📌 Making Content Planning Easy

In this episode, we’re diving into one of the biggest game-changers for any content creator: getting organized. Whether you’re juggling multiple platforms or just trying to post more consistently, having a solid content planning system can save you time, reduce Stress, and seriously level up your output.

🧠 Core Tips & Takeaways

1. Set a Realistic Posting Goal
   • Aim for 3–4 posts per week. Studio members get a ready-made weekly framework with ideas for 3 base videos + 1 bonus.
2. Plan by Themes
   • Organize content by day/theme to spark ideas and stay consistent.
     Example:
     • Monday = Tips
     • Wednesday = FAQs
     • Friday = Behind-the-scenes/Fun
3. Use a Planner or Notes App
   • Write down your weekly ideas and check them off. Use digital tools like Asana or just notes on your phone.
4. Batch Your Content Creation Time
   • Block time (e.g., 12–1 PM daily) to shoot. Set alarms. Avoid rescheduling endlessly.
   • Helen admits this is the hardest part — distractions happen, but consistency is key.
5. Stay Flexible
   • A weekly plan is more manageable than a monthly one. It also lets you pivot if a trend pops up.
6. Engage With Content
   • Scrolling is research, not wasted time! It fuels creativity and keeps you current with trends, humor, and new formats.

🎧 Listener Q&A

1. Voiceover Editing Tips
   • Yes, you can change your recorded voice in editing. Helen recommends using CapCut’s text-to-speech for more voice effect options.
   • Here’s the tutorial for the NARRATOR TREND

1. New Instagram Edits App vs CapCut
   • Instagram Edits is solid for quick, in-app editing (especially for green screen), but lacks key CapCut features like keyframes. CapCut still leads for more advanced edits. A full comparison tutorial is on the way
