148: Make Content Creation Easier

Author: The Two Lauras March 18, 2025 Duration: 30:35

If you don’t believe us when we say that content ideas are everywhere you look, chances are you’re not doing enough “social listening”. “What the heck is social listening?”, we hear you cry. Well, it’s more than just having notifications switched on for when your client gets mentioned anywhere. There’s loads more you can do, loads of tools that can help you out, and best of all – doing more social listening means better content, so you’ll be on your way to charging four figures per month in no time. You’re going to learn tonnes in this episode – so get your notebook out!

In this episode, we’re chatting about:

  • The two types of social listening
  • Why you really need to be doing social listening (and how it can help you charge the big bucks)
  • Where to look and tools you can use to automate some of the process
  • How to actually take action and make your clients’ content better
