Content Strategy Patterns

Content Calendar Workflow

1. Plan — define themes for the week (Monday: educational, Wednesday: behind-the-scenes, Friday: engagement)
2. Create — write the source content in long form
3. Adapt — let

   multiChannelPost

   handle per-platform adaptation, or customize manually
4. Schedule — use

   bulkSchedule

   to queue the full week
5. Monitor — check

   socialAnalytics

   48 hours after each post
6. Iterate — double down on content types that perform well

Launch Campaign

1. T-7 days: Teaser posts (Instagram Stories, Twitter, LinkedIn)
2. T-1 day: Countdown posts + email announcement
3. Launch day: Simultaneous multi-channel post via

   multiChannelPost

4. T+1 hour: Engage with comments and shares across all platforms
5. T+24 hours: First analytics pull with

   socialAnalytics

6. T+7 days: Performance report comparing platforms

Evergreen Content Recycling

1. Identify top-performing posts from

   socialAnalytics

2. Refresh content (update stats, change images, adjust hooks)
3. Re-schedule to different time slots via

   bulkSchedule

4. Post to platforms that didn't see the original content
5. Track whether recycled content performs comparably

A/B Testing

1. Create two variations of the same content (different headlines, images, or CTAs)
2. Post variant A to half of platforms, variant B to the other half
3. Wait 48-72 hours for engagement data
4. Pull

   socialAnalytics

   for both variants
5. Use

   socialAnalyticsCompare

   to determine the winner
6. Re-post the winning variant to all remaining platforms

Analytics Interpretation

Key Metrics

• Impressions — how many times content was displayed
• Reach — unique accounts that saw the content
• Engagement rate — (likes + comments + shares) / impressions
• Click-through rate (CTR) — clicks / impressions
• Follower growth — net new followers in the period

Benchmarks (general)

• Good engagement rate: 1-3% (Twitter), 3-6% (Instagram), 2-4% (LinkedIn)
• Good CTR: 0.5-1.5% (organic social), 1-3% (email)
• Healthy follower growth: 1-5% monthly

Red Flags

• Engagement rate dropping below 1% consistently
• High impressions but zero clicks (content not compelling enough)
• Follower count flat or declining (content strategy needs refresh)
