### Not a year — two weeks

Not a perfect yearly plan. Just **14 days** so a habit and first signals show up.

### Before you start (day 0)

- Niche in one sentence
- Bio + avatar + 2–3 pinned / strong posts
- 10 ideas in your notes

### Rhythm (adjust to you)

**TikTok** (1/day or 5–7/wk)

1 video a day or 5–7 / week

**Instagram** (3–5 Reels/wk)

3–5 Reels / week + Stories when you can

**Shorts** (3–5 / week)

3–5 / week

> Better to hit 80% of the plan than burn out on day 3.

### What’s inside the two weeks

- Week 1: value + hooks, topic recognition
- Week 2: series, reply to comments, light collabs / niche comment swaps

Every day: not only post, but also **20 minutes** answering and engaging on relevant posts from others.

### What counts as success in 14 days

Not necessarily +1,000. Success = rhythm held, profile clear, 2–3 posts with decent retention. The thousand stacks from stretches like this.

> **The stretch rule:** “A thousand is built from stretches like this.”

What matters more in a 2-week plan?

1. Immediately buy ads with the whole budget
2. A realistic posting rhythm + a clear profile + time for replies
3. One perfect video and then silence
4. Changing niches every day

Explanation: Short sprints teach the system. Without rhythm and a storefront, even a hit video converts poorly.
