I Keep Reading extensively, Exploring tons of mediums daily, Scrolling for hours, Asking questions myself, and traveling. I guess that keeps me motivated.

@janak_patel56 Exactly, it's also one of my habits to get inspired.
Create a series for your content: like post ABC on mondays, and XYZ on tuesdays and so on. That way you will have more content for the brand you with. Also, keep an eye for catchy content from other brands. Do competitors research and check what's working for them and try to create a better version for your brand.

@jerryton_surya can relate!
It is a day in and day out, I think research gives about 50 to 70% of whats coming up and the rest is framing and being creative in presenting it
As a marketer, creativity comes in handy with interactivity. I incorporate different ideas in interactive content types, such as Quizzes, to keep up with creativity.
For example- create quizzes like "what human emotion am I." This is both creative and interactive, as it grabs attention and drives engagement.
You can also create fun and customized quizzes using Outgrow's Quiz Maker https://outgrow.co/quiz-maker/

@emily_jose very helpful, thanks!
Brands can have different approaches to current events. Being ingenious and having a child-like approach to things makes it easier to create powerful content that makes routine interesting :)

@medinaluis Great advice, sometimes we think too complicated :)
Creative block can happen to anyone. As for me, I take a break until my mind is ready. Looking at other people's amazing work challenges me and inspires me to come up with something even better. 💚

@mgbespada I think knowing yourself and being okay with the situation is really helpful to overcome the creative block!
Always checking and learning the most updated things. Don't narrow your sights, knowing things out of your major, approaching to the trends.
