Creating compelling and consistent content is hard in the offseason sometimes. When games are not in swing, content requires a little more creativity to ensure you don’t get stuck in a rut. Content series that you can feature weekly are a great way to combat the rut though. Examples of a content series include synthroidnews.net information (lThrowback Thursday), training diaries (Training Tuesday), motivational series (Motivational Monday), etc.
The Brewers have a great series they feature every week called Monday Mind Games. Every Monday they post a fun baseball-themed puzzle for fans to solve; the answer to the puzzle is shared on Tuesday. I love this example from the Brewers because it’s different but also on brand with the baseball theme. Here’s a look at some of their latest puzzles:
Can you place the numbers 1 through 9 in the baseballs, so each side of the triangle adds up to 17? #MondayMindGames pic.twitter.com/N3PSGXNSLm

The takeaway here is simple: Content series can be a great way to create compelling content year-round. Don’t be afraid to think outside-the-box. If you come up with a great and creative idea, just find a way to tie it back to your brand like the Brewers did.
