Social Avenue 30-Day Plan (IG vs TikTok)
-
Engagement-first: Optimize for saves, shares, comments, DMs.
-
Storytelling + BTS: Show process, people, chaos, decisions, real agency moments.
-
Spontaneous content weekly: 1–2 “not overproduced” posts per week.
-
SEO-first captions: Keyword phrases in the first 1–2 lines. Hashtags are secondary.
-
Answer search questions: “How to…”, “What to post when…”, “Best way to…”
-
Analytics loop: End of each week = check top posts → double down next week.
IG – Informational Reel
-
Topic: “3 mistakes that stop you from getting inquiries on Instagram”
-
Hook text: “Posting a lot but no inquiries?”
-
CTA: “Comment ‘AUDIT’ and I’ll send a checklist.”
TikTok – Relatable/POV
-
Concept: “POV: client wants ‘viral’ but hates trends”
-
CTA: “Tag a friend who’s heard ‘make it pop’.”
TikTok – Trendy format
-
Concept: Use a trending sound + text overlay: “things small businesses do that kill engagement”
-
CTA: “Which one are you guilty of?”
IG – Portfolio Showcase (Reel or Carousel)
-
Topic: “Before/After: turning a random post into a branded conversion post”
-
CTA: “DM ‘BEFOREAFTER’ for the template.”
TikTok – Relatable

Concept: “Agency to-do list that looks easy until you open Canva”
-
CTA: “This is your sign to batch.”
TikTok – Shitpost
-
Concept: “When you plan content… then the client changes the promo”
-
CTA: “Real ones know.”
IG – Team-focused Post
-
Topic: “Meet the team: who does what + what we’re obsessed with”
-
CTA: “Say hi + tell us what industry you’re in.”
TikTok – Trendy/Relatable
-
Concept: “rating client feedback from 1–10”
-
CTA: “Drop the funniest feedback you’ve gotten.”
IG – Photo dump w/ 1–2 videos
-
Theme: “Week in the agency: chaos + wins”
-
CTA: “Save if you want more weekly dumps.”
TikTok – Mini tip disguised as joke
-
Concept: “If your caption is ‘New post!’… I fear we need help”
-
CTA: “Want caption starters? Comment ‘CAPTIONS’.”
IG – Stories (Community day)
-
Flow: poll → Q&A box → mini audit tip → soft CTA to book call
-
CTA: “DM ‘CALL’ if you want us to handle your socials.”
