The beauty of a social media calendar

Whether you’re a planner or not, a social media calendar can be a game changer for how you manage your social media.

Four reasons that a social media calendar should be necessity for all social media managers:    

  1. Avoid the social media vortex

  2. Gives inspiration for what to post everyday

  3. Saves time

  4. Offers structure

Have you ever found yourself logging into your professional social media accounts and getting distracted by feeds, reels, tweets, and more? Suddenly, you notice that a half-hour (or more!) has passed and you haven’t even posted or scheduled on your channels! This is the social media vortex. If you manage social media and have never been sucked in, we want to meet you and learn your secrets! For the rest of us, a calendar helps to offer some focus.

Even a seasoned social media manager can get bored or have an uninspired week. All museums go through lulls in programming and may not have any exciting projects to update. A social media calendar can give prompts for posting and help with a more fallow social media week.

Avoiding the vortex and offering prompts results in time savings and offers structure to your overall social media plan.
