This is where everything changes. Enter Content Planning 101, a course uniquely designed for female content creators and solopreneurs.

It's not about simply pushing your content to the next level in the traditional sense.

It’s about reimagining what that level looks like—crafting a content strategy that amplifies your voice, elevates your brand, and connects with your audience in profoundly impactful ways.

Grow Your Business on Your Terms: With a clear content strategy, focus on what truly grows your business. Explore new opportunities, knowing your content is doing its job.

Savor Life's Joys: End your day with what brings you happiness, unburdened by the demands of creating a lot of content on the fly. Get more time to spend at your kids' events, enjoy family dinners, or celebrate milestones fully present.

See  what students are saying about Content Planning 101 and other content creation workshops and courses:

"I always seem to be planning my content on the fly and decide to do "whatever," so this seemed like a well-thought-out system (and not just winging it).


The biggest light bulb went off when you talked about planning content around things that I'm selling or promoting that month. Then it seemed obvious what content I needed to create; then, I just had to fill in the blanks with topics that were already in my "vault" of content ideas. I can finally batch!!


I've planned out my whole quarter, and if I wanted to, I could plan out the whole year!!


I would absolutely recommend this training to anyone who struggles to know "what to talk about" in any given month or week and wants to plan things ahead."

Do you constantly struggle with...

writing blog posts, social media posts, and emails to your list at the last minute because of time constraints like:

Taking the gets to endless afterschool activities.

Make sure dinner is on the table, and OMG, did you forget to pack their lunch? Did they get breakfast? 

Endless client work

Next week's blog post and oopsy the last two weeks too!

You may feel like you're playing a never-ending game of content catchup. It's like being on a weirdo game show where the prize is always just ONE more blog post out of reach.


Even as an expert content creator with tons of experience under my belt, I always felt like I was in the weeds and playing catch up with my content creation process.


Part of my problem was getting organized and productive; to make matters worse, I felt guilty for not doing enough to achieve my goals. 


I felt like I was stuck and overwhelmed, which was not helpful at all. Bullying myself didn't work; it just made me feel worse. And it felt like ALL I did was create content.


As a freelance writer and blogger, I felt like I was ALWAYS creating content. And I always felt rushed, especially with social media and email content, knowing I wasn’t giving it the attention it needed.


If you've ever stared at your computer screen, thinking it was mocking you with its blankness, you're not alone. 


We've all been there wondering if there's a secret content club we weren't invited to. Spoiler alert: there isn't, but Content Planning 101 is your all-access pass!


You may feel like a juggler now struggling to keep dozens of balls in the air - each representing a piece of overdue content—to a maestro conducting a symphony, where every note of content plays out in perfect harmony and timing. 

You don't need to worry anymore because your problem is almost solved!

Heather Ritchie

 I’m Heather Ritchie, a Certified Content Marketing Strategist, and SEO content writer. I've been writing SEO-optimized content for my own blog and clients for years now.


I use this exact content planning process to easily plan a year’s worth of content in one day. Now, I’ve packaged up everything I know about content planning in this in-depth training so you can be more efficient with your content planning.


This process helped me go from being stressed out and overwhelmed like a new mother of sextuplets to getting content created WAY ahead of time.

Writer's Life for You Has been Featured In World-Class Publications, like
YOU MAY BE WONDERING WHY YOU SHOULD BOTHER
WITH CONTENT MARKETING AND PLANNING….

A Semrush survey showed that 97% of respondents claimed content marketing was essential to their marketing strategy.


 Content marketing (creating and sharing blog posts, social media posts, etc.) answers your audience’s questions and positions you as their go-to expert.


 It also helps you build trust, generate more leads and sales, and improves your overall conversions.


 No more waiting until the last moment and hurrying through those social media posts for your launch, meaning you don’t put time into your messaging, aka you’re leaving money on the table.


 A content calendar provides an overall view that helps you brainstorm topics better, maintain consistency, and ensure you don’t duplicate content.


 When done right, content marketing helps you show up in front of your audience when they need solutions you can provide.

What some of my students say about all my courses and digital products:

I bought Content Planning 101 when it originally launched as a Paid Live Training, so the price was an instant yes, and since I've been in your world for over a year and a half, you're my go-to for all things content creation.


Every product I have of yours has practically been a version of you guiding me every single step of the way through something, and I knew Content Planning 101 would be incredible like your other products. One thing that I was massively intrigued about, which I'd never heard of before, was the method you use yourself for content planning.


I was really overwhelmed and stressed about content planning because it's been so long since I've written a blog post that I lost confidence, and planning isn't my strongest point. But I know I needed to get my arse into gear and start again, but this time with planning and a strategy in place.


Now, I feel relieved and like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders because the entire process of content planning is laid out in a way that's really easy to understand and take action with.


My biggest takeaway was the strategy you go into detail about; it is GENIUS!

"Thank you, Heather, you're the best!"

