  • Fillables — Replace all fillable text (city, brokerage, agent name, phone/email, stats).

  • Verify data — Double-check all local dates, stats, and numbers before posting.

  • Captions — Written to feel natural and human. Always personalize with your own voice, stories, or local insights — avoid overloading with bullets or emojis.

  • Slide count — You may remove extra slides if needed, but always keep at least 6 slides minimum so the story and engagement flow aren’t lost.

  Final touches:

  • Branding — Add your logo before posting (this is required).

  • Colors — You may adjust the colors to fit your brand, but refer to my training for best practices to keep the design polished.

  • Music — Always add music to every carousel, story, or reel — it dramatically boosts reach in the algorithm.
