Can I share something real with you? I just wrapped up filming my first batch of videos for 2025, and honestly… it felt like trying to dance in slow motion with two left feet! π
But you know what? That’s exactly how comebacks are supposed to feel, especially after a break. So if you’re also finding yourself stumbling a bit with your YouTube content or business right now, just know you’re in good company. We’re in this together!
First off – happy New Year! π I hope 2025 has been treating you kindly so far.
Whether you’re crushing those resolutions or still finding your rhythm, I’m cheering you on.
I’ve noticed something interesting lately. Many of my coaching clients (especially those amazing coaches on YouTube) keep running into the same challenge: coming up with fresh, engaging video ideas. So I wanted to share something special with you…
I’ve crafted a powerful AI prompt that’s been a game-changer for content brainstorming. Here it is:
The prompt:
I want to create educational YouTube content. Please help me brainstorm video ideas by following these steps:
1. My topic area is: [Insert your main subject/field]
2. My target audience is: [Insert audience level – beginner/intermediate/advanced]
3. The video format I prefer is: [Choose: long-form tutorials (10-20 min) / YouTube Shorts (< 1 min) / series]
4. My unique perspective/background is: [What makes your teaching style or experience different]
Please provide:
– 5 specific video ideas that include:
– Engaging title
– Hook/opening statement
– Main points to cover
– Suggested visual elements
– Potential keywords for SEO
For each idea, explain:
– Why it would be valuable to viewers
– How it stands out from existing content
– Possible challenges in creating it
– Ways to encourage viewer engagement
Additional considerations:
– Current trends in my field
– Common questions/pain points from learners
– Opportunities for series or connected content
– Ideas for complementary resources (worksheets, templates, etc.)
Please ask me clarifying questions about my topic, experience level, target audience, and content goals until you are 95% confident you can provide detailed, tailored video ideas that will resonate with my audience and perform well on YouTube. Take a deep breath and approach this step-by-step.
What I love about this prompt is how it digs deep into understanding your unique voice and audience needs. It’s not just about generating random ideas; it’s about creating content that truly resonates with your viewers.
Other quick updates from my end:
- I’m working on packing my coaching program with tested AI prompts to help you create better scripts, titles, and ideas that connect with your audience. Let the AI do the heavy lifting so you can go in and edit it, adapt it to your personality and get to a finished video faster.
- Keep an eye out for an exciting a new AI for YouTube video series coming soon on my channel!
- In the meanwhile, if you haven’t seen it yet, I created a tutorial on using AI for YouTube titles – it might be just what you need right now.
I’d love to hear from you!
What are your YouTube dreams for 2025?
Have you written them down? Sometimes just putting pen to paper makes them feel more achievable!
And I’m super curious – what are your thoughts on using AI in your content creation journey?
Here’s to creating content that matters, whether it’s perfectly polished or beautifully imperfect!
Keep shining,
Sara
