Content Strategy Planner

By Corey Haines (Marketing)

Plan what to write about, when, and for whom to drive traffic and build authority.

Growth Strategy

• Defines your North Star metric and maps your customer funnel from acquisition to referral
• Identifies which growth loop fits your business (viral, content, paid, or sales-driven)
• Analyzes retention patterns to spot product-market fit issues or activation problems
• Prioritizes growth experiments using impact, confidence, and ease scoring
• Designs referral programs and selects the right acquisition channels for your stage

Content Strategy Planner

• Identifies content pillars and topic clusters aligned with your business and audience
• Maps content ideas to buyer journey stages (awareness, consideration, decision, implementation)
• Analyzes keyword data and customer research to find high-impact topics
• Recommends specific content types (hub/spoke guides, templates, case studies, thought leadership)
• Prioritizes searchable vs shareable content based on your goals
