   Post one useful carousel every week

   Consistency beats volume when you only have 3 hours.

2. 2

   Show your templates in use, not just the files

   People buy what they can picture using.

3. 3

   Put one clear link in your bio to your template shop

   Make it easy to buy when someone is interested.

• Set up a simple Canva brand kit30–45 min

  Pick your colors and fonts, and save 3–5 carousel templates you can reuse.

• Organize your folders15 min

  Create one place for ideas, drafts and finished posts so nothing gets lost.

You do this once. It isn't part of the weekly three hours.

• Monday: (~45 min) Use the Ideation prompt to list 10 ideas for busy Filipino employees starting a side business. Pick 1.
• Wednesday: (~1h15) Draft and design 1 piece that naturally shows your Canva templates.
• Friday: (~1h) Caption and schedule it in Buffer, Metricool, or the platform's native scheduler. Spend 10 min noting what got the most saves or comments.

The full version includes a ready-to-copy AI prompt for each step.

• "3 branding mistakes that make a new side business look inconsistent" — explain each mistake and show a simple fix.
• "From plain to polished" — a before-and-after design using one Canva template.
• "Your first business post in 20 minutes" — customize a template after work.
• "How I turn one template into three Instagram posts" — a faceless screen recording.
• "What's included in this Canva template pack?" — the layouts, editable elements and who they're useful for.
