Weekly Social Media Schedule Template
Weekly Social Media Schedule Template
As you have gone through the process of running your business or application, I'm sure you've found that everything gets done in a more efficient and organized manner when you've scheduled out what you need to do.
Social media is an under-utilized tool that allows businesses to create and manage their audience and user base, while also demonstrating to that audience the different ways in which your business or app can be used.
So why shouldn't your social media, a vital way of marketing and growing your business, be scheduled out also? Communicating with those who can benefit from your product or service (who happen to be the very same people who's actions you can benefit from) is one of the most important things you can do for your business. If your consumers do not understand what you can offer, or how they can benefit from you, then how can you ever expect them to buy into what it is that you're offering?
Schedules make things easier, they make things set in stone, and when other things on your mental to-do list get left by the wayside, those that are on your schedule get accomplished.
Here is an incredibly easy weekly schedule template that anyone can use to plan out what it is that will be posted on your social media accounts. The platforms that you choose, the amount of times per day, and the times of when new posts will appear on your social media sites is entirely up to you. Some social platforms allow you to create posts that will be posted at a later date for you, so you don't even have to be there to post it! Others allow you to create drafts, so once the time comes to post something, you already have it completed and all you need to do is publish the content.
My advice: before you start to create your social media schedule and before you start posting anything else on your social media accounts, make sure that you have a clear understanding of what it is that you're trying to achieve with each of your social media accounts, then start to create your schedule and posts around the goals you have set for your different accounts.
Happy scheduling.
