Joanne Lockwood: Upcycling and Recycling – #StandOut with Content Multi-purposing
In her workshop, Joanne Lockwood is going to help you focus on adapting and repurposing content.
She will guide you through the innovative process of transforming your existing content – videos, session recordings, podcasts – into a vibrant array of formats tailored for various platforms. This isn’t just about rehashing old material; it’s about unlocking the hidden potential in your work to create a continuous stream of engaging, fresh content that helps you #StandOut.
Throughout her career, Joanne has navigated the challenges and harnessed the opportunities within the ever-evolving content landscape. This session will be a practical deep dive into the art of content multi-purposing, utilising tools and AI to generate new ideas and scripts.
Together, we will explore case studies, participate in hands-on activities, and Jo will share insights from her personal content generation workflow.
You’ll learn how to breathe new life into every piece of content you’ve created, transforming them for maximum reach, engagement, and impact.
In this interactive workshop you’ll gain firsthand experience in repurposing a single piece of content into various formats, ensuring each piece resonates with its intended audience while maintaining your unique voice. By adapting your content for different platforms and audiences, you ensure it not only reaches but also engages your audience, helping you #StandOut in a crowded digital space.
Three key takeaways from this session will be:
- Mastering the art of repurposing content across multiple platforms, ensuring you #StandOut.
- Practical strategies and tools for generating fresh, engaging content ideas.
- Actionable techniques for tailoring content to different audiences, optimising reach and engagement.
We then have John Hotowka delivering his keynote: Prop up your Presentations
We can use words to get our messages across, and then we can use props, puzzles and stunts to make them even more memorable and inspire action.
As speakers we want our messages to be heard but more importantly, we want them to be remembered and to stimulate action.
Stories and metaphors can work, props and puzzles work better!
Tony Buzan, the father of mind-mapping, carried out studies and found the use of visual aids generally heightens retention of the spoken word by up to 70%… 70%!
Which is why using props, puzzles and stunts as metaphors to punctuate a message or point is so effective. And in this session, you will get to see how you can use props and puzzles in your talk to make your message more powerful.
In this interactive session you will learn:
- Which props, puzzles and stunts to use, when and how
- How to use a prop, puzzle and stunt as a metaphor
- How to make your point and message memorable
- How to increase audience engagement and interactivity
If you speak to groups of people in classrooms, churches, boardrooms or conferences and want to be able to speak more and speak better, come and join us.
