THIS is My Secret to Creating Social Media Posts Quickly

“You need to post on social media.”

“You should be posting every single day.”

“At the very least, you need to post every other day.”

“Consistency is key.”

Yes, we’re aware we need posts.. but even if you’re 100% in sync, soul-aligned, on-board or whatever you are calling it when you’re in your business, it’s sometimes hard to come up with posts.

You have a message, but need the visual.

Here are the two best-kept secrets:

  • Templates
  • Stock Photos

Here are some great resources that will help you save time:

Templates are GREAT!

  • Quotes
  • Questions
  • Tips & Tricks
  • Stats
  • Lists
  • Timelines
  • Promotions
  • Service Menus
  • Infographics

You can find templates for any and every kind of post you need. 

PLEASE check license terms to make sure you are using the templates and photos properly. 

That being said, here are my favorites: 

There’s not even enough space here to include every genre SMC includes. Here are a few:
