Most calendars are abandoned after week three, and it’s usually because the calendar was built for a team twice as big. With five channels and daily posting, and a designer who was never asked to consider the constraint of time, the calendar was doomed to fail.
A calendar that survives is a smaller document. Fewer slots, tied to things actually happening, with a named owner beside each row and a gap left for the week something goes wrong.
Calendar templates simplify the planning of celebrations for your audience, so the only thing the template requires from you is the dates. That template fills itself with filler dates for you: motivational Mondays, national days, a poll on Friday because Friday needs something to fill its day, etc. None of that is relevant to your business so the posts are clearly filler, and the person posting knows it. Posts planned around dates you give will be actual posts with actual value.
A generated calendar is a complete failure. It does not take into consideration your launch dates, holiday coverage, or the fact that your only photographer works Tuesdays. It generates a month of themed days and leaves you to figure out in Week 2 that half the rows need an asset that nobody can create.
We look at how many hours of free time the quarterly diary publisher has as well as what is the quarterly diary has to offer, to determine which of the two numbers to use. With that number, we determine the size of the calendar. It is only now that we decide on which channels, which formats, and which slots we wish to reserve on a recurring basis.
The calendar is in a spreadsheet format so you can copy rows directly into a spreadsheet or a programming tool of your choice. Each row has hook lines and asset notes as placeholders (so there’s no delay waiting for photos), and, of course, we will move rows if you notify us a launch has been repositioned. Copy for each slot is an additional order, priced per word.
One rate, whatever the format: $10 per 100 words. You are paying for the writer’s time and judgement, so the price scales with the words rather than with a package tier.
| Typical social-media calendar | Words | Writing | Fee (1%) | You pay |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| One-month calendar | 1,200 | $120 | $1.20 | $121.20 |
| Quarterly calendar | 2,500 | $250 | $2.50 | $252.50 |
| Quarterly calendar with drafted copy | 5,000 | $500 | $5 | $505 |
The writer receives 100% of the writing price. Our 1% fee is added on top of it, and 0.5% is donated to tree planting. Full pricing breakdown.

Yes. Tell us the volume and cadence and we keep the same writer on the account so the voice stays consistent. The rate does not change with volume.
Only if you choose to. The plan provides you with rows with dated spaces and a hook line for each. Copy is completed for each slot, and cost is determined by word count just like any other text, so a quarter of drafted posts will cost much more than the plan.
A quarter of my time for structure. A month for detail. The remaining time is required for changes to the launch date, or the channel you dropped, or for the writing of the six month calendar. Building a three month calendar twice is faster than the writing of a six month calendar.

Thirty captions. About eight of them are a single sentence and those are the ones that actually performed. Whoever wrote these understands that the photo is actually doing the work. No hashtags were used. Half of their one percent fee goes to planting trees, which our customers actually cared about more than we expected.
The first set was warmer and used a lot of exclamation marks, more like our tone. I sent a few examples of our tone and the revisions matched, which should have been included in the brief. Well done for turning it around in two included rounds.
This makes sense at the current price based on batch pricing. However, the generally low hit rate means that about twenty of these are very good and the rest trend toward serviceable filler. Very good steam balls are, and always have been, appreciated, and the second steeping one was one of the best examples, receiving more comments than anything we have posted.
