I know this is your wet dream. But no, you cannot really automate 100% of your content work.
You can automate 70%-80% of planning, research, and critique.
The moment your audience gets a whiff of slop, you lose trust and connection immediately.
If you don't care to write it, why should I care to read it?
"Is PR worth it?"
"What do I get from spending on PR?"
and the all-time favorite "PR doesn't do sh$t for sales."
Don't get confused.
You will get some clicks.
You may get some followers.
But the important thing you get is trust.
No amount of ad spend gets you that.
@Mike_nike7 Gary V also always talks about himself as the most private public person.
He’s out there all the time, yet very little is known about his personal life.
Myth No.3: "I'm a private person."
First, unless you're fully anonymous, people can and will look you up. Even anons have a reputation and brand, think Banksy or punk6529.
Second, nobody suggests that you spill your guts and share your seed phrase on your socials.
You want to build a public presence that shows that you're a trustworthy expert in your field. You can absolutely keep your private life private.
Privacy is not an excuse not to do content or be out there.
I hate to break it to you, it will not get "lighter" in a couple of months.
If your business is gaining traction, if you’re getting ready to launch or raise, it will only get busier.
Dedicating time to comms is like having a kid. It’s never a good time. You just do it.
