It"s the stories that people remember.Integrated into everything else you"re doing, find a way to maximize what you"re doing on the live stream, use it on other places, whether it"s an article, whether it"s social, whether it"s different things, and then kind of see what takes off, you know, maybe it"s the light, maybe you need to focus more time on the live stream and less time on blogging.Be very strategic over what you want to update what you want to produce after the fact.There"s always a way to repurpose, and sometimes it"s as simple as taking the new podcast or the new live stream, and embedding it into an old article, In the end, you"re done.So my biggest advice is, stop the excuses that you don"t have the right equipment. There are 47 dominoes that have to fall. Something doesn"t work on a live stream. Don"t sweat it, you know, just do what you can. And if it doesn"t work, try it again later, or just do a podcast, you know, and use the podcast.
