Getting Started
Q. How do I get started using Content Marketing Magic?
A. Before you start the content creation process, be sure to
fill in your presets. Go to the “My Preset” link in the Automatic Writing box.
Fill out your Preset Group Name. Each field is fairly self-explanatory. The
point of this section is to offer an easy way to plug-in routine information
about you, your business, and your products. I recommend filling out a separate
preset for each product or service. Once you’ve completed the sections, click
on the submit button to save it.
Above the “My Preset” link is the “My Writing” link. As you
accumulate more content, you will go back through this list of your work. One
of our upcoming tutorials will include how to repurpose your existing content
to cut down your production time.
Starting a New Project.
Start with the content marketing guide to help you plan your
strategy for using content to achieve your goal. If you already have a plan of
action documented and ready to go, click on automatic writing in the dashboard.
It’s the first option in the user panel. Click “New Writing”.
You must give your content and name foremost. Once you scroll
through the list of the writing examples and choose your preference. For
example, if you’re making a VSL, choose the video scripts option. Move down to
the selected template of the writing option and review the samples that are
available.
Remember, we are continuing daily to add new templates to
each category. One of the pleasant aspects of this system is you can see the
entire process before you start. You can review each template in the category
that you’re working in. Once you selected the catalog and the template, you can
scroll down and click on the next step button.
There are no surprises as you go. This is especially
important if you are using a long-form-content template with multiple sections.
Choose the present that is appropriate for your content. Once you’ve reviewed
the template, go to step two. If you don’t fill in the optional fields, it will
be filled with our default value. This is why I recommend first creating your
preset. Now click the create writing button.
Fill in the details as you go from block to block. You can
save your work and come back to it later if you need to. One option that seems
to work well for those who like to multitask is to open several tabs as you
work. You can flip between your reference materials and your content page with
no problem. Be sure to save your work as you go to avoid any problems.
When you’re done, you’ll be able to find your work in the
“My Writing” section. You can access that content by clicking on the link in
the title. You’ll also be able to see the creation date or update of each piece
at a glance. You can click on the three dots to the right of your content
selection and a drop-down menu will allow you to continue editing or download
your work. You can also delete the content from there. You can choose between a
text file and the PDF for your download.
There is also an option for rebuilding your writing. This
allows you to start from scratch while keeping your presets. This brief set of
instructions should be enough to get you started. If you’re new to content
writing, start small. Avoid the long-form templates initially. Emails and
500-word articles, Video Sales Letters and Google and Facebook ads offer good
solid start to getting used to the process.
Using Dragon Naturally Speaking
If you are looking to improve your production speed and efficiency, I would recommend getting Dragon Naturally Speaking. This dictation software works seamlessly with the Content Marketing Magic app. You will move from section to section, creating new content or editing existing placeholders. This is not a free program, but it is valuable.
Another powerful tool in your arsenal that comes well
recommended is Wordtune. This is one of the very few AI powered apps that
actually lives up to the hype. Wordtune allows you to highlight a sentence or
paragraph and prompts the artificial intelligence to offer multiple suggestions
based on what you’ve written.
You can use the tool for rewriting content that you have
already created; making the material completely new. It is also great in a
crunch when you’re having issues with finding the right way to say something.
Wordtune has its own editor. It allows you to rewrite in casual or formal
styles as well.
