How to never run out of content ideas: I asked 10 Content Rockstars
Content is king and LinkedIn is the platform to be! ????
LinkedIn is content home to some of the world's business leaders like Bill Gates, Richard Branson and Gary Vaynerchuk.
3 millions users share content on Linkedin on a weekly basis. With this frequency, it can be a challenge sometimes to come up with content ideas.
I asked 10 content rockstars, how do they come up with their content ideas.

First I have a daily theme. Monday is a cheerleading start of the week type post Tuesday is business tips, Wednesday is something story related plus a quote.
Thursday is thankful / gratitude, Friday is a weekend message. Next I repurpose stuff but in a very round about way. Never post same thing twice. A lot of it just comes to me like if I’m sitting on the couch I’ll write 2/3 posts or thoughts down and then put it together.
I love writing so I gave a notepad on my phone that I’m constantly adding too.

"Life. I have a random conversation, sparks and idea and write it down in Evernote. Then if I don’t have the whole idea baked I set it down and come back to it. Many times I literally wake up and think of something. Consistent and messy is better than perfect."

"When it comes to content writing for me, it's about being as real as possible. Story telling from my own perspective. It's always based on my own personal experiences and also from my own thought processes. I also like to add elements of creativity thru visuals like images, documents and videos. Because if people do meet up with me in person or virtually, they can match the online me with the offline me!"
For me, the best content comes from the questions that your prospects and clients have. I take notes every time someone asks me a question.
