Monday morning arrives quickly when you run a business, website or marketing campaign. Suddenly you need an article, social media posts, newsletters and promotional ideas—and the blank page is staring back at you.

Twenty or thirty minutes of Saturday planning can change that.

You don’t necessarily need to write anything today. Instead, create a simple list of topics you want to cover during the coming week. Consider questions customers frequently ask, developments within your industry, products or services you want to highlight and useful information your audience might appreciate.

Once you have several ideas, decide which ones deserve articles and which are better suited to shorter social posts.

This small exercise removes one of the biggest obstacles to consistent content creation: deciding what to write about every time you sit down to work.

It can also help you identify opportunities to connect several pieces of content around a common theme rather than publishing unrelated material throughout the week.

At Formula Write Solutions, we know consistent content becomes much easier when there’s a strategy behind it.

You don’t have to sacrifice your Saturday to marketing.

Grab a coffee, spend half an hour planning and then enjoy your weekend knowing Monday’s blank page already has something waiting for it.
