Everything a content marketer does in a week: the calendar, the briefs, the drafts in your voice, the posts that carry each piece to every channel, and the refresh when an article slips. You approve; Ballad keeps it moving and shows which pieces brought signups.
A founder voice and a brand voice, each with the terms it uses and never uses, learned from every edit you make.
Plans weeks ahead across every channel, keeps each collection's cadence, and fills the calendar overnight.
Comparisons, guides, case studies and original data, written from a short interview with you, never from invented anecdotes.
Every article can become a proposed week of posts, threads and image cards that carry it across your channels.
Publishes to your own domain, watches rankings and traffic, and rewrites a piece in place when it starts to slip.
Every link carries its post, so each piece is judged on the signups it brought, not the likes.
The part of a content marketer's job that takes longest to hand over is how the company sounds. Ballad keeps two voices, one for the founder and one for the brand, and holds every draft to them before you see it.
We shipped invoicing in a week. Then spent three months fixing edge cases. A thread on what 'done' actually means for a fintech product. 🧵
1/ Week one: happy path works. Send an invoice, get paid. We celebrated. Nobody had tried a refund yet.
2/ Week three: partial payments. A customer paid $1,000 against a $1,200 invoice and our system called it 'unpaid'. Their finance team called us something else.
Set a rhythm for each collection and each channel, and Ballad plans against it: which voice says what, where, and in what format. You open a calendar with drafts on it, not a blank grid and a content meeting.
Most AI articles are forgettable because nothing in them is true of your company. Ballad writes depth pieces from a short interview: it asks you three to five questions, and your answers are the only anecdotes, numbers and names the article may use.
Everything long-form publishes to your own site, so the search equity compounds under your name. Ballad also watches the back catalogue: when an older article loses its ranking or its traffic, it proposes a refresh and rewrites the piece in place, at the same URL.
A content calendar is only as good as what it brings in. Every link Ballad publishes carries its post, and one line on your site follows the visitor to the signup, so each piece has a number next to it that means something.
What one job learns, the others use: the calendar writes from the positioning, the launches measure through the same signals, and the analysis changes the plan.
Point Ballad at your site and connect your channels. The first week's drafts are waiting in your Inbox, in your voice, before you'd have finished the content brief.
