A Content Marketing Planner helps creators and marketers keep track of what content needs to be made, when it should be published, and where it will appear. This organization prevents last-minute rushes and missed opportunities, making marketing efforts more effective.
Typically, a planner includes a calendar with deadlines, topics, content formats (like blog posts, videos, or social media updates), and channels for distribution. It can be a digital tool, spreadsheet, or a dedicated role within a team.
Many creators use tools like Google Calendar, Trello, or specialized software like CoSchedule or Asana to plan their content. Some larger teams have a dedicated Content Marketing Planner who coordinates between creators, designers, and marketers.
