> Plan a 30-day multi-channel content calendar with funnel ratios, content pillars, source-type mix, and AI scoring before publishing.
Step 0 — Read context file
Before generating the calendar, read .agents/product-marketing-context-global.md for:
- Brand voice & tone
- Active channels and follower base
- Region (drives optimal posting times and channel mix)
- Currency (drives any monetary CTA framing)
If the file is missing, ask the user to run product-marketing-context-global first.
Information gathering
Ask the user up to 4 questions before starting:
- Product / service? Industry, core USP, price tier.
- Active channels? List channels (TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Email, Blog, Podcast) with current follower / subscriber counts.
- Goal this month? Grow followers / grow inbound messages / grow orders / launch a new product / seasonal campaign?
- Content resources? How many people produce content? Can you record video? Do you have UGC / testimonials available?
Calendar principles
1. Funnel distribution
| Funnel stage | Share | Goal | Content type |
|-------------|-------|------|-------------|
| TOFU (Awareness) | 40% | Attract new viewers | Trends, tips, POV, behind-the-scenes, pain points |
| MOFU (Consideration) | 35% | Build trust, persuade | Case study, review, comparison, process, FAQ |
| BOFU (Conversion) | 15% | Close the order | Offer, deal, countdown, retarget, livestream |
| Retention | 10% | Retain existing customers | VIP content, referral, community, re-engagement |
2. Content pillar balance
Every brand needs 3–5 pillars. Audit balance weekly.
| Pillar | Recommended share | This week's count |
|--------|-------------------|-------------------|
| Education | 30–35% | [count] / [total] = [%] |
| Inspiration | 20–25% | [count] / [total] = [%] |
| Entertainment | 20–25% | [count] / [total] = [%] |
| Selling | 10–15% | [count] / [total] = [%] |
| Community | 5–10% | [count] / [total] = [%] |
Rule: If any pillar drifts more than 10% from its target, rebalance the following week.
3. Source-type mix
| Source type | Share | Description |
|-------------|-------|-------------|
| FGC (Founder Generated) | 25–30% | Founder / expert content — highest trust |
| Brand Content | 30–35% | Official brand assets |
| UGC (User Generated) | 20–25% | Customer-created — social proof |
| EGC (Employee Generated) | 10–15% | Team-created — authentic culture |
Content matrix — generate ideas at scale
> Adapted from Justin Welsh's content matrix method. Universal, works in any market.
Multiply your content pillars by 8 formats to generate 24–40 ideas in one sitting.
8 content formats
| # | Format | Description | Example |
|---|--------|-------------|---------|
| 1 | How-to | Teach a specific skill, step by step | "3 steps to set up a Meta Pixel correctly" |
| 2 | Inspiration | Success stories, overcoming obstacles | "From 0 to 50K followers in 6 months — true story" |
| 3 | Analysis | Explain why, how a mechanism works | "Why expensive ads still produce no orders — root cause analysis" |
| 4 | Contrarian | Challenge a common belief | "Running more ads is NOT how you grow orders" |
| 5 | Observation | Hidden trends, things others miss | "Something is happening on TikTok Shop that few notice" |
| 6 | X vs Y | Compare 2 tools / approaches / strategies | "Meta Ads vs TikTok Ads: which industries pick which?" |
| 7 | Now vs Future | Predictions, upcoming trends | "Marketing 2025 vs 2026: 5 big shifts" |
| 8 | List | Tips, mistakes, lessons, tools | "7 most common ad mistakes SMBs make" |
How to use
- Pull 3–5 brand content pillars (from
product-marketing-context-globalor by asking) - Build a grid: pillars (rows) × 8 formats (columns) = 24–40 ideas
- Each cell holds a specific headline — never generic ("Marketing" is wrong, "3 ways to cut CPMess below $5" is right)
- Pick the 15 strongest ideas → fill them into the weekly calendar
Content matrix template
| Pillar \ Format | How-to | Inspiration | Analysis | Contrarian | Observation | X vs Y | Now vs Future | List |
|-----------------|--------|-------------|----------|------------|-------------|--------|---------------|------|
| [Pillar 1] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] |
| [Pillar 2] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] |
| [Pillar 3] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] |
| [Pillar 4] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] | [Idea] |
> Tip: Run the matrix once per month → bank 32+ ideas. You will never run dry.
