How to create content at scale | The Early Days by DULO (S3E2)
How to create content at scale with limited resources? Discussing clever content creation models with Kareem Mostafa of Tribetactics.
Kareem Mostafa (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kmostafa) is the co-founder of Tribetactics (https://www.tribetactics.com) - a bootstrapped content creation company which helps businesses maximise their efforts in producing compelling content across a wide range of media and platforms.
Naturally, our conversation gravitated towards the importance and value of having a solid content production and distribution processes. We went behind the scenes of how Kareem and his brother, with whom he co-founded Tribetactics, work to deliver valuable and contextually-relevant content to their clients. Furthermore, we touched on how one big piece of content can turn into multiple smaller pieces that can fuel your content plan for a month. We also talked about the importance of speed over perfection, financing the business, managing client expectations, business lessons from hip hop and much more.
