💡 Today’s Insight 💡
🗞 TL;DR - Content creation is great, but content curation can make a huge difference when you’re struggling to find new fodder to post on social media. Content curation refers to the act of finding content elsewhere that you can repurpose on your own channels. Buffer explains in their latest blog why you should try content curation and tools you can use to expedite the process.
💡 Insight - Here’s why you should care about content curation:
It helps with idea generation - Ever come up with a tangential idea for another project while working on something? Save that idea for later and build on that idea with content curation tools.
It forces you to keep up with latest industry trends - Content curation allows you to make sense of hot topics and action them in your own content.
It diversifies your visuals - Lean into cool visuals that you don’t have to create, by elevating content curated elsewhere.
It saves your team time and effort - Creating content can be exhausting and time-consuming. Content curation helps you outsource this and curation tools help automate this process entirely.
It strengthens your authority - Curation helps you position your brand as a trusted authority who creates and shares valuable content from reputable sources.
