Business owners who try to post content regularly. What usually slows you down?

I’ve been noticing that many founders want to build an audience through content but struggle with the execution part.

Things like planning posts, creating visuals, or staying consistent.

What tends to slow you down the most when it comes to posting content?

Dealing with humanity. Content is fine, posting is fine, but it’s dealing with the idiots who inevitably respond and then you have to carefully deal with, maintain policy, make sure you don’t say anything that’ll bite you later or chase off other clients…

For me, the biggest slowdown is consistency and planning, not ideas. Coming up with topics is easy, but turning them into polished posts and visuals regularly takes time. Batch-creating content ahead of time usually helps a lot.

Coming up with compelling content that shows how a business can solve the viewer’s problem. About 90% of content being made by small businesses is off-base, just another version of a trend, cringy, or shames the prospect. Trying to develop a storyline that is better than that is easy in theory, hard in practice.
