How to run am

Writers dey draft, person go approve, then e go publish

Dat sentence na the product, and the order na the point. The drafting na automatic, the publishing na automatic, and in between, human being dey wey go read the thing before e go out with your name on top. Autopilot dey exist, per channel, and e dey off until you deliberately switch am on.

1DueThe slot go come up, one or two days before im date.
2Don draftBy the writer wey the slot belong to, against im theme.
3Don assembleImage found, licence attach, links wey dem suggest.
4Dey waitThe approval gate. Nothing dey move without person.
5Don publishAt the slot time, through your own key.
6Record amDem dey write am into the week report as e dey happen.

Slots dey due before dem date on purpose. Draft wey appear one hour before e suppose publish no be something you go approve, na something you go rubber-stamp; draft wey appear two days early na something you fit disagree with. The lead time na per channel, because blog post need longer time to argue about than caption.

To approve na one tap, and to approve one week at once na one tap too. To edit before approving na the normal case no be the exception, and dem go remember the edit against the writer — na why the third month need far less editing than the first.

Di gate, and di switch

Approval na per channel. Business wey don run for few months go dey put Instagram on autopilot and the blog still on approval, because caption na small commitment but blog post read like official statement.

To switch channel to autopilot na deliberate thing: you go confirm am, e go talk wetin e go dey do now without asking, and na one click to switch back. Some businesses never turn am on, and dat na supported way to run dis thing no be failure to graduate.

Two things no go ever go out unapproved no matter the switch. Anything wey involve money on your behalf — paid post, ad — go always wait for person. And draft wey trip one of your own guardrails, like naming price or making claim wey you talk say you no dey make, dem go hold am back and flag am instead of publish am.

When e spoil

Repair dey happen open-open

Platforms dey refuse things. Token dey expire, image fit get wrong aspect ratio, API fit down for ninety seconds around four for morning. Wetin matter no be say e no go ever happen, but say you no go ever dey guess about am.

Nothing dey publish two times

Every publication carry one key wey come from di slot. If you retry after timeout, e go see say di post don already dey there and e go stop. Di failure wey nervous scheduler dey get — same post showing three times — no fit happen here.

Failure dey visible, e no dey hide

If channel refuse, dem go mark di slot as failed with di reason wey di platform give, and e go talk am inside di weekly report. Dem no go quietly drop am and e no go dey sit down dey pretend say e dey scheduled.

Dem dey propose repair, dem no dey apply am

When slot fail, di plan go offer repair — republish, move am to di next open slot, or leave am — and na you go pick. One month plan no go quietly rearrange imsef behind your back.

Publishing dey pass through your own key

FABLS dey post through castomAPI with key wey belong to your account. Na your WordPress site, your Facebook Page, your Instagram business account. Di permissions na yours, di rate limits na yours, and if you revoke di key, publishing go stop dat minute and nothing else remain to unwind.

Images fit come from castomAPI royalty-free media library, wey dey search eleven providers at once and dey import picture with im licence and attribution attach to di file, no be for person memory. When post need credit line, di credit line go come from di same record wey di picture come from, so e no fit go stale.

Di honest part: di approval gate na real work. Ten slots for one week na ten things to read, and di businesses wey dey get value here na di ones wey dey treat dose ten minutes as di work, no be as obstacle. If nobody go read di drafts, autopilot for every channel no be di answer — smaller plan na di answer.
