It’s not about the content at all. It’s about the people and how great you think the people reading the content are – that they are smart, and they know what they want. And, if you give them the content that they want, they’ll do great things with it. I believe you must know why you are creating content, and I’m not talking about turning a profit. Yes, that’s great. I love money. Most of us do, and we want our businesses to succeed, but profits are the result of adding value to the world. That’s the story that most businesses tell us – what the product does or how fabulous it is.

Your content is nothing unless you use it to make lives better. Content that seeks to profit your audience has greater energy and inspires action. For your content to be meaningful, for it to inspire people to take action, it must have a purpose. Why do you do what you do? What impact are you hoping to make?

Take a look at your business, evaluate the reason why you do what you do. What made you start that business? What was the benefit you wanted to bring to people’s lives? That’s the story that you must tell in your content. How to be More Authentic in Your ContentThe content is nothing until it inspires
