Don't Spread Yourself Too Thin

Posting to multiple platforms can 10x your reach - or drain your energy with no results. Here's how to do multi-platform content right.

Start With One Platform

Don't go multi-platform until you've succeeded on one:

  • Master one platform's algorithm and best practices
  • Build an audience that engages with your content
  • Develop a consistent content creation process
  • Only then expand to additional platforms

The Smart Expansion Strategy

Phase 1: Build on your primary platform (3-6 months)

Phase 2: Cross-post top performers to secondary platform (test)

Phase 3: If secondary platform works, invest more time

Phase 4: Once both platforms are stable, consider third platform

Cross-Posting vs Platform-Specific Content

Cross-posting works when:

  • Content is evergreen
  • Format works across platforms (vertical video)
  • You're testing to see what works

Platform-specific content works better for:

  • Leveraging platform-specific features
  • Established audiences expecting certain content
  • Maximizing performance on each platform

Managing Multiple Platforms

  • Batch content creation: Film multiple videos in one session
  • Repurpose strategically: Cut long YouTube videos into TikTok clips
  • Track what works where: Same content may perform differently on different platforms
  • Use unified analytics: See all your performance data in one place instead of switching between platform dashboards
