CONTENT CALENDAR - Table: Day / Platform / Format / Topic / Hook (first line) 2. PILLAR ROTATION - Ensure variety across the week (don't repeat same type back-to-back) 3. FORMAT MIX - Carousel, text post, video, story, thread (vary for algorithm) 4. ENGAGEMENT STRATEGY - 2 posts designed to spark comments, 1 designed for shares 5.
