The Digital Marketing Strategy That Builds Your Brand: Rory Vaden’s Playbook

Introduction: The Strategy That Defies Conventional Wisdom

Would you dare to give away your expertise for free?

It might sound counterintuitive, but it’s precisely what I recommend and what has worked wonders for us at Brand Builders Group.

Forget the skepticism that giving valuable content for free devalues your brand or puts you out of business.

Let’s delve into a content marketing strategy that educates your audience and turns them into your biggest advocates.

Teach Everything You Know for Free—Yes, Free!

Why Free Doesn’t Mean Worthless

We often hear, “If I teach everything I know for free, why would anyone pay me?”

The answer to this lies in understanding what your audience actually pays for.

They don’t pay for information.

They pay for organization and application.

They’re essentially hiring you to guide them in applying what they’ve learned to their business or life.

The Random Order Philosophy

Teaching in a random, miscellaneous order is a strategic move.

It adds another layer of value to your paid content by offering structured, organized information.

This makes the paid content easier for your audience to apply.

The Three E’s: A Tactical Approach to Content Creation

Entertainment

Is your content designed to make people laugh, cry, or simply pass the time?

If you have a knack for creating captivating stories or cracking jokes, this is your playground.

Viral videos often fit into this category.

Encouragement

Sometimes, people just need a pat on the back or a motivational push.

Speak directly to your audience’s challenges, fears, and hopes.

Encourage them as you would a friend in need.

This heartfelt connection can be powerful.

Education

This is the cornerstone for many of us at Brand Builders Group.

Take your expertise and break it down into digestible lessons.

Think of educating as empowering your audience to overcome obstacles and achieve goals.

Transforming One Asset into Many: The Content Diamond

Starting With a Main Asset

The first step is creating a core asset, usually a 5-10 minute video.

This is your raw material for a plethora of content forms.

Text and Imagery Assets

Transcribe the video and turn it into a full-length article.

Post this on platforms like LinkedIn Pulse or Medium.

From this, extract powerful points and create image quotes or carousels.

These become standalone assets that you can share across various social media platforms.

Video and Audio Assets

Take the same video and edit it for YouTube, adding elements like B-roll and music.

Strip the audio and voilà, you have a short-form podcast.

Cut it down further into 60-second clips for TikTok, Reels, and other short-form platforms.

The Final Layer: Your Personal Brand’s Home

All these micro-assets lead back to one place: your blog.

This is where the audience can consume your content in all its various forms.

It’s also where they can engage with you, ask questions, and gradually build trust—until they’re ready to become paying customers.
