How To Schedule The Perfect Post

A Simple Plan For Publishing Perfect Content

So, you want to schedule the perfect post? But how do you actually go about doing that? We all know that social media is important. But how do you actually go about scheduling the perfect post? It can be hard to juggle your responsibilities as a business owner, and sometimes it feels like there's never enough time in the day to get everything done. That's why we're going to provide you with some tips for scheduling posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Keep reading below! 

  • Create A Social Media Calendar

The first task you'll need to complete will be to create your social media calendar. This should include dates, holidays, and special events that are important to your business or might influence what you share for the month. It's also a good idea to keep track of any relevant trends that could impact the type of content you end up sharing. This will prevent you from sharing something that isn't relevant to your audience, and it will help you promote content that is timely.

  • Schedule The Perfect Post!

Once your calendar is set up, it's time to schedule the perfect post! But, don't do it all at once. It can be tempting to schedule a ton of posts in one day. But remember that Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter all have algorithms that can determine what you share. If you spam them with content they'll reduce the amount of times it's seen by your followers. Instead, schedule posts one day at a time to ensure that each piece of content has enough time to be shared multiple times.

  • Plan Ahead

This is especially important if you manage social media accounts for business pages. Always try to post content at the same time every day. If you don't, it can cause inconsistencies in which posts are shared and when. This can be very confusing for your followers, who may miss important posts because they weren't around when it was posted.

  • Have A Consistent Theme

It's also a good idea to keep a consistent theme for all of your posts. If you post something related to politics, make it clear that this is the theme of all upcoming posts. This will prevent your followers from being confused if they see a mix of content that doesn't relate to each other.

It's also important to remember that no two accounts are exactly alike! Your followers may find certain images more engaging than others. So feel free to play around with what you share and when! For example, if you use Buffer's app to schedule your posts, you can experiment with different days and times of day for each post. Try scheduling some at the beginning of the workday and some later in the afternoon or evening for a different perspective.

  • Always Include Promotions

Finally, don't forget to include promotions! In this day and age it's important to spread awareness about the different deals and sales you have going on. Include promotional posts around your usual content so that followers don't miss them! If you're doing a big promotion for Cyber Monday or Black Friday, why not adjust your schedule to ensure that you can promote it even more?

That's about it! Remember, don't spend all of your time scheduling posts at once. Instead, plan ahead and experiment with different content types for optimal social media engagement. So now that we know how to schedule the perfect post, let's all go and do it!
