Endless Content Ideas: How to Turn Customer Questions into Posts That Sell
How to Find Endless Content Ideas by Answering the Right Questions
Creating consistent, engaging content is one of the biggest challenges for online entrepreneurs. If you’ve ever stared at your screen thinking, “What should I post about today?”—you’re not alone.
But here’s the good news: The content ideas you’re searching for are already in front of you.
The secret? Start with the questions your audience is already asking.
Once you know their struggles, you can turn one question into multiple pieces of content that build trust, resonate deeply, and drive action.
Where Do You Find the Questions Your Audience Is Asking
1️⃣ In Captions and Comments on Content
Pay attention to what your followers say in comments or DMs. If they ask about your product’s features or benefits, those questions are golden content ideas.
Example: A skincare brand posts about a serum, and a follower asks, “How do I layer this with my moisturizer?” That’s a perfect topic for a carousel or short video.
2️⃣ Questions People Are Already Asking You
Think about the questions you get during sales calls, in customer service emails, or at in-person events. These are direct insights into what your potential customers need to know before purchasing.
Example: A meal prep service keeps getting asked, “How do I reheat the meals without drying them out?” That’s an opportunity to create content showing how easy it is to enjoy prepped meals.
3️⃣ In Online Communities
Scroll through Facebook groups, Reddit threads, or forums where your ideal customers hang out. What problems are they discussing that your product can solve?
Example: In a gut health group, people keep asking, “What foods can I eat that won’t upset my stomach?” A gut health brand could create content on how their products provide relief.
Turning One Question into Endless Content
Once you’ve identified a question, it’s time to stretch it into multiple pieces of content. Let’s break it into five types:
Storytelling: Share a personal or customer story that relates to the question.
Example: “Our customer Sarah used to feel bloated after every meal. When she tried our gut-friendly tea, it became part of her daily routine—and now, no more bloating!”
Educational: Provide actionable tips or a how-to guide.
Example: “3 ways to incorporate gut-friendly tea into your day for better digestion.”
Myths: Debunk common misconceptions about the topic.
Example: “3 myths about gut health you need to stop believing (and how our tea helps).”
Social Proof: Share a testimonial or success story.
Example: “How our gut-friendly tea helped Sarah go from bloated to balanced.”
Thought Leadership: Share your unique perspective on the question.
Example: “Why most gut health products don’t work (and what makes ours different).”
Applying Hooks to Each Content Piece
Once you’ve outlined your content ideas, make them irresistible with attention-grabbing hooks:
Storytelling: POV: You’re tired of feeling bloated after every meal.
Educational: I WISH I KNEW THIS SOONER: 3 ways to improve your digestion.
Myths: DID YOU KNOW most gut health teas don’t actually fix the problem?
Social Proof: HOW Sarah solved her bloating with just one cup a day.
Thought Leadership: 3 MISTAKES people make when trying to improve their gut health.
Repeat the Process for Endless Ideas
Here’s the best part: This process works for any question about your product. Every question can become five pieces of content. Add a hook and a call-to-action (CTA), and you’ve created a mini-campaign. Repeat this over and over, and you’ll never run out of content ideas again.
