This capability inherits the Lifecycle Marketing Specialist's pricing model. The role's launch fee + monthly retainer + role-level usage cover every capability under the role. Adding this capability to an active deployment does not change the price.
What this capability handles
Social Scheduling solves a steady drain on lifecycle teams: the channel goes quiet because someone has to pull assets, write channel-native copy, check rights, and post on time, every week. When that work competes with everything else, cadence slips. This capability pulls approved content, drafts posts that fit each platform, and schedules them to your cadence, with tagging, asset rights, and post-window discipline enforced. It is built for a lifecycle or social marketer at a 40 to 500 person company who needs the channel held without drift. The outcome is social cadence adherence above 95%. Operationally it runs a fixed sequence: it pulls the asset from the approved library, drafts the channel-native post, schedules it into the right window, applies tagging, and logs the action. It works across your social platform, your CMS or doc repo, and your marketing hub. The inputs it relies on are the approved content library, your documented channel rules, the posting cadence, and the current rights policy. Per post it produces a scheduled, tagged, channel-appropriate item with its action recorded. The decision logic is constrained to your standards: it uses channel rules, cadence targets, and rights policy to schedule posts that fit each platform, so a post built for one channel is not pasted unchanged into another. Governance is explicit. When a rights restriction is flagged, a partner mention raises a concern, or the tone deviates from policy, the item routes to the marketer for review rather than going live. A human owns publishing on the sensitive cases, and every action is logged and reviewable, so you can audit what was posted, when, and against which rule. Typical fit is a team where the social library is approved, channel rules are documented, and the rights policy is current; those three keep posts on policy and inside their windows. In volume terms this is a high-frequency capability: it represents 30-40% of role volume, and the cadence it protects accounts for 20-30% of role impact, defined as social cadence held without drift. The value is a channel that stays consistently active and on policy, with the marketer reviewing only the rights, partner, and tone exceptions that warrant a human decision, instead of manually preparing and timing every post across platforms.

When this capability shows up
Patterns where social scheduling is part of the launch set, with volume and pricing anchored to each company profile.
Mid-market SaaS with segmented nurture motion
SaaS · 120-300
300 / mo
A 200-person B2B SaaS company runs 300 campaign or signal actions a month across email and social. Segmentation exists but campaigns ship late; cadence slips on social.
Lifecycle Marketing Specialist activates email drafting and social scheduling. Segment-aware drafts land on time; social ships to cadence; marketers shift to tuning and review.
Expected outcomes at this volume: campaign cadence doubled, draft-to-send cycle down 40-60%, social cadence adherence above 95%.

eCommerce brand with seasonal event and launch cadence
eCommerce · 80-250
600 / mo
A 120-person eCommerce brand runs 600 actions a month across email, social, events, and launches. Competitor moves catch the team late. Event ROI is estimated rather than measured.
Lifecycle Marketing Specialist activates all four capabilities. Campaigns and social run on cadence; event-to-pipeline closes with recommended motions; competitive intel ships as a daily digest.
Expected outcomes: cadence held at 95%+, event-to-pipeline conversion held or improving, competitive-signal lead time in days rather than weeks.

Lifecycle Marketing Specialist activates all four capabilities. Segment-aware drafts ship on cadence; social runs without gaps; event ROI closes to pipeline; competitive intelligence delivers a daily digest to the growth lead.
Expected outcomes: campaign cadence 2-3x prior baseline, draft-to-send cycle cut 40-60%, event-to-pipeline held or improving, competitive-signal lead time in days rather than weeks.
