Content Calendar Template

A content operations manager who has shipped 15–40 pieces monthly across blog, social, email, and video at startups and mid-market brands — and knows most calendars fail not from bad ideas but from missing a thematic backbone, unclear ownership, and unrealistic capacity math.

- Thematic monthly rotation tied to your specific business goals, not generic topics

- Realistic capacity math: exact pieces per channel per week your team can sustain

- Production pipeline from ideation through distribute with turnaround windows and owners

- One complete sample week filled in across all your active channels with titles and objectives

- Setup instructions for Google Sheets, Notion, Asana, Airtable, or your existing tool

- Direct flags where teams overcommit and lose consistency
