#281 - Tips To Plan Content In Advance
Dedicated filming days
Plan filming/shooting days, and add those to your calendar. This could be a day a week, a day a month, or even just a couple hours that you put aside. It’ll work best if you’ve already got some sort of plan on what you’re filming, a couple of costume and makeup changes ready, and maybe even a few locations/backdrops that you’d like to shoot to help break up the fact that everything is being filmed/shot at once.
Editing all at once
While it certainly isn’t the most fun you could be having, we do recommend you mass-edit so you have finished content in your phone. Being able to post multiple times a day, while juggling your normal schedule, getting a bunch of content fully ready to just hit ‘post’ has been more effective for us in the long run.
Scheduling content times
Not all platforms will allow you to schedule your posting times. This is where the editing-in-advance tip comes in handy. If you already know when you want to post the videos you can easily set alarms and remind yourself to hit that button and make it public right when the alarm goes off. We recommend testing out post times and seeing when your audience tends to be the most active for you. This will take some trial and error, but remember, you can always archive or make your posts private and post them again once you find ideal times.
Reposting
TikTok tip: reposting your content on days where you don’t have content saved up, or you want to re-highlight something, is actually a great idea. Whether or not you choose to joke in the caption about it being a repost and deserving more attention or a throwback, it carries merit all the same.
