Pick the handful of things you talk about, set your pace, and the planner lays out a whole month of posts — balanced across your pillars, ready to fill in. Stop deciding what to post at 9pm every night.
Most owners and creators don't fall behind because they can't make content — they fall behind because every single day starts with a blank page and the same question: what do I post today?
Batching kills that question. You make all the decisions once, in one focused sitting, while you're in the zone — then you just execute. The trick is starting from your pillars: the three or four things you actually want to be known for. Everything you post is one of them.
This planner does the sorting. Name your pillars, pick how often you post, and it builds a balanced month so no single theme takes over. Fill the slots now or shuffle until it feels right.
No login, nothing saved to us — your plan stays in this browser. Set it up, fill what you can, and print it to stick on the wall.
Pillars are the themes you want to be known for — most creators run with three or four. Give each one a name and a color, then choose how often you post.
Most people plan a full month — four weeks.
Each slot is one post, color-coded to its pillar and spread so no theme piles up. Tap a pillar tag to switch it, pick a format, and jot the hook. Empty slots are fine — even a one-line idea beats a blank calendar.
Tip: print to PDF and you've got a one-page plan for the fridge, the team, or your notes app. Nothing you type ever leaves this browser.
A plan only helps if you actually run it. Three habits that turn a board into posts.
In the planning sitting, only write the angle — "the mistake everyone makes with X." The full caption is a separate, faster job once the idea's locked.
Watch the balance chips. If "Promote" creeps past a quarter of your month, swap a couple slots — people follow you for the value, not the pitch.
Once the board's full, film or write three or four at a time by format — all your Reels in one block, all your carousels in another. Context-switching is the time killer.
