3 Ways to build habits in your readers.
🫵 Make it about them
Think through the value exchange for your reader. Why should they engage with you? Is there a prize? Are you publishing their content? Are they part of a discussion that will achieve something they may want or need? What value are readers getting from you?
😨 Tap into the FOMO
FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) is a thing. Just like series on old school tv channels, you would run back on a Thursday to watch and desperately look forward to the following week. Do you give deadlines for your audience to engage with your articles or call-outs? Do you give your audience a hint as to what is coming up next time?
♾️ Keep it consistent
Don’t give up after a couple of attempts, habits take time to build. When people enjoy something the momentum grows. And remember, clear communication is also key. Always tell them clearly when, where, how they can engage, and what will happen next.
