like you just can't come up with ideas for videos?

On a channel like Sifu Dan's that can be a problem,

considering we upload every single day.

So, today I'm gonna offer five tips

that can help you generate new ideas.

Tip number one, and that is plan it out in advance.

Now, with this channel we actually have

what we all a content calendar that says

what type of video we're gonna release each day.

For example, on Monday we'll release a copywriting video.

And on Tuesday there'll be a sales video.

This helps so that when we go

to our shoot days we know what type

of content we need to create, and we stay on track.

Number two is research other popular ideas and innovate.

Not all of the best ideas are original.

For example, take Apple, they did not invent the cellphone.

It was already an existing idea.

They took that, and then made the iPhone,

which was their own product.

You can do that with your own needs.

Say you can't come up with a video idea, look on YouTube.

What's popular, and what's trending?

Type in that idea, and come up with your own ideas

from what's already out there.

Tip number three is to just completely

take your mind off of coming up with an idea.

And go for a walk, go play a sport, go to the gym.

Do something physical that doesn't

require so much mental bandwidth.

You can really burn yourself out by trying to come up

with ideas over, and over, and over again.

You can set a certain time limit

for you to take that mental time,

but be sure to give yourself physical breaks.

Before you know it the creative

juices will be flowing naturally.

Number four is ask your audience.

A lot of the times you'll see Sifu will say

leave a comment below if you enjoyed this video.

We started doing more copywriting videos

because people started saying they really

enjoyed learning about copywriting.

If you want to know what your audience

wants don't be afraid to ask them.

Say give us a thumbs up if you enjoyed this.

Any kind of feedback is feedback that you can take

to consider videos that you want to make in the future.

Number five is to remake one of your own videos.

Now, I don't mean doing a video on the same topic

you did last week just because it didn't get as many views.

I mean taking a topic that you did a while ago

and reflecting upon it with your new experience,

and considering how your perspective has changed

since you first uploaded that video.

This is a good tip to do, especially if that video did well.

Consider the title, consider what people

are saying in the comments.

Come up with new content that came from that old video.

And number six as a bonus tip would be just to upload

something that you absolutely love to talk about.

For example, on this channel lots

of people advised Sifu Dan not to upload videos

on Wing Chun because they weren't in the business world.

If you actually take a look those videos

are some of our most viewed content on this channel.

You can tell just from the passion in Dan's voice

that he loves making these videos.

And they have gotten an incredible

response from our audience, even if it

isn't involved in the business world.

People love hearing other people

talk when they are enthused.

And that's something that you shouldn't shy away from.

So those are a few tips that we use here

at Dan Lok Productions every single day.
