Setup guide

1. Buffer: Create a Buffer account and confirm that it supports each channel and post format you need. Connect the accounts you manage and set posting schedules. Create drafts first and inspect previews, mentions, media crops and any notification-based publishing requirements before scheduling approved posts. (Open Buffer instructions)
2. Canva: Set up Canva with your brand colors, fonts, and logo, then create reusable templates sized for each social channel. Export an approved test asset and attach it to a Buffer draft to confirm that its crop and text remain legible in the final preview. (Open Canva instructions)
3. Zapier: Create a Zap that watches your approved-content source and adds the post copy, media link, and target channel to Buffer. Add a filter so drafts are never published, test the workflow with one approved item, and keep automatic publishing disabled until the Buffer draft is verified. (Open Zapier instructions)
