In a digital-first environment that moves at lightning speed, “content is king” continues to ring true, but it’s becoming effortlessly impossible to generate quality content all the time. Relief through repurposing content. At Gravitas, we help creators, marketers, and brands get the most out of all the content they produce. Repurposing content allows people to maximize their effort and extend the life of their best work instead of starting each time from zero across platforms, formats, and audiences. Ready to make your content work for you instead of against you?  Start repurposing now to unlock more reach with less effort. 

Let’s look at why content repurposing is important, what it is, and how we can do this effectively. 

Why Content Repurposing Matters 

• Time and Energy Saver: 

Quality content requires effort to create. Repurposing allows you to get extra value out of your existing creations, without recreating it from scratch every time. 

• Reach New People: 

Different formats reach different audiences. That blog post could become a LinkedIn carousel, a video or an email with each connecting with a different audience. 

• SEO: 

Creating authority talking about the same topics in different formats is good for rankings and better for your credibility. 

• Increased ROI: 

You have already done the work, so repurposing helps you to get more value out of your content. 

How to Repurpose Content 

Step 1: Select Evergreen Content. 

Choose content that is going to stay relevant for a reasonable amount of time, as opposed to timely/urgent content like reminders.  

Examples: Frequently asked questions, how-to, pillar blog posts 

Step 2: Formats. 

Identify content that can go to multiple types of formats based on the platforms your personas engage with. 

Blog → LinkedIn post, Twitter thread, infographic. 

Webinar → Blog summary or recap, short-form clips. 

Podcast → Audiograms, quotes, blog post. 

Step 3: Repurpose Smarter, Not Harder. 

Adapt your aim, visuals, layout etc. based on the platform you are on. What you do on LinkedIn will not have the same feel on Instagram. 

Step 4: Purposefully Share 

A content calendar makes it easier to plan when and where every version goes live—rather than sporadically, consistently will help you engage your audience further. 

Smart Ways to Repurpose 

• From Blogs: Carousels, email series, video scripts, infographics 
• From Podcasts: Quote cards, blog summaries, short clips 
• From Webinars: Newsletter content, slides, reels 
• From Reports: Infographics, tweet threads, lead magnets 

Popular Tools for Content Repurposing 

• Visuals & Design: Canva, Visme, Lumen5 
• Video & Audio: Descript, CapCut, VEED.io 
• Writing & AI: Notion AI, Grammarly, Jasper, ChatGPT 
• Scheduling Social: Buffer, Later, Hootsuite, Repurpose.io 

Real Examples 

Neil Patel turns one blog post into videos, carousels, and social content; he achieves more reach without more work. 

Optimizely turns their lengthy research projects into short little morsels for their glossary and educational series, which improves their SEO and also their engagement from their prospective customers.  

Tips to Repurpose Like a Pro 

• Look at your analytics to find content worth reusing 

• Break long pieces into smaller tips, quotes, or visuals 

• Spread it out—share parts of one topic over time 

• Keep platform behavior in mind. What works on Instagram won’t work on LinkedIn.
