As the undisputed champs in the social media world, we have always strived to create killer and informative content that offers value and truly speaks to our followers.
But let’s be honest, some days are rough, and that’s a one-way ticket to burnout!
Social media managers often struggle with consistent postings. I mean, it’s a tough challenge when you have to keep thinking of new ideas all around the clock, and unfortunately, you can’t make it.
Despite the new features rolling out left and right, the legendary Elon Vs Mark fights, Twitter going all mysterious and rebranding to X, new Twitter alternatives, TikTok throwing textual posts, and whatnot.
Still, with all this spicy content, planning an entire week’s calendar is pretty challenging. If you are a social media manager, you probably have faced this challenge and felt the burnout.
So, guess what? Here, I have a little secret to tell you all, and that’s straight from the genius minds at Social Champ.
P.S., not sure if I can spill the beans on this secret, but let me share it with you anyway (heh!)

Why We Repurpose Our Content [What’s the Need]
So, why did we jump on the repurposing bandwagon in the first place? Well, let’s break it down this way.
First, it was all about making our lives a tad less hectic when filling up our social media content calendar. Repurposing content became our gateway to making content creation way less exhausting, and trust me, there’s hardly anyone who wouldn’t love this, right?
For instance, we had our fantastic blog post packed with valuable insights. But we wanted to take it further, so we repurposed it beautifully. We transformed it into a snappy TikTok video, summing up those valuable insights into bite-sized, engaging clips. But we didn’t stop there, we turned the core ideas into a sleek infographic that was visually captivating and informative.
And where did all this fresh content go? We shared it with our awesome audience straight to our social media platforms, and that’s the magic of repurposing.

LinkedIn Pulse
Our repurposing strategy on LinkedIn Pulse is about making the most of our existing blog content. Rather than reproducing full articles, we opt for a smarter approach. We create shorter versions of our original blog posts and include a ‘read more’ link at the end. This way, readers on LinkedIn get a taste of our expertise, and if they want to read more content, they can seamlessly hop over to our business blog for the full scoop.

So, we turn our fantastic blog packed with insights into a quicker and more attention-grabbing format. We repurposed it and transformed it into these snappy, visually enticing videos.
The best part, our audience absolutely loves this new way of sharing knowledge. We make sure to keep up with the timings and ensure our content is as accessible as it is to our potential audience.

Slideshare
When it comes to simplifying complex topics, we have a secret weapon: SlideShare. So, we all know there are moments when a picture truly does speak volumes, and that’s where SlideShare steps in.
We transform one of those long, heavy guides into an engaging slideshow in such situations. Each slide breaks down the content, making it super easy to understand.
Medium
Medium is for everyone! The platform opens the door to a whole new community of knowledge seekers. It’s our favorite place where we take our articles and give them a fresh twist. We believe in the power of sharing knowledge beyond boundaries, and Medium allows us to do just that.
So, we reuse our articles, like extracting the important information from the entire article and reworking on it, and introducing it to the vibrant community with a ‘Read more’ CTA at the beginning of the blog post.
Instagram Carousels
What can be even better than turning your detailed content into a quick, engaging Instagram carousel?
This is the practice we usually do with our detailed blogs!
We transform our awesome blog posts into sleek, scroll-stopping infographics for those Instagram-savvy users. We break down our blog’s content into bite-sized chunks, adding eye-catching visuals, and boom! Our IG Carousel content is fresh, exciting, and ready to be posted on Instagram.

Strategies to Follow for Blog Repurposing
Okay, so now let’s talk about how we master the art of blog repurposing. We have adopted a few strategies that do wonders for us.
Follow the Best Practices of Each Platform
First things first, one size definitely does not fit all because each platform has its vibe and requirements. That’s why we tailor our content accordingly to match each platform. Whether it’s the character limit barrier on Twitter or the visual content on Instagram, we ensure our content feels right. Following the best practices of each platform, we make sure that our repurposed content reaches and resonates with our audience.
Update Relevant Information
You know how things can change in the blink of an eye? That is why we make sure our repurposed content stays fresh and up-to-date. Keeping our audience well-informed is a top priority. That’s why we continuously monitor our repurposed content for any updates or changes in the information. If there’s something new and noteworthy, we make sure to add it.
Monitor Performance
Let me clarify this: We are not just repurposing and hoping for the best, but we keep a close eye on how our repurposed content performs. Here, I am talking about metrics, engagement, and feedback. Analyzing how our content is doing helps us to fine-tune our strategy, ensuring that our audience gets exactly what they want when they want it.
Also, we add a UTM tracker to track our data from the repurposing content.
Cross Promote on Multiple Platforms
Why limit ourselves to just one playground when there are so many out there? We believe in spreading love (and knowledge) far and wide. That’s why we like to do big cross-promotion. Our repurposed content doesn’t stay confined to a single platform. Instead, we take it on a multi-platform journey, ensuring everyone gets the maximum knowledge, no matter where they hang out.
Reduce, Reuse, and Repurpose
Summarizing it all! Our case study has shed light on the fascinating science behind repurposing content on social media. We have learned that by recycling our existing content, we can extend its lifespan, reach new audiences, and boost engagement.
So make sure to reduce your time, reuse your content, and repurpose it in multiple formats!
