How to plan a month of social content in one afternoon
A practical afternoon workflow for planning a whole month of posts without burning out.
Start with four content pillars: tips, stories, offers and community. Most accounts do well with a simple mix, and pillars stop you staring at a blank calendar every morning.
Next, gather ideas for ten minutes. Look at questions customers ask, comments on past posts, and notes from your team. Put every usable idea in one list before you judge any of them.
Then fill the calendar week by week, not day by day. Place one pillar per day, leave two days a month empty for timely posts, and check that no channel gets five offers in a row.
Finally, draft the first week properly and outline the rest. Outlines are enough for later weeks — you will refine them when the week arrives, and your future self will thank you for the head start.
