Your Creative Brief

Audrey, You're Green-Lit.

This is your guide. One page. Everything you need to know about what to post, when, and where. No data dumps. No guessing. Just clarity.

March 2026 Bright Side Plumbing + 100 Year

You Own 80% of the Feed.

The brand is yours. The aesthetic is yours. The team photos, the Tuesday mornings, the community shots, the behind-the-scenes -- that is your creative vision. Robert provides one service post per week tied to the blog. That's the only 20% he needs. Everything else? Your call.

The 80/20 Split
80% YOURS
20%

Brand & Trust (Your 80%)

Team photos, trucks, Tuesday mornings, community outreach, behind-the-scenes, Sunny & Casey merch, events, KC tourism, office life, the rubber duck, anything that tells the Bright Side story your way.

Service (Robert's 20%)

One post per week. Robert gives you the topic, keywords, and a suggested hook. You design it.

Your Week at a Glance

This repeats every week. Same rhythm. Adjust photos and topics as needed. Both BSP and 100 Year follow this pattern.

Monday
Brand

Your pick. Team photo, truck shot, office moment, community visit. Whatever feels right for the week.

IG Feed FB
Tuesday
Blog Post

The one service post. Robert provides the blog link + hook. You design the graphic. This is the measured post (UTM tracked).

IG Feed FB LinkedIn GBP
Thursday

Your pick again. Before/after, team highlight, sewer job photo (the beautiful kind, not a trench hole), KC neighborhood.

IG Feed FB GBP
Fri / Weekend
Experiment

IG Story or Reel. TikTok test. Silly stuff is fine here. Iterate until something clicks. No pressure.

IG Story IG Reel TikTok
Pro tip from Stephanie: Open Metricool. Drop your photos into the calendar for the whole month. Use ChatGPT to draft captions from the images. Schedule everything. 30-40 minutes for the entire month. Come back and adjust later if something doesn't feel right.
How Your Posts Make Money (Even the Brand Ones)
Awareness Brand posts, TikToks, community content -- people see Bright Side everywhere
Interest They follow, they watch Stories, they recognize the trucks
Desire Blog post shows up. "Oh, we should get our sewer inspected."
Action They call (913) 963-1029. That is a booked job.

Your brand posts are the top of this funnel. Without them, nobody knows Bright Side exists when they need a plumber. The one service post per week is the nudge that turns a follower into a customer. Both matter. Your work drives the whole thing.

Platform Rules (One Card Each)
📷
Instagram
Feed stays polished and professional. Reels and Stories are for experiments. 4 posts/week.
🗣
Facebook
Same as Instagram. Blog link goes in comments, not in the post body.
🎵
TikTok
Playground. Go silly. Brain rot is fine. Iterate the same idea until one hits. Can take 3 months. No penalty for repeating.
💼
LinkedIn
Blog post only. 1-2x/week. Very professional. No casual content.
🌐
Google Business
Blog post + 2 brand posts/month. 150 words max. "Learn more" button.
🎨
100 Year
Same rhythm as BSP. Build both simultaneously. Separate but parallel.

File Naming Cheat Sheet

Before uploading to Drive:
1. Compress with TinyPNG (tinypng.com) -- drops 2.3MB to KB, no quality loss
2. Rename descriptively: sewer-repair-team-muddy-hands.jpg not IMG_0742.JPG
3. Drop into the right folder: Sewers folder for sewer photos. Stephanie helps select.
4. This lets Morpheus (Robert's system) pull and use them automatically.

Hashtags

When Things Compete for Your Time

If Kalen asks for something: Do it. But social media output cannot suffer.
If you feel overwhelmed: Tell Robert or Stephanie immediately. That is not a weakness. That is the system working.
If you are unsure whether to post something: Post it. You are green-lit. 80% is yours.
Classes: 1-2 hours per week. TikTok class is priority. At home if needed. Not daily.

Inspiration

Drew Build Construction -- Dan sent this. Their most viral posts were the "dumb reels." The professional posts got 5 likes. The silly ones got hundreds. Look at what they did and how we can adapt it for plumbing.

Apple + MacBook TikTok strategy -- Stephanie is sending this video. Apple kept Instagram ultra-professional but went full brain rot on TikTok for Gen Z. Same brand, different faces per platform. That is our model.

You've Got This.

Quality takes time. That is not a weakness. That is craftsmanship. We restructured the workflow so you can work project by project, not bounce between five things. The brand you are building for Bright Side is unlike anything else in KC plumbing. We know that. Stephanie knows that. Kalen knows that. Now go create.
