I make one piece of content per week. From that single piece, I get content for seven platforms. Here is the exact workflow, step by step.
The Content Waterfall
Start with your longest-form content (usually a blog post or video) and work down:
- Blog post (1,500 words) — The source material. This is where you do the deep thinking.
- Twitter/X thread — Pull out 5-7 key points. Each tweet is one idea. Add a hook as the first tweet.
- LinkedIn post — Rewrite the intro as a personal story + key takeaway. LinkedIn rewards personal narratives.
- Instagram carousel — Turn 5 key points into slides. One point per slide, big text, minimal design.
- Email newsletter — Summarize the blog post with a personal angle and a link to the full version.
- Short-form video — Record yourself explaining the main point in 60 seconds.
- Pinterest pin — Create a vertical graphic with the title and key stats.

Platform-Specific Adaptations
According to cross-platform content research, the same message needs different packaging for different platforms:
| Platform | Format | Tone | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twitter/X | Thread or single tweet | Punchy, opinionated | 280 chars per tweet |
| Text post with line breaks | Professional, personal | 1,300 chars ideal | |
| Carousel or Reel | Visual, aspirational | 2,200 char caption max | |
| Newsletter format | Conversational, direct | 500-800 words |
The 80/20 of Repurposing
You do not need to be on every platform. Pick 2-3 where your audience actually is and do those well. Being mediocre on 7 platforms is worse than being great on 2.

As content strategy experts note, the best content creators are not the most prolific — they are the most efficient at extracting maximum value from every piece they create.
