The Amplify Content Academy – AmpMyContentThe 5 Things That Cause Content To Fail…It wasn’t always easy.I had to make a lot of mistakes before we figured all this out.When we break it down, there were 5 major mistakes that were causing our content to crash and burn.If you want your content to work for you?Then you need to overcome these problems too.Mistake #1: You Are Not A Media CompanyHuman beings are hardwired to copy what we see.Why?Because by finding and copying patterns, it helped us to survive in the wild.Since then, we’ve evolved to use patterns to simplify our lives.It makes sense right?If you can find something you want, then copying how someone else got the result can help you get the same thing.But the thing is?We have to be careful WHO we copy…Let me explainWhen we’re reading online, its usually 2 types of content:Educational i.e it helps you learn and solve an issue, orEntertainment.The problem?We copy those entertainment sites and what they do with their content.Why care?Because these guys have a totally different business model to you!They get paid via onsite advertising.Every eyeball that sees an advert on their website, nets them a few cents.And so what do they do?Rather than get new readers or create quality content, they focus on bringing the same reader back 10 times per day.This means they churn out a whole heap of weak content, because they don’t care if it converts.This is actually good news for you.Why?Because your business model is different, it means that you DON’T have to be writing all the time to get results.Its not about volume.Its about depth and getting your readers to take action…Mistake #2: Entertaining, Not AutomatingOnce we get stuck in a habit, it can be hard to break out of it.Heck…Its hard to even see it happening.If you’re caught having to write all the time otherwise you won’t get traffic this week, then it can be scary to stop.But here’s the thing:You are far better off going out and finding NEW readers and bringing them to your old content, then you are just writing new content for the same people all the time.Why?Because new readers = new customers.People think that you need to keep interacting with your audience to make the sale.And sure, that is true.You do need a few interactions to move them to becoming a customer.But the thing is?You DON’T need to be writing new content each week, to make those interactions happen!Instead?You simply write a series of content that helps them convert into a customer, and then you automate it so that this series gets sent to each new reader.That’s how you can step away and still grow.The trick of course is getting those new readers to come to you…Mistake #3: Shotgun Marketing StrategyThere’s so many promotion channels out there, that it can be kind of overwhelming.SEO,Paid Ads,Forums,InfluencersPress etcEven then, each channel has multiple variations and platforms…Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Twitter Ads- the list goes onSo the question becomes:Just where should you spend your time to market your content?All of them?None of them?Well the truth is that every channel out there can help you grow, but they all have strengths and weaknesses.The trick is knowing which channels to use, and when.The best part?You don’t need to use all of themBut you DO need to use more than one, if you want to sidestep those weaknesses…Mistake #4: Its Not Inbound Vs Outbound…There’s a big disconnect in the marketing space.The inbound guys just want to write content so that people will come to them.The outbound guys?They’ll do outreach and ads all damn day, but they’re not actually building assets that help them grow.Its ‘Hunting’ vs Farming’But the thing is?They’re both doing it wrong…Why?Because you need a blend of both if you want to succeed and bypass those weaknesses.Let me explain:If all you do is outbound sales, then eventually you’ll fail.Get sick or try to take time off, and you don’t make any money that week.Not only that?But you’re selling one to one, not one to many.Even if you focus on paid ads, each channel is making it harder to succeed.You can’t just send them straight to a squeeze page anymore…Likewise inbound alone is madness!Why?Because it can take months of work to see results from SEO and so that content?It does nothing for you, if no one is seeing or reading it yet.In a recent study by Ahrefs, they found it could take 120 days just to get to page #1 rankings.120 days!And lets face facts here:Until you get to page #1, you’re not going to get much traffic in the mean time…So what can you do?Well imagine if didn’t just stick to just one promotion method?What if you could create long term content assets that rank and get traffic in Google.Better still?What if you could also promote that content to a brand new COLD audience, but at a profit?This means you can get traffic while you wait for it to rank.Better still?It means you can scale out to people who don’t even know about you yet- before they even start searching in Google.Before they even know what problem you solve…All while using content to make your life easier.Pretty cool right?And that’s just 2 promotion methods!Imagine if you used a few other channels so you could guarantee that you would get traffic on day #1 that the article goes live?#5: Going Alone Without A GuideHere’s something crazy…A study was done by scientists at Max Plank University in Germany.Its goal?To see how we respond, when we lack direction.Here’s how it worked:They sent people out to areas that lacked natural landmarks, such as deserts and forests. Places where the landscape looked the same, for as far as they eye could see.The scientists then left the subjects to find their own way out, and would track them via GPS.Do you know what happened?The test subjects would walk for about a mile in a straight line towards a direction they had chosen, but then?Then it gets a little weird…Lacking a specific landmark to help anchor them, they ALL started to walk in circles.Every person on every test.They would get so far, and then just start circling back to where they had been.(Some of them even turned around and went back the exact way they came- without even realizing it!)Why?Humans work off a system of Action, Feedback and ResponseWe use anchor points to help us plot a path, and then make minor course corrections.You wouldn’t think it would make a big deal right?But without a guide point to anchor us, we start second guessing decisions and suddenly we’re wandering in circles…What does this have to do with content?Oh so much…Without a clear end goal, you can never get to where you want to be.Worse?Without a process or a plan to get there, you’ll keep wandering in circles just like those test subjects.You have to have direction.A roadmap to take you from a, to b, to c and beyondYou have to know what action to take, and what mistakes to dodge.You need a process to help stop you second guessing and course correcting in circles. Otherwise your content will never really get the results that you’ve been craving.Instead time will pass and you’ll look up and find you’re not far off from where you started.Let us help you get you to where you want to be…The Amplify Content Academy is our step-by-step content creation and promotion program.Its designed to help you side-step these mistakes, so that you can create and leverage highly effective content that drives traffic and grows your audience.Its not just any old course…Its an indepth system to help you step off the content hamster wheel, and instead create assets that help your business for years to come.How?You start with a content idea and end up with a fully promoted, email capturing, traffic generating article by the endHeck…It’ll even help you step away and still get traffic, without feeling like you’ll starve if you don’t create new stuff that week!AccountabilityCommunityEasy to follow lessons with checklists, videos and step-by-step guidesPersonal consulting so no more ‘what if’sHow Is The Amplify Content Academy Different?Amplify is the first content marketing program to not just focus on ‘how to write content‘.That’s the easy part.We care about the PROMOTION and marketing of that content, so it actually gets you traffic and leads…How?By focusing on 3 primary goals:#1 How To Create EFFECTIVE Content That Drives ActionsSure we’ll teach you how to write easier, faster and more effectively than ever before- but most importantly?We’ll teach how to create content that converts.Content that gets leads, links and sales.That gets your audience to say “How am I only just finding this site?…”That gets them to take action.Heck…Content so good that people try to steal you for their own company!Why care?Because the better your content performs- the less traffic you need to get results.How?Because suddenly its doing twice the work it was before… or more.(Doubling your conversions is the same result as doubling your traffic)Even better?We don’t just stop there…#2 How To Get Traffic From Day ONE Of PublishingMost people focus on traffic methods that take a while to kick in, and nothing else.Not here.We’ll show you how to get traffic to your content from day ONE of publishing it.That’s right- no more waiting for results to trickle in.Even better still?We’ll teach you how to ‘trade up the chain’ and build traction, so you can leverage new opportunities.
