- What format is the planner in?
It’s an editable Excel file you can use in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.
- Do I need to be techy to use it?
Not at all — it’s super beginner-friendly with loads of detailed instructions included.
- What if I don’t post every day?
That’s fine! The planner works whether you post 3 or 5 times a week. You choose your rhythm. And if you post even less than that, then just pick your fave topics from that week. Instagram recommends 3 to 5 times a week is the ideal schedule and believe me with this planner - 5 will actually feel manageable! I post 5 times a week to 2 accounts and it only takes me about an hour to plan it all because of this!
- Can I reuse it next month?
Yes — once you get to the final week. Change the initial date at the top and start again!
But that will mean repeating myself?! GOOD! You should be repeating yourself. But remember, that first post was 3 months ago - no one will remember and you will have gained lots of new followers (because you're posting so consistently 😉). Besides the idea bank will have multiple ideas for the same topic, so you will have a fresh new way to talk about it! In 6 months I'm now up to about 300 ideas in my idea bank - it's impossible to run out of ideas!
- Will it tell me exactly what to say?
You’ll get clear instructions on where to type, lots of examples, and access to my real cake business topics — so you’ll never be stuck again. The only thing it can't do is make the reels for you....sorry!
