The "2nd copy" strategy involves creating a modified version of your existing content to reach new audiences and maximize impact. This can include revised headlines, alternate images, or completely new formats such as videos or podcasts. Jon Morrow, a content marketer, achieved over half a million views by repurposing his blog post into a video. Research shows that 91% of B2C marketers distribute content in multiple formats. To create your 2nd copy, analyze your original content and tailor each version to specific audiences and channels. The goal is to provide unique value while leveraging the same core idea in various formats.
