Social Media Content System
90-day calendar, hook bank, repurposing workflow and reporting, with Canadian advertising disclosure and privacy requirements built in.
Written against
- · Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL)
- · Competition Act — misleading representations and testimonial disclosure
- · Ad Standards Canada — Influencer Marketing Disclosure Guidelines
- · Copyright Act (Canada) — licensing, moral rights and music use
- · Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (federal)
1. Strategy sheet
- · One audience, one transformation, three content pillars
- · Primary platform, secondary platform, and one owned channel (email or SMS)
- · Weekly cadence you can sustain for 90 days without heroics
- · Definition of success: saves and shares for reach, replies and DMs for intent, link clicks and bookings for revenue
2. 90-day calendar structure
| Slot | Content type | Goal |
|---|---|---|
| Mon | Educational / how-to | Saves |
| Wed | Proof — result, review, before/after | Trust |
| Fri | Personality / behind the scenes | Connection |
| Sun | Offer or call to action | Revenue |
3. Hook bank
- · "Most people [common mistake]. Here's what to do instead."
- · "I spent $[amount] learning this so you don't have to."
- · "3 things I'd do differently if I started [thing] today."
- · "If you're in [city/industry], this changes your [outcome]."
- · "Nobody talks about the [hidden cost] of [popular thing]."
- · "Watch me [do a thing] in real time."
4. Repurposing workflow
- · One long asset per week (video, livestream or article)
- · Cut three short clips, one carousel, one text post and one email from it
- · Caption every video — accessibility, and most feeds play muted
- · Log the original asset ID so you can track which source ideas perform
5. Canadian compliance for social
- · Disclose any material connection — paid, gifted, affiliate or employment — clearly and up front, in the post itself, not only in a bio or buried hashtag (Competition Act and Ad Standards Canada guidance)
- · Claims about results, savings or performance must be substantiated before you publish
- · Contests: state rules, entry period, odds, prize value, an Ontario skill-testing question and 'no purchase necessary' where applicable
- · Email or SMS marketing needs express or implied consent, sender identification and a working unsubscribe under CASL — keep a dated consent record
- · Do not post identifiable customers, employees or minors without written consent; music and stock imagery need a licence that covers commercial use
6. Monthly reporting
| Metric | Where it matters | Review |
|---|---|---|
| Reach / views | Top of funnel | Monthly |
| Saves + shares | Content quality | Weekly |
| Profile visits → follows | Positioning | Monthly |
| Link clicks | Intent | Weekly |
| Bookings / sales attributed | Revenue | Monthly |
