Today’s Insight

📰 TL;DR - Why reinvent the wheel when you can squeeze as much mileage out of it as possible? Adobe Express just published a new report on how SMBs are repurposing their content and how you can take these ideas into your 2024 content planning.

💡 Insight - Some interesting stats from the report:

  • On average, SMBs repurposed content 7.5 months after initial publication

  • TikTok was the most effective platform for repurposing content with Instagram and websites/blogs shortly behind

  • After repurposing content, nearly half of SMBs saw an 11-25% increase in engagement rates

The most successful ways to repurpose content included:

  1. Cut long-form video content into shorter clips for IG Reels or TikTok

  2. Craft video content based on written material

  3. Turn text-heavy blog posts into visual infographics or a thread on X or Threads

  4. Convert video content into blog posts

  5. Make a webinar from recorded video content
