What this course is about
Welcome to my training on how I use Notion to plan my content. Now I know that there are many tools out there that you could use, and probably do use. Most of the concepts that I am going to cover in this training can be applied to those tools as well. I’ve used some of them myself like ASANA, Trello, and even Microsoft Planner. There are many others that I haven’t used. I know that Airtable is currently very popular and I’m sure that it could also work as the principle of how I create my content can be applied to other tools.

The Space to Create
The real secret to why the 15-minute content planner is so successful is that it has a secret weapon that other planners and calendars don’t have, and that’s the space to create.

The Basics of my content plan
So this is my content. I will go over how I structure my content using Notion. This will also demonstrate why I don’t recommend using a general writing tool like Microsoft Word or Google docs, or any other word processor, because if it doesn’t give you the capability to organise your thoughts and rearrange things and filter and change views, then it’s going to be very limiting.

The Advanced features in my Content Plan

Creating a Content Series and Calendar View
I also use Notion to create advanced views that focus on a group of content that is a little bit more content than a general post. These are things that I refer to as a series.

About Lesson

So this is my content.

I will go over how I structure my content using Notion. This will also demonstrate why I don’t recommend using a general writing tool like Microsoft Word or Google docs, or any other word processor, because if it doesn’t give you the capability to organise your thoughts and rearrange things and filter and change views, then it’s going to be very limiting.


The thing that you will notice in how I structure my content ideas is that they are not organised by Status. Instead, I organise my ideas by the type of content. I make use of the different views Notion lets you create as well as the filter and sort features, which I will take you through in the next lesson.


For this lesson, I cover

  1. How I structure my ideas
  2. Using Properties, such as the date that an idea was created and modified
  3. I show you some of my content ideas that are just at an idea stage
  4. I show you some other content that is more refined and researched
  5. How I add in potential headlines to my content ideas
