What is a Social Media Planner?
A social media planner is a dedicated tool that helps you organise your content strategy, plan posts in advance and stay consistent across platforms.
Unlike a generic diary or notebook, a social media planner is built specifically for marketing. It gives you space to map posts, set goals, track campaigns and reflect on progress – all in one place.
In 2026, consistency is what sets businesses apart. A social media planner keeps you ahead of trends and in control of your time.
