The Social Media Manager is a calendar for your organic posts, nothing more and nothing less. You bring creatives you already made in the Studios, drop them onto the days and times you want, and the calendar sends them to your social channels. It never buys media or spends an ad budget. Paid campaigns live in their own place, the Ads Manager.
This chapter walks the whole loop, start to finish. You connect your channels, build a post from your project library, handle carousels and the quirks of each platform, set a schedule, and then confirm whether a post really went live and where to read how it did.
Be honest with yourself about what is proven. The calendar and the composer are solid and get real use. Publishing and organic performance are younger and have barely been exercised, so each lesson tells you plainly what works today and points you at the exact place to check a result instead of assuming it happened.
After this chapter you can ask Atlas to author a durable workflow that either schedules creatives you already made or generates a batch and then schedules it, and read its status on the Workflows page.
