Ever wonder how those people make so much content on every channel? Posts 2-3-4 times a day? Well, good news - they don't actually do it all themselves. They make one piece of content, called a pillar piece, and that gets duplicated across the internet with either a small team or with AI.
Today, I want to show you exactly how that's done. It's the same method I've been using to grow my brand to 100,000 subscribers and expand on Twitter and LinkedIn. I create one pillar piece of content, then create 731 pieces from it. We use AI to download the transcripts and distribute them everywhere - from blog posts to newsletters to social media. Ready to learn how? Let's get started.
Hey there, I'm Brad Smith, owner of AutomationLinks. I've been in the marketing game for over 10 years and have helped more than 25 people. My goal today is to help you, to educate you, and give you this little piece of value that you can use and implement in your business.
It all starts with one core pillar piece, and this needs to come from your voice. It could be:
Talk about something you're an expert at or something you've experienced. Teach something, maybe discuss a mistake you've made and how you fixed it. If you're new, this approach helps others learn from your mistakes. If you're an expert, teach what you know best.
The key is to educate your audience. Think about your ideal customer learning from you. Give them a cheat sheet, a tip, something that provides value from your words. Don't use AI for this part.
Take that transcription or blog post and plug it into an AI software that will duplicate it. Here's the trick: tell the AI to only use the words that you used or wrote. Don't add or remove any words. This eliminates any AI-generated content - it's only your words, no plagiarism, no AI detection.
Make sure your original piece is long enough. A short paragraph won't give the AI enough to work with. It needs to be substantial enough for the AI to duplicate and run with.
I have a content planner for every single channel, use it yourself by clicking here.
It's hard to keep up with all these platforms, which is why you need a planner. It tells you exactly what to post, when to post, what time to post, and how to post it.
If you're a solopreneur or just starting out, do this yourself. Use a scheduling software - we use Go High Level. Spend an hour a week scheduling these posts.
The goal is to get consistent, educational, helpful content on all these platforms. This way, people start learning from you, remembering you, and seeing you as an authority because you're everywhere.
Once you've got the process down, find a virtual assistant or hire a small team to handle this for you. I did it myself first, created the entire playbook, set up my content planner, and established the process:
Then I handed it over to someone else. I use Fiverr and can recommend someone who will do this for you. You create that one piece of content, hand them the playbook and content planner, and they can duplicate it daily and weekly for you. You can find someone overseas to do this for $5-10 an hour, saving you time and money.
Thanks for reading all the way to the end of this post. As a thank you, I want to give you my content planner. Just comment "blueprint" in our Youtube video comment section, and I'll send you the exact content calendar we use for AutomationLinks - the one I use to turn one piece of content into 731 pieces.
I hope this post brought you a ton of value. Go make one piece of content, duplicate it, get it out to the world. Build your name, build your brand, and get more customers. Thanks again, and I'll see you in the next post.
While there's no strict rule, aim for a substantial piece of content - ideally 1000-2000 words for a blog post or 15-20 minutes for an audio/video. The key is to provide enough depth and variety in your content for the AI to work with effectively.
When used correctly, AI can generate varied content from your original piece. The key is to provide clear instructions to the AI and use a good content planner to ensure diversity in your posts across different platforms.
This method can save significant time - potentially hours each day. Instead of creating 731 unique pieces, you're creating one pillar piece and using tools and possibly a team to distribute variations of it, freeing up your time for other business activities.
This method can be adapted for most businesses and industries. The key is to ensure your pillar content is valuable and relevant to your target audience. Some industries may require more frequent updates or time-sensitive content, which you can incorporate into your strategy.
The authenticity comes from your original pillar piece, which should be created by you based on your expertise and experience. The AI and team are simply helping to distribute and repurpose your authentic voice and knowledge across different platforms.
