We are already into 2025, and it’s still a perfect time to refresh your social media strategy. You’ve likely heard of the concept of a “New Year, New You,” but what about your socials? They deserve a makeover too. Let’s hit the reset button and Marie Kondo your strategy—focusing on what sparks joy (and engagement). Ready to get started? Let’s dive in!
Take a moment to look back at your 2024 posts. Go through your content and pick your top three favorites. These should be the posts that had you thinking, “Okay, this was GOOD,” or the ones that brought the most traction.
Ask yourself:
This exercise will help you identify the key elements of your content that resonated most with your audience. By using these themes as a foundation for 2025, you can ensure your strategy remains aligned with what works. Remember, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel—just focus on what’s already working while leaving behind what isn’t.
Creating a content calendar doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With a little planning, you can easily map out your social media posts for the coming months. Here’s a simple, step-by-step guide to help you create a quarterly content plan.
1. Map Out Big Moments
Start by noting all the key events happening in the year— launches, client openings, or seasonal campaigns. These are your anchors for the quarter. They’ll guide your content creation and keep you on track.
2. Identify Content Themes
Your content should follow a theme. Aim for 3-5 core themes that will guide your posts. This ensures you stay consistent with your brand while covering a variety of topics. Themes will help you avoid getting lost in hyper-specific subjects and keep your content well-rounded.
For example:
3. Batch Create Your Content
Time is precious, so why not make the most of it by batch creating content? Set aside a few hours (or a day) to create content for the week or month ahead. I recommend task batching—create all your graphics in one sitting, write all your captions in another, and shoot your videos at once. This approach allows you to focus on the big-picture goals while ensuring consistency.
Batch creating not only saves time but also gives you a clearer view of your overall content flow.
Now that you’ve got your content strategy and calendar set up for 2025, it’s time to take action! Start by revisiting your top-performing posts from last year (+ January 2025), organize your big moments, and create content in batches. Need more help or want to dive deeper into content planning?
