How a managed social page runs, month to month
The standing decisions behind a managed page: access, approvals, filming days, music rights, cross-posting, and who answers a DM.
Short answer
A managed social page runs on a handful of standing decisions rather than a task list: who holds delegated access, who approves and by what deadline, what you film each month, and who answers a DM that is really an enquiry. The editing is the part least likely to break. What breaks is the input side and the approval loop, which is why a retainer usually stalls in week three instead of failing on quality. Settle those rules before the first post and the schedule survives a bad month.
Most social retainers do not fail on the edit. They fail because nobody set a deadline for approvals, because the agency was handed a password instead of a revocable role, or because the client stopped filming in month two and nobody said so out loud. VALORAE Media runs pages video first, and the pattern repeats often enough that we now write the operating rules down before the first post goes up. The unpopular half of that is that some of this work is the client's, and no tier price makes it disappear. An agency that pretends otherwise is selling you a quiet month one and an argument in month four.
