Upgrade Your Content with Heart, Humor, and Humanity

When you opt-in to optimism you give other people permission to do the same. Fear is an easy motivator and we’re faced with a constant influx of ‘clickbait’ that stirs fear. As content creators, we have the option to not buy into a fear-based system.

We can choose to be the light with our content, and put positive messaging out into the world.

Yes, we’re still competing for everyone’s attention.

People have short attention spans. If you don’t capture their attention in the first 3 seconds of a video people will scroll to the next thing. Being light and positive does not mean being boring – keep your content pithy, interesting, visually pleasing, and maybe even daring.

It is our job to communicate in a way that elicits a response.

Start with energy, provide the information, and then close with something fun with a little more personality. People sense authenticity right away. The end goal of content must be to connect.

Dare to be defiantly present, bring your vulnerability to the forefront, and take risks.

When you create, it’s up to you to be daring. What will resonate with your audience? Just think, if you were scrolling on social media would you stop to watch what you’re creating right now? How can you make this more engaging?

Our role at Diagonal Media is to help you execute your content vision.

We balance the technical understanding of how to execute the work with helping you come up with creative ideas that push the envelope. You’re the expert, it’s our job to transform your story into engaging content.
