Social media content calendar: plan a month of posts in one afternoon

Posting regularly is what makes social media work, and it is also the first thing that slips when the team is busy. A social media content calendar lets you plan once and stay visible every week.

A simple monthly method

1. Pick three themes that matter to your customers, for example tips, behind the scenes and offers
2. Choose a rhythm you can keep, such as three posts a week
3. Fill the month in one session: write the texts, add images and links
4. Keep ideas as drafts and give them a date when the time is right

Plan and publish in one place

With OnlyContact social media management you see the month in a calendar, keep drafts on the side and choose for each post whether to publish now or at a set time. Posts go to your Facebook page and your Instagram business account; Instagram posts need an image. The dashboard shows what is planned for the coming week, and more networks are on the way.

Connect content and conversations

A good post leads to messages. Because comments, DMs and leads arrive in the same team inbox, you can see which content brings real enquiries and answer them quickly.

Review the month and adjust

At the end of each month, look at which posts led to messages and leads, not only to likes. Keep the themes that started conversations, drop the ones that did not and fill the next month with more of what worked. Twenty minutes of review saves many hours of guessing.

When you run out of ideas

Turn the questions your team answers every day into posts: each frequent question in WhatsApp or Instagram is a topic your audience cares about. Customer stories, before and after pictures and short how-to tips are also easy to prepare in advance.

Agencies keep a separate calendar for every client with workspaces. Online shops can plan product launches and campaigns months ahead; see our page for e-commerce.
