Authority isn't one viral post — it's showing up with real value, in enough places, often enough, that trust builds. This planner turns the 7-11-4 guideline into a plan you can run: content pillars, a 2-week calendar, the trust assets that establish you, and a weekly rhythm you can keep. Enter your niche below and watch it build.

What this is
The 7-11-4 idea — popularised from buyer-behaviour research — is a rule of thumb: people tend to trust a creator after roughly 7 hours of content, 11 touchpoints, across 4 places. It's a guide, not a guarantee. This tool takes your niche and turns that guide into a concrete plan: what to make, where to post it, what proves you know your stuff, and a cadence you can actually sustain — because consistency, not intensity, is what earns authority.
The tool
Fill what you can. Anything in yellow is a spot for your own specifics.
The clearer your niche and goal, the sharper the plan.
[like this] = replace with your own specifics.
Why it works
A few minutes of content rarely convinces anyone. The plan points you at the long-form and signature pieces that let someone spend real time with your thinking.
People trust what's familiar. A steady cadence — not a one-off burst — is what gets you in front of the same person enough times to matter.
Showing up across a few places means you catch people where they already are, and a follower on one becomes a follower across several.
