Help your key messages shine in your content


Memorable Messaging

In an ideal world, we want people to tell others about our businesses, but for that to happen, they need to be clear on what it is you do.

Hi Reader,

When creating content for your business, it's easy to focus solely on topics or trends that are hot right now. But to create content that truly resonates and drives results, it's essential to integrate your key messages consistently into everything you share.

The more consistent your messaging is, the more likely someone who follows your content will be able to resonate with it or repeat it to someone else.

Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Clarify your core messages: Before you begin writing, make sure you know your key messages inside and out. These are the core ideas you want your audience to remember about your business, for example your values, your unique selling proposition, or the problems you solve.
  2. Align your content with these messages: Almost every piece of content you create should reflect and reinforce these key messages. For example, if you make jewelry, your content could consistently highlight your inspirations, approach to raw materials, your style, the work that goes into each piece and the quality or wearability of your pieces.
  3. Be consistent in tone and language: Ensure that the language you use in your content mirrors the tone of your key messages. Whether it’s professional, friendly, or inspirational, the language should always feel authentic to your brand and support the message you want to communicate.
  4. Repeat and reinforce: Consistency is key. You don’t have to repeat the same message word-for-word every time, but make sure that the essence of your key messages comes through regularly, in different formats (blog posts, social media, videos, etc.). Over time, this helps build trust and recognition.

By weaving your key messages into your content, you’ll build a stronger, more consistent brand that speaks directly to your audience.

To create a content strategy that integrates your key messages seamlessly, ask yourself these 3 questions:

  • What do I want a passerby to understand about my business?
  • What do I want a follower of my content to understand?
  • What do I want someone to hear about my business from someone sharing it?

This will help you to check in on and refine what should be conveyed.

Finding a better way can often mean finding a more calm way to do your marketing... Hi Reader, I totally get it! Doing your marketing sometimes feels like a little too much. You’re busy, and you don’t want to put time into something that might not work. It’s also a little vulnerable putting yourself out there. On the latest episode of the podcast, Rachel Posner, a yoga therapist and mindfulness coach, told me about the window of tolerance. It’s a psychological concept of the optimal zone to...

What do your customers need to know before they buy? How are you making sure that your marketing covers those needs? Hi Reader, Creating marketing content for your audience is great and all, but if you don’t show them the things they need to know to make that purchase, they will only keep a somewhat superficial attachment to your brand, and most won’t end up purchasing. They need to be aware of your offer, but for every business there are a few extra things people need to know. These things...

Tell me what you want What you really, really want Hi Reader, Being in community helps you feel less alone in business, gives you access to opportunities, genuine connection and referrals. But the best thing community gives you, for your marketing at least, is the fresh perspectives and collective learning. The part I love most about being engaged in the community any business operates in, is that you hear what the market wants, needs, or is getting stuck on. You’ll find out about trends (not...
