Social Media Content Calendar: Plan a Month in One Hour

Deciding what to post every day is exhausting. Planning a month at once takes about an hour and makes posting consistent and stress-free.

Step 1: set your content pillars (10 minutes)

Choose four themes that match your goals, for example:

• Show our work
• Teach something useful
• Build trust: reviews and team
• Offers and bookings

Step 2: check important dates (10 minutes)

List festivals, sale days and local events for the month using our festival marketing calendar.

Step 3: choose posting days (5 minutes)

Pick days you can keep, such as Monday, Wednesday and Friday for posts and reels, with stories most days.

Step 4: fill the calendar (25 minutes)

Assign a pillar and specific idea to each slot. Our content calendar generator creates a starting plan instantly.

Step 5: batch and schedule (10 minutes to plan)

Book one or two shoot sessions to record several reels at once, then schedule posts in Meta Business Suite.

Review monthly

At the end of the month, check which posts brought the most reach, saves and enquiries, and plan more like them.
