The previous year, I dropped out of Law School so I could be with my mom while
she battled a relapse of brain cancer. We then planned a wedding in three short
months so my mom could walk me down the aisle. Having no idea what the future
held, but realizing that life was short, I decided that I wanted to be a photographer.
The results were not pretty. In fact, I’d go as far as saying they were ugly.

Two words: Social Media.
I knew I wasn’t the smartest, most talented, cutest, or richest photographer out
there. But I knew how to consistently create content for my ideal customer
better than my competition, and social media empowered me to do that.

So many people are constantly battling with their social media
accounts. They don’t know what to post or what to say, and they
quickly adopt the mindset that there isn’t enough time to make it
all come together.

But here’s the thing: that mindset doesn’t pay your bills.
Getting people’s attention by offering the  that your
business provides for them is what makes you money.
In order to market your business on social media, you must
post CONTENT. That’s why we’ve provided a framework to help
you come up with a system that works for your business so you
continue to show up day after day.
You can watch this video on how to easily plan, create, and
schedule content by pairing the following:
Ca
ption Categories: Topics that empower you to talk about
your business without having to sell your business.
Social Curator provides monthly caption templates for 7
categories that we suggest you start out with. Then, come
up with your own 2-5 categories to reach a total of 9-12
caption categories.
Photo Topics: Images that you regularly incorporate on
social media to give an inside look at your business.
We recommend using 9-12 photo topics for your business.
These photos can go along with any of the content categories
that you’ve determined for your business.
Why are the magic numbers 9-12? Because that’s how many

start looking through photos. With 9-12 categories and topics,
you’re ensuring that your audience sees a variety of content,
which will keep them interested.

workbook, located in the extra section of the issue, where I
explain how to market your business using caption categories
and photo topics to keep your social media content engaging,
interesting, and personalized. When people resonate with your
content, they are more inclined to speak to you, so its important
that you put out what you want to attract.

It’s been said before, but it’s worth repeating: when
you speak to everyone, inevitably, no one thinks you’re
speaking to them. In other words, when you try to appeal
to all, you stick out to none.
That’s why its so important to know who you’re
intending to reach when you market your business on

We challenge you to use this framework to create a system
that makes sense for you and your business. Set aside time each
week to plan for the week ahead. This will help you see what
photo props you might need, when you might need someone to
take a photo of you, or even when you can take some behind-the-
scenes footage that will be perfect for a Story.
It’s all about having a plan and being able to adjust as life and
business unfolds. By creating your posting schedule, you’re
setting yourself up for social media marketing success because
having a plan to execute on is half the battle!

Social media is FREE marketing for your business, so
to make the most of this opportunity, you must show up
consistently.
Make a commitment to consistently show up on social

Next, use the following tips, as well as the social planner
on the next page, to help you map out your content.
How to plan posts to help you show up consistently:
1 Plan one week at a time: When just starting out,
resist the temptation to plan the whole month at
one time. Instead, start with just one week. Once you
have a sense of the captions you need to modify (or

HERE’S TO US, CRAZY ONES, US WHO BELIEVE OUR
DREAM IS WITHIN REACH. THE WILD ONES WHO BELIEVE
PASSION+PURPOSE ARE SYNONYMOUS. WE PICK UP OUR
PENS TO WRITE, OUR BRUSHES TO PAINT, OUR CAMERAS TO
DOCUMENT, OUR PHONES TO POST. WE PUSH BEYOND OUR
FEARS, DOUBTS, AND THOSE WHO NAYSAY. WE FIND THE
SMALLEST BIT OF HOPE AND CLING TO IT FOR DEAR LIFE,
WILLING IT TO PUSH US TO FUTURE SUCCESS. ON DAYS WHEN
THE ODDS ARE STACKED AGAINST US, THE SUN DOESN’T
SHINE, AND WE CAN’T FIND A SINGLE PAIR OF MATCHING
SOCKS, WE PUSH FORWARD. WE HAVE THE AUDACITY TO
DREAM BEYOND THE PARAMETERS SET BEFORE US, AND HELP
OTHERS ALONG THE WAY. WE KNOW WE WILL GO FARTHER
WITH A GROUP OF WILD DREAMERS AT OUR SIDES, THAN
MAKING THE LONG WALK ALONE. WE POUR INTO OTHERS
JUST AS MUCH AS OURSELVES, UNDERSTANDING OUR GIFTS
ARE MEANT TO BE SHARED, NOT HOARDED. EACH DAY WE
RISE AND TELL THE UNIVERSE, “THANK YOU, I’M HERE TO
CREATE, HERE TO SHARE MY VOICE WITH THE WORLD.”
WE ARE SOCIAL CURATORS.
