How to Plan a Month's Worth of Content in Advance

Today, we’re going to talk about how you can plan a month’s worth of content in advance! So if you’re a busy content creator and are wanting to get ahead on your content, this podcast episode is for you.

Step #1: Establish your content pillars

A content pillar (or niche) is a specific topic or segment you create content around. And surprise! You can have more than one content pillar.

The Content Creatives Podcast mission statement is to: empower creatives to DISCOVER, GROW, AND OWN their brand. Our content pillars break down the lifecycle of aspiring influencers and creatives:

• Discover: stories and tips to help other creatives figure out who they are and how to get started
• Grow: advice on learning, implementing strategy, and creating on each platform (Instagram, TikTok, blogging, etc) as well as learning how to monetize your influence
• Own their brand: encouraging others to be confident in who they are, take their brand to the next level, and expand their reach  

Step #2: Determine how many times per week you want to post

Figuring out a good posting schedule is paramount to planning content in advance! Knowing this number helps you build your outline (in the next step) and having a consistent posting schedule can help with your audience expectations and retention.

Here are some questions to ask yourself when determining how many times per week (on average) you'd like to post: 

• What are my content pillars, and how many do I have?
• Do I want to speak to every content pillar every week?
• How much time goes into each post (including planning the photos, taking them, editing, writing the copy, posting, and engaging)?
