For all those content creators out there, we’ve got some resolutions for you. Here are five new year’s resolutions to keep content creators engaged and creative in 2019.

1. Know your demographic

Knowing who consumes and enjoys your product is key to anyone trying to hustle. Keep an eye out on where your content is being shared, and those liking, sharing, and following your work. Knowing this will help you track the things you’re doing right and point you towards what you need to do in order to improve.

Analytics of your successful and unsuccessful posts can be the key to understanding how to effectively engage your followers.