Everyone always talks about Niche down, and No one explains how to do it. After taking this course, I was able to pick a profitable niche and feel confident in my choice. This course gave me tools I will be able to use throughout my business. Thank you, Heather, you are the best!!

~Tiffanie Mayo

"You need the Niche Ninja Mini-Course!"

Everyone talks about "You need to niche down" or "choose a profitable niche," and Heather makes it easy to understand HOW to go about doing both of these. Her workbook walks you through the process of how to dig a bit deeper and get to the core of choosing a niche you'll want to spend time writing about and working with.

~ Kelli Shipp

What some of my writing clients say:

"Heather is an amazing writer and such a tremendous resource for my blog. Her knowledge and acumen of SEO, keyword research, and blog writing have been an invaluable addition to helping me grow. Heather's contributions are always complete, fully researched, delivered on time, and above and beyond.


 In fact, often, Heather adds more to the post than the original outline, having found added value through her thorough research. You can count on the highest quality with Heather. And best of all, Heather clearly cares about the success of the posts she has written for me, and many of these posts rank on the first page of Google. She focuses on quality, and it shines through in every aspect of her work."

And Keri recently sent me this update for a post that had slipped down in Google ranking: "I just had to tell you what a fantastic job you do! You took my Harry Potter at Universal article that was hovering around 100 on Google, and yesterday it was at 9. Thank you so much for all you do!! And that's not the first time one of your updates significantly improved a ranking."

Frequently Asked Questions

How can we help you decide if Content Planning 101 is right for you?

  • What if I’m just starting out?
    As long as you know some of your competitors, have a brand you want to grow, and plan on using content, this method will work for you. It will still work if you need to do a lot of competitor research or find the right tools and other resources; it just may take you a little longer to create your content plan. But it won’t take weeks or months. In fact, if you’re new, you’ll start out planning your content the right way.
  • When do I get access?
    Immediately! As soon as you pay, you'll receive an email from Thrivecart with your login details.
  • Do you have an affiliate program?
    Yes! You'll be invited to earn 40% commissions on every referral you make as soon as you purchase.
  • Do I need any expensive software?
    Nope! I’ll let you know the tools I use in the course, but you can do everything with free tools and the ones I provide you with the training.
  • How long will this take?
    The original training itself is around 60 minutes. And the course may take a few hours to get through since I coursified the initial training.

    Once you go through the training, you’ll have everything you need to get started + the resources you need. If you need to come up with a launch and promotional calendar first, you should still be able to create a content plan in two days or less. It takes me less than a day.

    The more information you have, the faster the process will be. You just need to commit to the time to plan things out, but you can do that in phases if you need to and still be light years ahead.
  • With all the free information out there, why should I invest in a course to write better content?
    The significant benefit of buying courses is that they help speed up the process by teaching you how to avoid mistakes. Plus, it would take a long time to piece everything together from free information. I’ve saved you the trouble and put it in a neat little package with a bow.

    If I had an affordable option that showed me the shortcuts when I started, I would have gladly used it instead of wasting time trying to create a content plan the hard way.
  • What if I don’t learn anything new? Do you give refunds?
    If you feel like you didn't learn anything new, let me know within seven days, and I will refund your money in full.
  • I’ve got another question.
    Great! Shoot me an email at heather@writerslifeforyou.com, and I will be happy to answer any questions you have.

More Student Success Stories

"The Niche Ninja Mini-Course walked me through the entire process of choosing a profitable niche, from identifying my ideal reader to researching each niche to determine whether it's in demand and how competitive it is.


While working through the course, I used the beautifully designed worksheets to come up with a list of profitable niche ideas for my next blog and finally narrowed it down to a topic that is both in demand and one that I would enjoy writing about.


If you've been spinning your wheels trying to decide on a blog or freelance writing niche, stop now and take this course!" ~ Tonya Mickelson

"I bought your course LinkedIn Marketing Magic when I purchased the Writer's Toolkit Bundle from Ultimate Bundles. I am not actually a content writer; I'm a proofreader, but your course translated well to my career needs.


"Your course has proven invaluable to me. I had no idea how to approach this platform, and now I feel confident. Well...as confident as an introvert who hates putting herself out there can be anyway! I started sending out personalized connection requests to strangers last month. I am happy to say about half to two-thirds of them have accepted to date.


What has me really staggered is that in approximately the last ten days I have been receiving connection requests on a regular basis! Including from writers, the very people I set out to reach. (Although I admit I have been surprised that only one or two have bothered to send messages with their request. That in itself shows me how valuable it is to personalize connection requests.)

I see it's clearly time to start doing some cold-pitching. I have you to thank for that. I just have to work up the nerve to try this next new step...."  ~ Michelle

"I absolutely love the Standard Content Planning Outline! All your blog writing tools seem to help me organize my content writing. Thank you for sharing." ~ Kim


"I watched your workshop a couple of days ago and started using the Trello board to plan my Q1. It’s feeling great to have a plan!" ~ Katie S.
