> Turn strategy into a prioritized calendar your team can execute.
Overview
The calendar is where editorial decisions become dated items and briefs. CntX can generate a period from your strategy and context, then you refine before production.
Steps
- Ensure a content strategy exists with pillars and channels.
- Open Calendar from the sidebar.
- Generate the upcoming period (or create items manually).
- Review proposed briefs for audience, purpose, and angle.
- Approve high-priority briefs before generating full content.
Tips
- Start with one channel set and a short horizon.
- Reject or edit off-strategy topics instead of overproducing.
- Keep campaign briefs and evergreen calendar briefs distinct when both exist.
Next step
Create or edit a content brief, then approve and generate content.
