💡💡You have to add  value when you create content.

🤦‍♂️ This is probably the most generic statement ever. Here is what I consider to be the specific ingredients for making content with value.

Value MUST include the following (tier 1):

Truth— Authenticity for me is absolutely essential for adding value.

People can see through BS through fog and miles away.

Relevance—content needs to be geared towards a specific (niche) audience to be considered valuable. Generic content will not cut it.

The following I consider to be tier 2 level importance for adding value.

🔷 Informative—this type of  content educates you about a specific process, product, service, history,  best practice, or thought leaders in specific niche industry.

This post is an example of informative content. 

🔷 Inspiration— provides  positivity, and hope in the face of adversity.  My post 3 Ways Hope Can Overcome Despair is an example of inspirational content.

🔷 Entertaining— provides fun through wit, humor, and storytelling.  Muffingate 2019 entertains readers.
