of 6— Open Claude Pro and start a new conversation
What you'll accomplish
By the end of this guide, you'll know how to prompt Claude Pro to generate a complete, structured 30-day content calendar — with post topics, formats, platform assignments, caption ideas, and hashtag sets — in one session. What used to take 4-6 hours will take under 45 minutes.
What you'll need
- A Claude account upgraded to Pro ($20/month at claude.ai) — the long context window is essential for full calendar generation
- Your brand details: content pillars, posting frequency per platform, upcoming campaigns or key dates
- A Google Sheets template to paste the output into
- Time needed: 30 minutes for first setup; 30-45 minutes per monthly calendar session
- Cost: $20/month Claude Pro
