Why posting feels hard
Most people don't struggle to write. They struggle to decide what to write, every single day. Content pillars remove that decision.
A content pillar is a recurring theme you post about. Three to five pillars give you variety without chaos, and they make your account recognizable: people learn what to expect from you.
Good pillars
Each pillar should be:
- Useful or interesting to your audience, not just to you
- Something you can talk about credibly from real experience
- Broad enough for dozens of posts, narrow enough to be yours
Example: a bookkeeper who serves small agencies
- Money mistakes agencies make: practical, shareable warnings
- Behind the books: anonymized stories from real month-ends
- Tools and systems: what they use and why
- Founder sanity: the human side of running a small business
Notice the mix: teaching, stories, practical tips, and personality. A balanced set keeps you from sounding like a textbook or a diary.
Where pillars live in Ace
If you took "Make AI Sound Like You", your Brand Profile has a Content Pillars field. Put them there, and every campaign that uses the profile knows them. Otherwise, you'll add them to your campaign's context in Module 2.
Try it
Write three to five pillars, each with one sentence on why your audience cares. Keep them handy for the first lab.
