Choose your platform.

There are a lot of different platforms out there, and you can choose those that are the best for your business and your personality. Not everybody is meant for live videos, and not everyone is good at writing blog posts. Find out what best suits you, and choose your platform wisely.

1. Choose the format that’s most comfortable for you.
   The best format is video—record yourself if you’re comfortable doing so. You can also go with writing text (e.g., a blog) or recording audio (e.g., a podcast).

2. You need a blog; create one on WordPress or another platform.
   WordPress is more flexible and has more options, but other solutions, like Medium.com, are much easier and have their own users that may read your content.

3. Create a fun page on Facebook.
