A content calendar that works for a team of two
Roles, handoffs and a weekly rhythm for small teams who cannot afford a content department.
By the Sosial team
Small teams do not need a content process, they need a rhythm. One hour a week beats a workflow diagram nobody follows.
Split the roles honestly
- One person owns ideas and drafting.
- One person owns approval and publishing.
- Both own the numbers once a month.
With two people, those hats must be separate or nothing gets a second opinion. With one person, the approval step becomes a 24-hour rule: draft today, publish tomorrow.
A weekly rhythm
- Monday, 30 minutes — pick the week's three posts from the backlog.
- Wednesday, 20 minutes — draft and put them in the queue.
- Friday, 10 minutes — approve, confirm times, note anything that worked.
Keep a backlog, not a calendar
Ideas arrive at inconvenient times. A running list of raw ideas — a note, a voice memo, a drafts column — means the Monday session is choosing, not inventing.
