Course 05 · Social on Autopilot

Film once. Post everywhere. Hands off.

You don't need to be a content creator. You need a system that turns one short recording into a week of posts across every platform — cut, captioned, and scheduled automatically.

The one idea

Most businesses fail at social because they treat every platform as separate work. The fix is create once, repurpose everywhere. Record one piece of video, let AI tools chop it into platform-perfect captioned clips, and let a scheduler push them out on autopilot. The whole job collapses into a single weekly hour.

Only two clip types you ever need

  • The Talking Clip — you on camera answering ONE customer question (the questions from Course 3). 30–60s. Auto-cut with Opus Clip or Klap.
  • The Proof Clip — before/after, the work, a result. Often no face needed. Edit + caption with CapCut + Submagic.

The weekly 1-hour system

  1. (10m) Capture one 3-5 min phone video.
  2. (15m) Cut it in Opus/Klap → ~10 captioned clips.
  3. (15m) Caption — paste the prompt below into Claude for all platforms at once.
  4. (15m) Schedule in Metricool / Buffer / Publer — auto-posts to GBP, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts.
You are my social-media manager for [business] in [location/niche]. Topic of this week's clip: [one line]. Give me, ready to paste: 1) three scroll-stopping hooks; 2) an Instagram/Facebook caption (warm, 2-3 lines, one CTA); 3) a punchier TikTok caption; 4) a YouTube Shorts title + 1-line description; 5) a Google Business Profile post (local, city + offer); 6) 8 hashtags (broad + hyperlocal). Brand voice: [5 words]. No fluff.
Charge for this: "done-for-you social — film once a month, we handle the rest" is a $500–$2,000/mo retainer and the easiest recurring revenue in the system.
