What is a Content Calendar?

A content calendar is a key tool for creators when building a steady stream of content for their brand. Essentially, a content calendar outlines the specific marketing assets, what platform they’ll live on, and when they will be posted. Content calendars help marketers plan ahead while also ensuring their content varies in theme and likeness.

Marketing Tip: New year, new strategy. Leverage the start of a new year to rethink your social media strategy. Take a look at your content from last year and determine what worked, what didn’t, and how you should move forward in 2021.
