3.16 - Repurposing content

Show Notes:

Repurposing – Using something that already exists for another purpose. 

Most people I talk to have a huge amount of content that they have already produced for blogs or books or podcasts, and the good thing about that when creating a course is it means that you don’t need to start from scratch.  The truth is you probably have a huge amount of content that could be easily repurposed. 

The steps for repurposing what you already have into course content are:

1. Map it all out – work out exactly what you want your course to cover and in what order.
2. Lay out all your existing content and see where the correlations are.
3. Fill in the gaps.  
4. See exactly what you have – now you can re-create as required.

 Action Steps:

If you haven’t started creating your course because if felt like the task was too big or you have too much on, don’t worry about the course content at the moment - instead start with a course map.  Work your way from the beginning to the end and work out exactly what your modules and lessons would be and in what order.  Then you can look at a strategy to work your course materials out.   It all starts with a solid, really clear course map. 

I have both course mapping templates and programs available, or if you need help sorting out what is going on in your head that is something that I can take you through as well.
