The video shows how to repurpose YouTube content into different formats, such as blog posts, newsletters, and social media posts.

Here’s a breakdown of the process:

Step 1: Set up Airtable

Create an Airtable base with two tables:

1. Content Calendar: For YouTube links and transcripts
2. Links: For affiliate links and calls-to-action (optional)

In the Content Calendar table, include fields for:

• Video link (URL field)
• Transcript (Long text field)
• Links (Linked to the Links table)
• Status (Single select field with options: To Do, Generate Drafts, In Progress, Done)
• Fields for AI-generated content (Long text fields)

Step 2: Create a Make.com Automation

Set up a new scenario in Make.com with the following modules:

1. Webhook (trigger)
2. Airtable – Get Record
3. Airtable – Update Record (status to “In Progress”)
4. AI Content Generation modules (multiple)
5. Airtable – Update Record (final step)

Step 3: Configure Airtable Automation

Create an Airtable automation that triggers when the status field changes to “Generate Drafts.” This automation should use a webhook to start the Make.com scenario.

Step 4: Add Content to Airtable

To trigger the automation:

1. Add a new record in Airtable with the YouTube video link and transcript
2. Change the status to “Generate Drafts”

Step 5: Review and Edit Content

Once the automation completes:

1. Open the Airtable record
2. Review the AI-generated content
3. Edit and customize as needed

Step 6: Publish Content

• Copy the edited content
• Paste into your preferred platform (WordPress/Webflow/Ghost and Buffer for social media)
• Make final edits and publish

This automated process allows you to save time and quickly create multiple content drafts from a single YouTube video.
