    Topic budgets & content creation planning

    Why content budgets fail without an intent map

    Most content budgets are split by channel or by team headcount. Almost none are split by intent coverage. The result is predictable: heavy spend on the formats the team is comfortable producing, and structural under-spend on the intents that actually convert. This page is a planning framework, not a production service.
