The Social Machine · live online workshop

AI training for social media managers

Draft on-brand posts and keep client sign-off in place.

Build one posting workflow for one account, with drafts in that brand’s voice and your existing sign-off step. Adapting it for other clients comes afterwards.

My own machine reached 811K views in its first month. It posted 906 times while I travelled Asia with my mom.

Where your week goes

You’re paid for strategy and results. Most of the week still goes on making, resizing and scheduling posts for every account.

Set up in the workshop

A batch of posts for one account

Now:

Each client’s calendar starts from a blank grid, and the month-end batch eats your weekend.

With AI:

Draft a batch for one account from its material and a style guide built for that brand. Review before adapting the method for another client.

Example: the same week for a café and a law firm (illustrative)

Café: Our oat flat white has a queue on Saturdays. Come at 8 and skip it.

Law firm: Buying a home with a friend? Settle these three questions before you sign anything.

Reels from raw client footage

Next, not included

Now:

Clients send raw clips on Wednesday and expect polished Reels by Friday.

With AI:

Later, explore editing client footage as a separate workflow. Finished video edits are outside the first carousel and faceless-post build.

Publishing approved posts

Set up in the workshop

Now:

Holding every client to a steady posting cadence means hours of copying and scheduling each week.

With AI:

Start with one account’s approved posts and supported publishing connections. Here’s how one system keeps posting every day.

Monthly client reports

Next, not included

Now:

The report means screenshots from every dashboard and commentary written late at night.

With AI:

Supply the results you can access to draft a report and next month’s options. Check the numbers and add your interpretation before sharing.

What you’ll set up

Build and check one account’s workflow in the workshop. Each additional account needs its own context, permissions and publishing checks afterwards.

  1. Visualize

    Start with one client’s audience and voice.

    Choose one client and review their published material and available results. Decide which audience, message and format the first posting workflow should serve.

  2. Automate

    Draft one account’s posts for sign-off.

    Draft posts around that client’s content pillars. Keep your existing sign-off step and test publishing only after the content is approved.

  3. Optimize

    Review results before adapting the workflow.

    Review the account’s available results with the client’s goals in mind. Choose what to change before preparing the next batch.

Build one account’s workflow in The Social Machine. Use what you learn to assess the setup and permissions needed for each additional client.

Questions

Is this an AI course made for social media managers?

No. It’s The Social Machine, my live two-day workshop for people who need to be seen online. You build one account’s workflow; adapting it for other clients comes later.

Will each client sound different?

Each brand needs its own examples and style guide. Start with one account, check drafts against its voice, and repeat that review when you adapt the method for another client.

How do client approvals work?

You keep the sign-off step you already have, whether that’s you or the client, and nothing posts until it’s done.

What about my clients’ confidential information?

The machine works only from what each client has published and the brief you write, so nothing private goes in.

What will I need?

Bring material you’re allowed to use for one account. We’ll confirm the supported setup and any required subscriptions before booking; publishing needs compatible connections.

Hear the next dates first.

Two live days to build one account’s content workflow, with its own voice, a review step and publishing setup to check.
