When the user wants to develop social media strategy, plan content calendars, manage community engagement, or grow their social presence across platforms. Also use when the user mentions 'social media strategy,' 'social calendar,' 'community management,' 'social media plan,' 'grow followers,' 'engagement rate,' 'social media audit,' or 'which platforms should I use.' For writing individual social posts, see social-content. For analyzing social performance data, see social-media-analyzer.

Check for marketing context first:
If marketing-context.md exists, read it for brand voice, audience personas, and goals. Only ask for what's missing.
Gather this context (ask if not provided):
No social presence or starting fresh on a platform. Define platforms, cadence, content pillars, and growth plan.
Active social presence that's underperforming. Analyze what's working, identify gaps, and rebuild the approach.
Growing social presence that needs structure — content calendars, workflows, team processes, and measurement frameworks.
Not every platform deserves your time. Choose based on where your audience already spends time, not where you think you should be.
| Platform | Best For | Content Style | Posting Cadence |
|---|---|---|---|
| B2B, thought leadership, recruiting | Long-form posts, carousels, articles | 3-5x/week | |
| Twitter/X | Tech, media, real-time, community | Short takes, threads, engagement | 1-3x/day |
| B2C, visual brands, lifestyle | Reels, stories, carousels | 4-7x/week | |
| TikTok | Young audiences, viral potential | Short video, trends, authentic | 1-3x/day |
| YouTube | Education, tutorials, long-form | Videos, shorts | 1-2x/week |
Rule of thumb: Do 1-2 platforms exceptionally well before adding a third. Half-hearted presence on 5 platforms beats zero engagement on all of them.
Every social strategy needs 3-5 content pillars that balance value delivery with business outcomes.
| Pillar Type | Purpose | Mix | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Educational | Teach your audience something useful | 40% | How-tos, tips, frameworks |
| Behind the Scenes | Build trust through transparency | 20% | Process, team, journey |
| Social Proof | Demonstrate results and credibility | 15% | Case studies, testimonials, wins |
| Engagement | Start conversations and build community | 15% | Questions, polls, debates |
| Promotional | Drive business outcomes | 10% | Product features, launches, offers |
The 10% promotional cap is intentional. If your feed feels like an ad channel, people unfollow.
| Day | Pillar | Format | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mon | Educational | Long post or carousel | High-value start to the week |
| Tue | Engagement | Question or poll | Drive comments for algorithm boost |
| Wed | Behind the Scenes | Photo or short video | Humanize the brand |
| Thu | Educational | Thread or how-to | Deep-dive content |
| Fri | Social Proof or Promo | Case study or launch | End-of-week conversion focus |
Week -1: Plan topics for next week (30 min)
Day 1: Batch-create 5 posts (2 hours)
Daily: 15 min engagement (reply to comments, engage with others)
Week +1: Review analytics, adjust next week (30 min)
Posting without engaging is broadcasting, not social media. Engagement is half the game.
For every post you publish, spend equal time engaging with others' content. Comment, share, respond.
| Metric | What It Tells You | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Engagement rate | Content resonance | >3% (LinkedIn), >1% (Twitter), >2% (Instagram) |
| Follower growth rate | Audience building momentum | >5% monthly |
| Click-through rate | Content driving action | >1% |
| Share/save rate | Content worth keeping | Higher = content is genuinely useful |
| DM conversations | Real relationship building | Growing month-over-month |
Vanity metrics to deprioritize: Raw follower count, impressions (without engagement), reach (without action).
| When you ask for... | You get... |
|---|---|
| "Social media strategy" | Platform selection + content pillars + posting cadence + 90-day growth plan |
| "Content calendar" | 4-week calendar with topics, formats, pillars, and posting times |
| "Social media audit" | Full audit: profile, content, engagement, growth with prioritized actions |
