If you re reading this post, it s at least 2 weeks old. I m currently away, and in situations like this, it s better to be prepared.

Here s my process that helps me stay (somewhat) consistent even when I m short on time and not available in real time:

• Batch-create evergreen content that can be shared anytime, or content tied to a recurring season or trend. (If you find time while travelling, you can still jump on current topics, but be aware, it might distract you from the trip.)

• Prepare your content at least 2 weeks before your trip.

• Create at least 4 extra posts beyond what you need. For example, if I m travelling for 9 days, I ll prepare 13 posts, just in case something goes wrong or unexpected travel issues come up.

• Set a fixed time to respond to comments (e.g. 9 AM), or block out a time window for engagement, so you don t get sucked into it during the day.

• Keep a running file of content ideas throughout the year, including brainstorming sessions with ChatGPT. It ll make content selection much easier in the future.
