30-Day Calendar
60 posts · filter, expand, and track as you film
Weekly Schedule
All TGW production in one grid · course mornings · Discord drops · podcast · TikTok batches
This is your full week mapped out — what's recording, what's editing, what's dropping, and when. Built around your actual constraints: work 8:30am–5pm, gym Mon/Thu/Fri evenings, partner time Tue/Wed evenings, Saturday afternoons free for workouts, and the protected 5:30–6:30am course recording window Mon–Fri.
Two tracks running in parallel: regular content production (Discord, podcast, TikTok) and the 12-week course sprint. Once the course launches, the 5:30–6:30am course slot frees up.

Day load (production hours)
Output per week
| Channel | Output | Source |
|---|---|---|
| TikTok recorded | 7 posts | Sat batch (4) + Sun greenscreen (3 of 5 used) |
| TikTok podcast clips | 14 posts | Sat morning edit session from Sun podcast |
| TikTok total | 21 posts | 3/day × 7 days |
| Discord videos | 3 drops | Mon Market Open · Wed Deep Dive · Fri Money Moves |
| Podcast | 1 episode | Sun 1pm (or Live AMA monthly) |
| Course lessons (Darrien) | ~3–5 | Weekday mornings 5:30–6:30a |
| Course lessons (Mike) | ~3 | Sat 9a–12p batch |
You record ~1 hr of podcast/week × 3 weeks = 3 hours of podcast/month. From that, you cut 60 clips (2 per day × 30 days). That's 1 clip per ~3 minutes of source — totally feasible because podcast clips are 30–60 seconds each.
The Saturday morning edit session (7–8:30a) is the bottleneck. If you fall behind, the daily TikTok rhythm breaks. Protect that block.
Strategy Playbook
What the data says — distilled from your actual top 5 posts
Your top 5 posts (the real data)
| 2.2M | "3 ways the government shutdown will affect you" | News reaction · greenscreen |
| 124.3K | "Top stocks to buy now for 2025" | Trade alert · talking head |
| 92.8K | Candlestick pattern for trading | Education · greenscreen chart |

| 27.5K | "How I bought a Tesla under $X" | Case study · talking head |
The 5 winning patterns
Pillar mix (v2)
Your top posts pull people in with credit, funding, real estate, and "how I bought X". But the Discord pitch is trading/stock picks. That's a switch, not a funnel — viewers feel the bait-and-switch and bounce.
Bridge message: "We help you fix your credit → get approved for funding → open a brokerage with that capital → then trade it." That's one ladder, not two products.
CTA playbook
Soft CTA · default
"Link in bio for the alert list." Use on P1, P3, P5, P6.
Hard CTA · weekend only
"DM me 'GEN' and I'll send the Discord link." Use on Sunday PM and milestone posts.
Comment-trigger DM
"Comment [WORD] — I'll DM you the checklist." Gets you past the 'link in bio' tax and into 1:1 conversations.
Filming Batch Planner
3 posts/day · 1 recorded TikTok + 2 podcast clips · weekend-batched so weeknights stay free
Weeknights are protected: gym Mon/Thu/Fri, partner time Tue/Wed. So all batched filming happens Saturday and Sunday. The 30 recorded TikToks in your script bank now stretch across ~60 days at 1/day instead of 30 days at 2/day — same content, longer runway, less weekly filming pressure.
Daily output stays at 3 posts via podcast clips: 14 clips/week pulled from each Sunday's 1-hour podcast. That's the new engine.
Batch groups
Weekly template
| Day / Time | Session | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Sat 7–8:30am | Podcast clip editing | 14 clips |
| Sat 9am–12pm | Mike course recording (with Darrien on camera) | 3 lessons |
| Sat 1–2pm | TikTok Talking Head batch | 4 posts |
| Sat PM (every 2 wks) | Skit batch | 2–4 posts |
| Sun 1–2pm | Podcast (or AMA monthly) | 1 episode |
| Sun 2–3:30pm | Discord Deep Dive recording | 1 flagship |
| Sun 3:30–4pm | Discord Mon + Fri shorts | 2 shorts |
| Sun 4–5pm | TikTok Greenscreen batch | 5 posts |
| Sun 5–6pm (as needed) | Course joint intros/recaps | 1–2 modules |
| Mon–Fri 5:30–6:30am | Course solo recording (Darrien) | 1 lesson/day |
Metrics Tracker
Log views/likes/comments per post · benchmark against your 300 median
Realistic 30-day targets
| Week | Avg views/post | Discord joins | How we get there |
|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | ~300 (baseline) | +1 | Establish rhythm. Don't chase viral yet. |
| Week 2 | 500–1K | +2 | News reactions start hitting. Comment-trigger DM CTA on weekends. |
| Week 3 | 1K–3K | +3 | Double down on what's working. Kill formats averaging <200. |
| Week 4 | 3K–10K | +5 | One post breaks 25K+. Hard CTA on milestone posts. |
At a 0.1% TikTok → Discord conversion rate (reasonable for finance niches), you need ~10,000 collective views to drive 10 joins. That's achievable if even 2–3 posts break 3K this month.
The single biggest lever is matching the Discord pitch to the content that pulled them in — bridge credit content to trading via the funding ladder.
