🌠 Your 2021 Content Calendar… Waiting For You?

Ever wake up one morning and think to yourself:

“Jeepers self, if only I could map out exactly what is do when and where during the remainder of the year!”

If so you’re definitely not alone – smart folks know that pacing oneself and ensuring that you’re not blindsided by not having necessary promos done at the right time.

That’s why you’ll love the following (and be sure to return back once you’re done so you can benefit from the additional resources I uncovered for you):

There, you’ll discover goodies like:

“…What is a content calendar?
Let’s start with a clear definition. A content calendar is a schedule of all the content you’re going to publish. It’s also known as a content marketing calendar.

It shows what content you’ll publish and when on a weekly, monthly, or quarterly basis, depending on your content strategy.

It’s also worth noting that a content calendar is different from a content strategy. A content strategy covers what content you’re going to post while a content calendar is simply a tool for mapping out when it will be published and who’s responsible for it. There is a bit of overlap between the two, but their objectives are different. We often see the terms used interchangeably so we wanted to make that distinction clear to avoid any confusion. We cover the basics of what a content strategy is and how to build one below, too….”

and

“…A content calendar shows all the tangible media (e.g., written, visual, downloadable) you need to create over a period of time.

When looking at yours, you should be able to answer most of these questions:

What will you produce and publish?

Do you have enough content to publish?

What channels will they publish on?

Is it owned or paid?

What content formats are you focusing on?

Who will be responsible for creation (writing/design/video)?

When will be the deadline for each piece of content?

Do you already plan content for major events and holiday seasons?…”

and more!
