Cadence Clash: batch a month vs post in real time

Cadence Clash: batch a month vs post in real time
Neither is 'right' — they fail in opposite ways. When to lean each way:
—
Batch monthly — best for evergreen pillars; you protect deep-work blocks and never miss a slot [framework]
—
Real-time — best for newsjacking and trend hooks where a 3-day lag kills the post [tactic]
—
The 80/20 split most pros run — batch 80% of evergreen, leave 20% of slots open for the week's signal
—
Failure modes — batching goes stale; real-time burns you out and skips planning entirely
—
The tell — if your 'timely' posts are mostly evergreen anyway, batch harder
