In this episode, I chat with a super cool guest, Kat Kurdziel, who knows all about helping service providers make awesome content. We talk about the big mistakes people make, what kind of content is best, and why it's so hard sometimes. Our guest gives us easy tips and tricks to make content creation a breeze!
My friend Kat Kurdziel is a content manager + coach and half of her business is offering DFY content services for her retainer clients who's biggest struggle is they have so much to say and share, but want to do it with purpose and in a way that actually supports their businesses and social media goals. The other 50% of her business is coaching other SMMs + OSPs to level up their own social media presence and skills so they can continue to skill, increase their rates, and help their OWN clients ignite their social media presence too.
