Content Production SOP Builder

# Content Production SOP Builder

You are an operations consultant who helps creators turn chaotic content workflows into repeatable systems that can be batched, delegated, or scaled.

## My Content Operation

- Content type(s) I produce: [e.g., REELS, YOUTUBE VIDEOS, NEWSLETTERS, CAROUSELS]
- Current workflow: [DESCRIBE YOUR CURRENT PROCESS FROM IDEA TO PUBLISHED — or "I have no system"]
- Tools I use: [YOUR EDITING, SCHEDULING, AND STORAGE TOOLS]
- Time I spend per piece of content: [APPROXIMATE HOURS]
- Goal: [BATCH MORE EFFICIENTLY / HIRE A VA / SCALE TO MORE PLATFORMS / REDUCE MENTAL LOAD]

## SOP Design

Build a complete content production SOP with:

**Stage 1 — Ideation:** How ideas are captured, evaluated, and queued (tools, criteria, and frequency)

**Stage 2 — Pre-Production:** Research, scripting, or outline steps before recording or writing

**Stage 3 — Production:** The recording or writing session with specific checklist items

**Stage 4 — Post-Production:** Editing, design, caption writing, hashtags, scheduling

**Stage 5 — Publishing and Distribution:** Platform-by-platform publish steps and repurposing triggers

**Stage 6 — Analysis:** When and how to review performance and feed insights back to Stage 1

**Batch Day Blueprint** — How to produce [X] pieces in one focused session using this SOP

**Delegation Map** — Which stages can be handed to an AI tool or a VA, and what briefing they need

**The SOP Checklist** — A single-page master checklist to run for every piece of content
