Consistency gets treated as the whole strategy. Post three times a week, never miss, and results will follow. Consistency matters, but it is the floor, not the plan. A feed of forgettable posts published reliably is still a feed of forgettable posts.

Start from what the audience wants

The useful question is not what do we want to say this week, but what does someone scrolling actually stop for. Usually it is one of three things: something genuinely useful, something that shows real work, or something that sounds like a person rather than a company.

Behind-the-scenes footage of an actual job outperforms a polished announcement more often than most brands expect, because it is evidence rather than a claim.

Plan in months, not posts

We work a month at a time, deciding the themes first and the individual posts second. It means production can be batched — one shoot covering several weeks — and it means the account is telling a story across a month instead of restarting every Monday.

Then measure something that matters. Saves, shares and direct messages tell you whether anyone cared. Likes mostly tell you the post was seen.
