Design a Notion content planning database. Channels and content types: [CHANNELS_AND_TYPES]. Team and roles: [TEAM]. Publishing rhythm: [RHYTHM]. Approval steps: [APPROVALS]. Metrics we review: [METRICS]. Define properties: Title, Status (Idea, Briefed, Drafting, Review, Scheduled, Published), Channel (multi-select), Author, Reviewer, Publish date, Campaign (relation), Link, Goal, Result notes. Views: Board by status, Calendar by publish date, Table by campaign, My content. Provide a content brief template (audience, goal, key message, call-to-action, sources, checks), a sample row with invented data, and an editorial checklist on each page (facts checked, claims sourced, images licensed, accessibility, links tested). Explain counting posts per month with a rollup or view and on-time rate (published on or before planned date divided by planned): for example 11 published of 13 planned is 84.6 percent. Do not add properties no one will fill in; offer a minimal version of six properties and keep it light enough for a team of three. Mark property types and formulas I should check [VERIFY].
