Manage episode 498772265 series 3345188
Do you ever feel like content is a one-sided conversation?
In this episode of The Powerful Content Podcast, Mel Daniels takes you behind the scenes of what really makes content resonate and why simply “putting content out there” isn’t enough if it’s not reaching the right people.
She explores what it truly means to create intentional content that connects that builds trust and moves your ideal audience through their client journey.
Mel begins by breaking down the often-confused terms audience, niche, and ideal client, and why having clarity on each is essential to building a strategy that feels aligned and effective. Then, Mel shares her go-to techniques for creating content that reflects your values, speaks to your people, and brings ease back into your content marketing.
Plus, she offers insight into empathy as your secret content superpower and how to refine your message using real-world feedback (without spiralling into self-doubt).
