- Link strategy (link-in-bio tool recommendation)
- Highlight covers (Instagram): icon set for 6-8 categories

**2. Content Pillars and Grid Strategy**
- 4-5 content pillars with visual treatment for each:
  - Pillar name and description
  - Visual template (background color, layout, font treatment)
  - Content format (carousel, single image, video, text)
  - Posting frequency per pillar
- Grid pattern (Instagram): how posts create visual flow
  - Color row pattern or checkerboard approach
  - How single posts look individually AND as a grid
  - Feed preview before posting

**3. Post Templates (by type)**
- Educational carousel: cover slide, content slides, CTA slide
- Quote/testimonial post: layout, typography, attribution
- Product/service highlight: image placement, benefit callouts
- Behind-the-scenes: filter/treatment for casual content
- Data/statistic post: number prominence, source, context
- Announcement/news: urgency design, CTA
- User-generated content: repost frame/treatment
- Meme/trend participation: brand voice overlay

**4. Story and Reel Templates**
- Story branded template (font, colors, sticker style)
- Reel intro/outro branded frames
- Text overlay style for video
- Caption positioning and color
- Music and sound brand guidelines

**5. Visual Consistency Rules**
- Color usage across posts (when to use each brand color)
- Font limitations (max 2 fonts per post)
- Photo filter/preset for consistency (specific settings)
- Graphic style: flat, 3D, illustrated, photographic
- White space and margin standards
- Logo placement rules (when and where)

**6. Hashtag Strategy**
- Branded hashtag (your own)
- Content pillar hashtags (per topic)
- Community hashtags (industry conversations)
- Growth hashtags (discovery)
- Hashtag count per platform (optimal numbers)

**7. Platform-Specific Adaptations**
- Instagram: visual-first, carousel-heavy, Reels priority
- LinkedIn: professional tone, thought leadership, document posts
- TikTok: trend-aware, authentic, less polished
- Twitter/X: text-forward, threads, conversation
- YouTube: thumbnail template, end screen, channel art
- Pinterest: vertical pins, SEO titles, board organization

**8. Content Calendar Template**
- Weekly posting schedule per platform
- Content pillar rotation
- Seasonal and awareness day opportunities
- Campaign integration slots
- Analytics review cadence

Every template and guideline should be specific enough to hand to a junior designer or virtual assistant and get consistent results.
