January 2023 Social Media Calendar

by Really Social

New Year, New Me! It's great to set goals and make positive changes in the new year! Whether it's improving your physical health, learning a new skill, or making progress in your career/business, there are so many ways to make the most of the new year. And a social media content calendar is the right tool if you’re looking for help with planning and organizing the content you want to post on your social media accounts (it’s one of our fav tips at Really Social - if you want to level up your social media game, you have to start planning and organizing your goals!)

But before we can jump to our social media calendar proposal, make sure you go through the following steps and business/social media-related questions:

  1. Determine your goals:

    What do you want to achieve with your social media presence? Do you want to increase brand awareness, drive website traffic, or generate leads? Setting clear goals will help you plan content that aligns with your objectives.

  2. Identify your target audience:

    Who are you trying to reach through social media? Understanding your audience will help you create content that resonates with them and meets their needs.

  3. Plan out your content:

    Decide on the types of content you want to post and how often you want to post it. Consider including a mix of content types, such as text-based posts, images, videos, and live streams.

  4. Schedule your content:

    Use a tool like Hootsuite or Buffer to schedule your content in advance. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your content is consistent and timely.

  5. Monitor and adjust:

    Pay attention to how your content is performing and make adjustments as needed. Try out different types of content and see what works best for your audience.

By following the above steps, you will be able to create a social media content calendar that helps you elevate your presence and achieve your goals in the new year.
