How to defeat the blinking cursor and start writing for growth

Good writing is good business. Unfortunately, many indie creators find this out the hard way after months of attempted growth hacking.

Here are a few practical tips you can use to start delivering value with your content and communicating your product more effectively.

    The hardest thing about B2B is that you're often selling to someone who didn't budget for your category. They need the result you provide but never planned to pay for it.

    The products that win here usually create a new budget line (by being categorically new) or steal from existing budget by making the ROI comparison obvious. Which of those are you trying to do?

    Actually I do not like creating backlinks and this is the toughest part for me in SEO. I believe in creating content with quality that makes people to link to it. The amount of time and energy we spend on creating links, we'll get 20x more results if we create more content for our website!

    Nice stuff. Writing content is an afterthought for most indie founders. It should not.

    Here is why

    • You will need a blog
    • A decent website copy
    • Some emails to send
    • Let's not forget social media
    • Cold emails
    • Video scripts

    and the list goes on.

    Learning how to write can give you inexpensive but mind-blowing ROI.

    It will pay off in the long run and how..

    Some great tips here @mikemcalister
    I've definitely had the writers block at times.

    This is why I use Notion to track my content writing. Instead of having a calendar like most people!

    I have 1 column per long-form content. I can then create similar to what @abhishek_e has mentioned, a podcast from the written content, videos, social posts etc. I will put all of these different content snippets under one column. So they are all together.

    I will have nearly 20 per long-form content.