Content repurposing matrix — 1:7 ratio
Every source asset spawns at least 7 derivatives.
Repurposing table
| # | Source asset | Derivative | Target channel | Length / size | Production time |
|---|-------------|-----------|----------------|---------------|-----------------|
| 1 | Long video (3–5 min) | Original | YouTube | 3–5 min | 2–4h |
| 2 | | Short clip #1 (hook) | TikTok | 15–30s | 15 min |
| 3 | | Short clip #2 (key tip) | Reels | 15–30s | 15 min |
| 4 | | Short clip #3 (outcome) | TikTok / Shorts | 15–30s | 15 min |
| 5 | | Carousel (5–7 slides) | Instagram, LinkedIn | 5–7 images | 30 min |
| 6 | | SEO blog post | Website | 800–1500 words | 1–2h |
| 7 | | Email newsletter | Email list | 300–500 words | 30 min |
| 8 | | 3 quote cards | Story, Threads, X | 1 image / card | 15 min |
| 9 | | Audio snippet | Podcast feed / OA voice | 1–2 min | 10 min |
Repurposing workflow
Day 1: Record / write source asset

Region notes (set in foundation skill)
- US: Time zones split (ET / CT / PT) — schedule to dominant audience zone. LinkedIn strong for B2B SaaS.
- EU: Strict GDPR — confirm consent for email. CET / GMT split. LinkedIn strong DACH region.
- SEA: TikTok dominates, LINE / Zalo / WhatsApp are messenger-of-record. Mobile-first, evening peak 19:00–22:00.
- LATAM: WhatsApp + TikTok + Instagram primary. Spanish + Portuguese require localised copy. Late-evening engagement (21:00–23:00).
- APAC ex-China: Mix of Instagram, TikTok, LINE (Japan / Taiwan), KakaoTalk (Korea). Localisation required.
- MENA: Snap + TikTok + Instagram. Friday is weekend — adjust scheduling.
Seasonal peaks (universal)
| Season | Notes | Adjustment |
|--------|-------|------------|
| Q4 (Black Friday / Cyber Monday) | CPM spikes 30–50%, engagement up | Pre-warm audience 2 weeks early, pre-schedule content |
| End-of-year holidays | E-commerce, education, gifting peak | Higher CPMs through Dec |
| Back-to-school (Aug–Sep, Northern Hemisphere) | Education, edtech, productivity tools spike | Education content surge |
| Summer (Jun–Aug N. Hemisphere) | F&B, travel, leisure surge | Leisure-themed content |
| Region-specific (Lunar New Year, Ramadan, Diwali) | Local cultural moments | Plan 2–3 weeks in advance, localise content |
AI content scoring
Score every piece before publishing (0–10 scale):
| Criterion | Weight | Score (1–10) | Score × weight |
|-----------|--------|--------------|---------------|
| Hook (first 3 seconds — does it stop the scroll?) | 25% | [score] | |
| Relevance (does it match the target customer insight?) | 20% | [score] | |
| Value (what does the viewer take away?) | 20% | [score] | |
| CTA (clear and action-driving?) | 15% | [score] | |
| Visual (image / video quality?) | 10% | [score] | |
| Brand consistency (correct tone, colours?) | 10% | [score] | |
| Total | 100% | | [total] / 10 |
Publishing thresholds:
- 8–10: Publish now, consider boosting with paid
- 6–7.9: Publish with minor edits
- 4–5.9: Rewrite hook or CTA before publishing
- <4: Do not publish, redo
