How a neighbourhood bakery plans a week of posts in one sitting
Posting is the owner's job, done between orders, so it slips in the busiest weeks. Put the menu, prices and timings in the Brain once, let SocioAI draft the week, and approve it in one sitting.
The set-up
- Networks
- Instagram, Facebook and Google Business Profile
- Rhythm
- Four posts a week on Instagram, two on Facebook, one special on Google
- Approvals
- The owner approves every post, in Manual mode
Start with the facts
For a bakery the risk isn't a dull post. It's a post with last month's price, a sold-out item or a delivery promise you can't keep. So start in the Brand Brain: the menu with prices, opening hours, the eggless and sugar-free options, where you deliver and how to pre-order.
Import your website as well. Its pages come in as facts for you to approve or reject, one at a time or all at once. SocioAI only states facts you've marked as verified, so a price that isn't in the Brain is flagged for you instead of guessed.
Set the rhythm once
In Plan my week, set how often to post on each network. Add content pillars that suit a bakery: new bakes, behind the counter, festival specials and answers to the questions customers ask most.
Every morning SocioAI checks the week ahead for empty slots and drafts posts to fill them, balanced across your pillars. The page shows what planning costs in credits before anything is spent.
The kesar pista loaf is back for the season.
Saffron, pistachio and a slow bake. ₹420 for the full loaf, eggless as always. At the counter and on delivery from 7 AM, Tuesday to Sunday. Ask us about pre-orders for Diwali hampers.
Waiting in Approvals for a person to approve it
Approve the week in one sitting
Once a week, open Plan my week and read the drafts. Swap in a photo from your phone, change a line, move Friday's post to Saturday if there's a big order to bake, and approve. With best-time scheduling switched on, a post you approve without a time goes out in the next good slot.
For the moments nobody planned, like a tray fresh out of the oven, use Magic Post: idea, platforms, caption, photo and schedule in five steps, or post straight away.
Get ahead of the festival rush
Set Diwali, Christmas and your other busy weeks up as campaigns with their dates, draft the hamper and pre-order posts a fortnight ahead, and approve them before the rush. Offers have to be verified facts in the Brain before SocioAI will mention them.
Comments asking about prices, pre-orders or delivery land in the engagement inbox, sorted as they arrive, each with a reply drafted in your voice. You read it, change what you like and send it yourself.
