Summer can be unpredictable—but your business doesn’t have to be.
If you’ve ever gone a whole week without posting, emailing, or sharing anything because life got in the way, you’re not alone. Summer gets busy fast.
But even when your schedule is full, your business can still grow—if you have a plan.
That’s what this week’s GetGrowing Weekly Work Session is all about. We’re showing you a simple system to help you stay visible, connect with your audience, and keep building your business all season long—even if your days are packed and you’re not online every minute.
Why Summer Is the Perfect Time to Plan Ahead
During the summer months, routines shift. Vacations, travel, kids at home, longer days—it’s all part of the season. But that shift doesn’t mean your business has to go quiet. In fact, showing up consistently during the summer can help you stand out even more.
That’s why planning ahead is so powerful. When you take a little time to map out what you want to share—whether that’s blog posts, emails, or social media—you’re more likely to stay consistent. And consistency builds trust, which leads to growth.
Instead of scrambling every week to figure out what to say or what to post, you can plan your entire quarter in one sitting—and then spend your time enjoying the summer while your content works in the background.

This Season’s Theme: Summer On the Go
We built this quarter’s content system around the theme “Summer On the Go”—because let’s face it, most people aren’t sitting at their desks right now. They’re on the road, at the pool, or bouncing between activities. That’s real life—and your content can speak to it.
In this week’s training, we show you how to use this theme to:
- Pick blog topics that are helpful and timely for your readers
- Plan emails that connect and invite action without sounding salesy
- Schedule social media posts that match what your audience needs right now
- Choose an event topic that ties it all together—without adding more to your plate
By using a seasonal theme like “Summer On the Go,” you keep your message focused and make it easier to come up with ideas that your readers actually care about.
What You’ll Learn in the Training
This is a working session—you’ll see the entire process from start to finish. No theory. No fluff. Just a clear, repeatable system you can use every month or every quarter to keep your business moving forward.
Here’s what we cover:
- How to choose a content theme for the season
- How to plan 3 months of blog posts, emails, and social posts around that theme
- How to use your Trello Swipe File & Content Planner to stay organized
- How to write with confidence using Write With AI in your GetOiling account
- How to schedule everything in advance so you stay consistent without thinking about it every day
You’ll see exactly how to take an idea, turn it into a blog post, create an email and social post to share it, and schedule it to go live—step by step.
