One sitting on Monday: a weekly social media routine for Indy businesses

Plenty of Indianapolis owners know they should post more and reply faster, but the week never has room for it. This page lays out a weekly routine built around a single planning session, with Facebook page and group posts, Instagram and Google, and an assistant that covers the evenings.

  • Posts go to your Facebook page and connected groups on the same schedule
  • Instagram, Google and video platforms from the same calendar
  • Routine replies and bookings handled while you work

Free for 7 days, no credit card required

Weekly routine

The idea on this page is a habit, not a second job: one planning session at the start of the week, a quick look at the inbox each day, and software that handles the rest in between.

The routine, day by day

Here is how a small service business might run a normal week. Race month in May and the big convention weeks need extra planning, covered further down.

  1. Monday morningPlan the week in one sitting: a few posts for Instagram and the Facebook page, one of them also sent to the connected Facebook groups, and a Google Business Profile post. Glance at last week's publishing report.
  2. TuesdayFive minutes in the inbox. Approve a couple of drafts, and fix the knowledge base entry behind any answer that came out vague.
  3. WednesdayThe midweek post goes out on its own, including the group version.
  4. ThursdayCheck weekend capacity and block time off if someone is out.
  5. FridayCustomers booked for the weekend receive their reminder emails without anyone lifting a finger.
  6. Sunday nightThe assistant answers "are you open Monday" and books the first slots of the week from your hours and calendar.

A Sunday-night question after a group post

An example conversation, not a real parent. The trial practice is a group session with a fixed number of spots in the club calendar.

Customer: Hi, saw your post in the neighborhood group about fall youth soccer. Is there room for a 9 year old? Can she try a practice first?
Assistant: Hi, thanks for asking. The U10 group practices Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:00 p.m., and there are still spots in this Thursday's trial practice. Should I reserve one?
Customer: yes please. what should she bring?
Assistant: Shin guards, cleats and a water bottle; the club provides the ball. I have a trial spot for Thursday at 6:00 p.m. ready. Once you confirm, a confirmation email with a link to view or cancel comes through.
Customer: confirmed, thank you
Sample conversation. The assistant only answers from the information you give it.

The practice times and the kit list are entries in the club knowledge base. The group post started the conversation; the chat finished it.

Which post goes where in the weekly plan

PostWhere it goesWhy
Weekly update or offerFacebook page and connected groupsWhere many locals trade recommendations

Post only in groups that allow it and follow each group's rules. The same post repeated too often in one group tends to wear members out.

An Indianapolis social media agency, or your own weekly routine?

AYDUKE is not an agency. Nobody posts for you, and it will not write your captions. It is software that turns the routine (scheduling, group posts, replies, bookings) into the weekly habit described above. Agencies remain a good fit for creative work and campaigns.

The owner routine

You plan on Monday, approve drafts when you have a minute, and let reminders and routine answers run on their own. Tone, timing and what the assistant may say stay under your control.

The agency or freelancer routine

Plan the week for several clients in one panel within your plan account limit, with all calendars side by side and XLSX or CSV reports at month end. The free reseller program pays commission for as long as the businesses you refer keep paying.

Setting up the routine once

  1. Connect page, groups, Instagram and Google

    Each connection runs through your own developer app over OAuth, with a step-by-step guide in the panel.

  2. Teach the assistant

    Give it your website: up to 500 pages, refreshed weekly, with Shopify and WooCommerce catalogs read too. Add or import FAQs from Excel or CSV. Manual entries win over the site.

  3. Set up services and capacity

    Trial sessions, estimates or tables, each with a length, buffer and number of spots.

  4. Decide the evening behavior

    Answer and book, collect details only, or point people to your opening hours.

  5. Plan May and convention weeks early

    Race month and the big conventions downtown change hours and demand. Schedule those posts and knowledge base changes weeks ahead.

Try one week of the routine

The demo account is ready at sign-up, with no credit card. Connect your page and a group, plan one week, and see how much of it runs without you.

Frequently asked questions

Can AYDUKE post to any Facebook group in Indianapolis?

It posts to the Facebook groups connected to your account. Post only where the group allows it, and follow each group's rules.

Race month fills our calendar. What does the assistant say when we are fully booked?

It only offers slots that are really open. When a day is full, it says so and offers the next times the calendar shows.

Will customers get a text before their appointment?

Not in the US. Customers get a confirmation email and a reminder email with a link to view or cancel. Your own new-booking alerts arrive by SMS and email.

Is there an AYDUKE office in Indy?

No. AYDUKE is remote software with no local office. Setup happens in the panel with guides, and the contact page reaches us.
