Glossary / Editorial calendar
What is Editorial calendar?
An editorial calendar is the schedule of what you will publish, when, and who is doing it. It turns good intentions into dated commitments.
It is a plan with owners and dates. Topic, format, channel, writer, draft date, publish date. The value is that a slipping piece becomes visible before the deadline instead of after it.
Plan themes, not random posts. A month built around one topic gives you a guide, a few social posts, and a newsletter that all point at each other. Random posts give you none of that.
Leave gaps on purpose. A calendar with no slack has nowhere to put the timely piece you did not see coming.
