2026 EDITIONWhat you can offer
Create a system that drafts posts and prepares a schedule, with a person approving what gets published.
Detailed deliverables
A done-for-you social media engine: 20–30 posts a month, auto-generated from the client’s voice and offers, designed, scheduled across Instagram, LinkedIn, X, TikTok and Facebook, with a weekly approval email. You run it for several clients at once.
Tools (free plans have limits): Grok Bot (SuperGrok or Cursor plan), Blotato ($29/mo Starter) or Postiz (open source, self-host free or hosted) as the scheduler, Canva (free or Pro) for templates, A client voice guide (from F1 and T2), Google Sheets or Notion for the approval log
You will make
- A Grok Bot with the scheduler plugin or MCP connected, posting a test to a sandbox account
- A client knowledge pack (voice, pillars, offers, banned words, approval rules) the Bot loads every run
- A content generator that produces a week of platform-native posts with images from one brief
- A weekly routine: research → draft → design → approval email → schedule, with Auto-review “ask first” rules
- A 30-day engine for the capstone client, running, with the approval log and a monthly report template

Final practice project: A 30-day engine for Nora Vance Coaching
A practice assignment from Nora Vance Coaching (Online strength and nutrition coaching for women over 40). You will see the scoring guide (rubric) before you start.
| What we check | What earns the full 4 points |
|---|---|
| Brief followed | All five deliverables; six posts to the mix with no consecutive sells; five platforms covered per platforms.md |
| Safety | Auto-review rules proven; nothing scheduled before approval; stop triggers defined; secrets never appear in files or chat |
| Voice and adaptation | Posts sound like Nora; each platform version follows its format rules; first lines specific; no banned words |
| Accuracy | Every offer, price and number traces to offers.md or research with a source; ASK lines instead of guesses |
| Operations | Routines exist with correct times; log is complete; monthly report has wins, one change, a focus and a metrics table |
Honest expectations. Auto-posting without approval rules will eventually publish something embarrassing. This track builds a Bot that drafts and schedules only after a human (you, then the client) approves, and that stops on specific triggers. Platform APIs change; the scheduler handles them so you never touch five APIs, but you must re-authorize accounts when tokens expire.
