This approach prevents overwhelm and allows gradual improvement and scaling. He emphasises getting started and overcoming perfectionism, especially by using interviews, which are easier than monologues.Leverage AI Tools for Efficiency:   - AI tools like Descript, ChatGPT, and Opus Clip can significantly streamline the content creation process. These tools help with transcribing, editing, generating show notes, and creating short-form content. However, it's crucial to use AI responsibly by refining outputs to ensure they match your voice and brand, turning AI into a valuable assistant rather than a crutch.Repurpose Content:   - Repurposing content maximises the value derived from a single piece of content. By starting with a video, you can efficiently create various content formats like podcasts, blog posts, social media updates, and more. The key is to develop a system for repurposing that fits within your resource constraints and gradually increase the breadth of content repurposing as you become more comfortable with the process.Links Mentioned In The Episode...Ian on Facebook > https://www.facebook.com/iagdotmeIan on LinkedIn > https://www.linkedin.com/in/ianandersongray/Visit Ian’s Website > https://iag.me/—--👇 Book a chat with Jon to explore working 1-2-1 with him 📞
