E-Book to Blog Series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>E-books are excellent content assets \u2014 but they&#8217;re rarely read in full. People download them because they&#8217;re free, because one or two data points caught their eye, or because the title hooked them, and then the full read rarely happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blog posts on the other hand are shorter, lower-commitment, and discoverable by people actively searching the topic on Google. So you can break one e-book into several posts, or a single series, with each post written for a specific search query and ending with a download CTA for the full e-book.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Case in point: this post started life as a chapter in one of our e-books.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We pulled it out, gave it a headline aimed at people searching for exactly this, and pointed it back at the full e-book \u2014 which is to say, we ran the play this section is describing, on this section.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A single chapter can spin off posts like &#8220;How to Repurpose a Webinar Into Social Clips&#8221; or &#8220;How to Turn an E-book Into a Blog Series,&#8221; each ranking for its own query and each ending with a download CTA.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Darren Rowse at ProBlogger proved the model in reverse: he published &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/problogger.com\/31-days-to-build-a-better-blog-the-podcast-series\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">31 Days to Build a Better Blog<\/a>&#8221; as individual daily posts, building an audience around each installment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He then packaged the series into a <a href=\"https:\/\/problogger.com\/31-days-to-build-a-better-blog-course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">paid e-book<\/a> that sold for years after.

Webinar to Social Clips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A 60-minute webinar has roughly 15 to 20 moments worth clipping (sometimes even more). Since marketing is generally overloaded, watching the webinar to find clips becomes a low-priority task that\u2026basically never gets done.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teams upload it to YouTube, send it out once in an email, and then it stops generating any returns. It just\u2026. Sits there.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, clipping workflows can be simplified with AI, if not completely automated. There are many tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.descript.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Descript<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/riverside.com\/co-creator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Riverside\u2019s co-creator<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opus.pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OpusClip<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.choppity.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Choppity<\/a>, among others, that help you automatically generate multiple clips from your longer video.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can run the video transcript through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dreamhost.com\/blog\/chatgpt-vs-gemini\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ChatGPT, Gemini,<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dreamhost.com\/blog\/claude-ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Claude<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dreamhost.com\/blog\/ai-prompts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">prompt the tool<\/a> to find the most interesting snippets from the conversation. Someone on the team can make a judgment call on which clips actually make sense and do the trimming.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here\u2019s one main characteristic of clippable moments:<\/strong> They work for someone with zero context about the rest of the webinar. It could be a statistic, a tactical recommendation, or a moment of visible disagreement between speakers standing alone. If the snippet requires previous context to be understood, that\u2019s not a good clip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Workflow:<\/strong> Watch the recording with a notes doc open. Timestamp every moment where you thought &#8220;that&#8217;s a good line.&#8221; Aim for at least eight candidates across 60 minutes.
