2. What is Content Leverage?
“Content leverage is using every piece of content in
multiple ways to get the highest return on investment
from each piece of content.”
~ Content Marketing Institute

It is run by YOU or with less than 5 employees.
The business has an active blog.
Content is shared online on social networks, forums etc.
You have limited budget.

5. Guest Blogging
Use a couple of old blog posts to create a new post for
guest blogging. If the old ones were time sensitive,
research and add new data. Publish on high authority
and niche relevant blogs.
Budget - $30 to $100 per post (if outsourced)
DIY
6. PPT Presentation
The presentation you are viewing is an example of
content leveraging. You need MS PowerPoint. Create PPT
and share it online via SlideShare, SlideBoom, Google
Docs and others.
Budget - $50 to $100 per PPT (if outsourced)

7. Videos
Avoid self-promotional videos. Create videos on your
small business related concepts and share them via
platforms like YouTube, Daily Motion and others.
Budget - $20 to $70 per video
(better to get professional service)
8. Create PDF
Take a bunch of related blog posts. Edit them. Create a
PDF file on that topic. Upload on free file sharing sites.
Budget - DIY
9. Create eBook
This is an extension of the „PDF‟ concept. Use blog posts
and research work to create an eBook. Keep it between
30-50 pages. Use upsell. Either give it for free on your
blog in exchange of name & email id (list building) or
upload on eBook sharing sites or sell on Amazon.
Budget: Could be a mixture of DIY and professional eBook
development. Estimate budget is around $100.
10. Infographic
Graphically represent blog posts via an Infographic.
Really awesome for concept-based information sharing.
You can share them repeatedly on social media,
webinars, get bloggers to embed them on their blogs
etc.
Budget: $100 to $300 per Infographic
Don‟t DIY unless very sure. DIY tools – Visual.ly,
Easel.ly
11. Newsletter
Some bloggers „rent‟ out their huge email list to
business owners for paid advertisement, known as „solo
ads‟. Contact some solo ad providers (use Warrior
Forum) and schedule a release. Either use old blog posts
or create a new sales pitch.
Budget: $100 to $250 (depends on estimated clicks)
12. Facebook Notes
Republish few blog posts via FB Notes. Keep sharing.
Don‟t forget to credit original source.
Budget: $0
13. Article Directories
Rewrite old blog posts and submit with article
directories. Google for a directory lists.
Budget: $150 for a batch of 30 posts

excellently to communicate with readers. Host webinars
once a month, record and upload on video sharing sites.
