#164. Blogging, Video or Podcasting: Which Outreach Strategy is Right for You?

Ideal Practice

Hey there, everyone!

A common question I get from practice owners is: “What kind of content should I be creating to market my practice?” Should you be blogging? Doing video? Starting a podcast?

I get it. The options are endless, and each has its own learning curve. That’s why this week, I’m sharing my own content creation journey—the wins, the flops, and a few good lessons I’ve learned over the years.

Here’s some of what you’ll hear:

• The time I hurt my hand the night before my blog was due but published anyway (and why that’s NOT the way to do marketing!).
• What seven years of blogging taught me about writing for your clients—and yourself.
• Why my experiment with YouTube worked… and why it didn’t.
• How podcasting finally clicked as my “just right” content platform.

Most of all, you’ll learn the key questions to ask yourself when choosing the format that fits you best.

Whether you’re just starting out or ready to refresh your marketing strategy, this episode will help you get clear on where to focus your energy.

Give this a listen—I think it’ll help you breathe easier as you build your authentic online presence.
