posts then expand on them and turn them
into articles you can publish in your newsletter, or as an ecourse delivered by email.
4. Interview experts...
All you do with this one is find someone you can interview, record your conversation then
transcribe it and turn it into a series of articles you can publish direct to your subscribers, in
your newsletter, as an ecourse or even as a PDF people can download. If you can't find anyone to
interview, try flipping it around the other way and get someone to interview you.
5. Just ask...
If you have a subscriber list, a blog or a website just set up a survey where you ask people this
question... "what's your single biggest question about (add your subject)?".
Once you have your questions back from your subscribers all you do then is write out your answer.
There's your great content. By using this approach you can build a stronger connection with your
list of subscribers as you answer their specific questions.
The possibilities of content creation are virtually endless. Go ahead and try a few out. I think
you'll be pleasantly surprised at how easy content creation for your newsletter or ecourse can be
once you get started.
