📅 Content Strategy 101 - 30-Day Planning System

Why You Need a Content Strategy

Posting randomly = inconsistent results. Planning ahead = predictable growth.

Benefits of Planning:

  • ✅ Never run out of content ideas
  • ✅ Post consistently (algorithm loves this!)
  • ✅ Save 10+ hours per month
  • ✅ Measure what works, improve continuously
  • ✅ Batch create content (way more efficient)

The 5 Content Pillars Framework

Don't post randomly. Organize content into 5 core themes (pillars) that define your brand.

Example: Fitness Coach

  • Pillar 1: Workouts (30%): Exercise tutorials, workout plans
  • Pillar 2: Nutrition (25%): Meal prep, macro guides
  • Pillar 3: Mindset (20%): Motivation, overcoming plateaus
  • Pillar 4: Lifestyle (15%): Behind-the-scenes, daily routines
  • Pillar 5: Offers (10%): Coaching programs, ebooks

Your Turn: Define YOUR 5 pillars based on your niche and audience needs.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Mistake #1: Too Much Promotional Content

80/20 rule: 80% value, 20% promotion. Nobody wants a walking ad.

❌ Mistake #2: No Consistency

Posting daily for 2 weeks, then disappearing = algorithm death. Better: 3x/week consistently.

❌ Mistake #3: Ignoring Analytics

Review data weekly. Adjust monthly. Don't just "post and hope."

❌ Mistake #4: Perfectionism

Done > Perfect. A "good enough" post today beats a "perfect" post never.
