We never really get to use our smartphones’ full potential. Your smartphone is a tech tool. It has the potential to change your life, depending on how you choose to use it. Some are aware of these facts, but many people are not aware.
Apart from using a phone for daily communication, your phone’s camera is a virtual tool that can change your life. Creating content and building an audience can be possible by just deciding to show up daily. The more people see you on the internet, the more you will earn if you have a monetized platform. Even in business, the more eyeballs, the more potential to get a deal.
Social media is the passage to this explorative internet age. When you do something consistently, you will build influence. An audience will come if you do it excellently. Your smartphone is an opportunity to achieve all you ever desired by making money from content creation. Here are some of the things to take into consideration before starting:
- Choosing a niche
Starting to create content is easy when we have decided on what type of content we want to make. It could be a vlog! It could be anything, both convenient and challenging. You can decide to create content based on your career. It could also be based on what you have learnt or something you have in-depth knowledge about. If an individual starts uniquely recording his daily routine, such a person will gain an audience. We see this happening every day on TikTok.
Pick a topic that matches your strengths and where you can develop expertise.
- Develop a content plan:
Look out for what really sells out fast – dancing, singing, skit-making content etc. You have to do your research, decide on what you can do well and improve as time goes on.
- Network with like minds
Networking with like-minded people will increase your chances of knowing more about content creation. Give you strength and keep you going because you are surrounded by a positive community of creatives. There is a saying iron sharpens iron. When starting content creation, remember that your association will play a vital role. It will help mould your career in the niche of your choice.
- Consistent learning
You need continuous improvement to stand out. It is a crowded marketplace with smart creators. Learn more and offer your own unique values.
- Social Media
You need social media as much as you need an idea. Social media is your selling point, where you create and maintain your brand. The reality is that social media can change anyone’s life irrespective of gender, tribe, religion, location, etc.
Time to get started on the content creation journey!
