5 Monetization Mistakes and How to Avoid Them > Content Marketing

By | March 6, 2021

As you work to monetize your content, keep these things in mind to help you stay on the right track.

Too Many Distractions – Make sure your content doesn’t distract from your goal. Keep your formatting and message focused. If your goal is to motivate an opt-in, then make sure no other calls to action or links distract from that goal.

More Than One Goal Or Tactic – It’s not uncommon to see reports packed with affiliate links, “sign up for my e-course” links, and even affiliate recruitment links. Unfortunately, this is all too confusing for your readers. Focus on one goal per piece of content for best results.

Unclear Call To Action/Goal – Do your readers know what action they’re supposed to take once they’ve read your content? Make sure your call to action is clear and actionable.

No Follow Through – Seize the moment. You’ve successfully captured your prospect’s attention, now make sure you follow through. For example, if you’re using a report to build your list, and then you don’t follow through with goal-oriented, value-driven emails you’re missing out.

Inconsistent Content Quality and Frequency – The best way to achieve business and monetization success is with a content plan that consistently and frequently delivers high quality content. Be the business that always provides value-driven content and you’ll earn the trust and respect of your prospects, which ultimately leads to profits.

Overall, the key is to be focused and make sure your audience knows exactly what you want them to do. And, of course…ALWAYS follow up!
