Content planner cards in 3x5 and 4x6, a calm card box for post ideas

Content planner cards give every social media idea its own small card, so you always know what to post next for your small business. This undated set has 29 pages with eight card designs in true 3 x 5 in and 4 x 6 in index card sizes, crop marks, lined and dot backs, 60 prompts and card box dividers. You get US Letter and A4 PDF files as an instant download.

It is a card system that lives in a small box rather than a full page planner. Shuffle the cards, sort them, and reprint only the designs you really use.

How content planner cards keep your posting calm

Ideas tend to vanish in phone notes. Here each one lands on a post idea card with room for the hook, caption notes, hashtags, a CTA and tick boxes for the format. Pillar cards sort ideas by theme, the weekly plan card maps Monday through Sunday plus a batch day, and the shot list card keeps a photo session focused.

When you work with partners, the collab card holds the details. The analytics snapshot shows what truly performed this month, and the repurpose card helps one strong post become five new ones. Since the cards are undated and each card equals one post, the whole system bends to your week.

Who this card set is made for

• Makers and small shop owners who share their own products and often run out of things to say
• Solo content creators who already own a full page planner and want a flexible box for drafts and ideas
• People who love index cards and like laying out a week of posts across the desk
• Anyone just starting to show up online for a small business who wants an easy, quiet routine

Design, sizes and printing

• Minimal, elegant look: white pages and soft blush pink accents that are light on ink
• Generous margins all around, so a home printer will not cut anything off
• True trim sizes of 3 x 5 in (7.6 x 12.7 cm, three to a sheet) and 4 x 6 in (10.2 x 15.2 cm, two to a sheet) with crop marks, laid out on US Letter (8.5 x 11 in) and A4 (210 x 297 mm) paper
• No dates, so you can begin in any week
• Format names stay generic (video, photo, story, carousel), so the cards suit any platform
• When printed double sided and flipped on the long edge, the lined and dot backs match up with the fronts
