Frequently Asked Questions
Should we create completely different content for each platform?
Our platform strategy recommends a modular approach rather than completely different content - maintaining consistent core messages while adapting format, presentation, and supporting elements to match each platform's unique environment and audience expectations.
How do we know what content characteristics work best on each platform?
Our platform analysis framework helps you identify the specific content elements that drive performance on each platform - including format preferences, optimal length, visual style, tone, and interaction patterns - creating clear guidelines for adaptation.
What's the most efficient workflow for creating cross-platform content?
Our production framework recommends a foundation-first approach - creating core messages and assets first, then adapting to each platform in parallel rather than sequentially, with clear documentation of what elements change and what remains consistent.
How do we measure which content adaptations perform best?
Our measurement system helps you implement consistent performance tracking across platforms while accounting for platform-specific metrics, creating normalized comparison frameworks that identify which adaptation approaches drive the best results on each platform.
