How It Works: Your 30-Day Implementation Timeline

Project Kickoff Call (Day 1) Meet your project stakeholders and set the foundation for success. You'll share your current social media state, key challenges, and growth objectives while we establish clear expectations and deliverables. For franchise systems, this includes challenges faced by both headquarters team and franchisees who will implement the strategy, though franchisees are not included on this call itself.

1

Presentation Scheduling & Team Alignment (Days 1-2) Lock in your presentation date (minimum 30 days out) and confirm all participants who create or oversee social media content. This ensures everyone involved in implementation receives the training and framework simultaneously for consistent execution across your organization.

2

Creative Asset Access & Review (Days 2-5) Grant access to existing brand assets including videos, photography, logos, and any creative folders that showcase your current brand identity. This ensures your new framework builds on your existing brand equity while elevating your messaging consistency.

3

Comprehensive Audit & Analysis (Days 6-15) Deep-dive analysis of your brand and competitor social performance across all platforms, identifying gaps, opportunities, and competitive advantages. This research phase uncovers the strategic insights that inform your custom framework development.

4

Custom Framework Development (Days 16-25) I build your Growth Plan Framework—the strategic foundation that drives everything else. Your 3-month content roadmap, implementation guides, and training materials are created using the audit insights and tailored to your specific business objectives and market positioning.

5

Presentation, Training & Delivery (Day 30) Your complete solution delivery in one comprehensive session. Present audit findings, train your team on the new framework, walk through implementation using real examples, and deliver your complete 3-month content roadmap. Receive all deliverables immediately for same-day implementation

FAQs

For Social Media Growth Frameworks, both Tier 1 and Tier 2

  • AI generates content based on generic patterns and standard practices—exactly what your competitors are already doing. Without strategic direction, AI simply replicates the same content pillars everyone else uses, ensuring you blend into the noise rather than stand out. My framework provides the strategic foundation that AI lacks: deep competitive analysis, algorithm optimization strategies, and business-outcome mapping that turns social media into a growth driver. AI is a tool; this framework is the strategy that makes any tool—including AI—actually effective for your specific business goals.

  • Unlike agencies that create ongoing dependency with monthly retainers, you own this framework forever. We provide a repeatable methodology that makes your team the experts, eliminating the need for external dependencies. This is especially valuable for franchise systems that need consistent approaches across all locations without recurring agency fees.

  • Everything ties directly to revenue and growth, not vanity metrics like likes and follows. Our framework connects every post to measurable business outcomes—foot traffic, lead generation, customer acquisition, and sales growth. You'll see the direct line from social media activity to bottom-line results.

  • Tier 1 is specifically designed for established single-location businesses ready to systematize their social strategy. Tier 2 adds franchise-specific tools like the pre-opening blueprint that single locations don't need. Both tiers deliver scalable solutions—choose based on whether you're optimizing current operations or planning expansion.

  • Yes, the 30-day timeline is guaranteed from kickoff to delivery. If any scheduling conflicts arise on my end due to travel or unforeseen circumstances, I'll notify you immediately and adjust accordingly. The only factor that may extend the timeline is if your stakeholders or franchisees need additional time to coordinate their schedules for the presentation—in which case we'll reschedule to ensure all key participants can attend and receive the training.

  • Absolutely. I partner with a trusted video editor who specializes in adapting existing branded footage to align with new messaging frameworks. This service ensures your video content seamlessly integrates with your new social media strategy. Please mention your interest in video editing services when we discuss your project scope.

  • Payment is required upfront to secure your project slot and reserve your dedicated timeline. This ensures I can commit the necessary resources and block the time needed to deliver your complete solution within the 30-day window. Your investment is protected by our results guarantee—if you don't see measurable improvements within 30 days of implementation, I'll work with you until you do.

  • Every new franchise location represents significant investment, and the difference between a strong launch and slow start impacts profitability for years. The 12-week pre-opening blueprint eliminates trial-and-error, builds market anticipation, and ensures day-one customers. Most franchise brands save $10,000+ in marketing mistakes by following this proven system.

  • The framework includes a clear implementation timeline so you know exactly when to expect results. Most organizations see measurable improvements within 30 days of implementation. The systematic approach removes guesswork—you'll have audit results showing competitor gaps, creating immediate opportunities for better performance.

  • Both tiers follow the same 30-day timeline for the core deliverables—kickoff call through presentation and delivery.

    With Tier 2, you'll receive your 12-week pre-opening blueprint 10 days after the main presentation. This allows me to incorporate any insights from your team's questions during the presentation and ensure the pre-opening strategy perfectly aligns with your newly established framework and messaging pillars.

  • Both—and that's exactly why it works. The framework creates system-wide consistency while empowering local execution. Your headquarters marketing team gets the strategic foundation to guide brand messaging, while franchisees receive practical tools to effectively represent your brand in their local markets.

    The content pillar framework creates a deeper level of content buckets for your brand and structures your messaging so it's algorithm-proof and optimized for reaching new people and getting those people to engage with content in ways the social platforms reward.

    The training call includes both groups because successful franchise marketing requires alignment between corporate strategy and local implementation. Whether it's your social media manager at headquarters or franchisees posting about grand openings and community events, everyone operates from the same proven framework that maximizes visibility and engagement. This unified approach eliminates inconsistent brand representation across locations while ensuring every post is optimized for algorithmic performance and customer acquisition.
