Cross-Platform Content Repurposing

“Create Once, Publish Everywhere” (COPE). This efficiency-focused course teaches the workflow of taking a single piece of “Pillar Content” (like a podcast or long-form video) and fracturing it into dozens of micro-assets for TikTok, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. Students will learn to maximize ROI (Return on Investment) on their creative energy through strategic editing and automation.

  1. Master the "Content Pyramid" strategy: Pillar vs. Micro Content
  2. Edit long-form video into vertical short-form clips (Reels/Shorts)
  3. Transcribe audio/video to create blog posts, newsletters, and Tweets
