Step 2:  Approve your 6-month Blog Content Calendar

  • Let the Customer Success team know what you think of the 6 blog topics contained in your Content Calendar. If you like them, great! If not, let us know what we should change so we can send you a new set of blog topics to review. If we don't hear back from you in 5 business days, your Content Calendar will be auto-approved and we'll start writing your first blog. You can ask to edit the Content Calendar at any time, even after it's been auto-approved.
