The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I need the saved drafts organized so I can find the right post fast. Move the twelve drafts into folders by campaign: Winter Sale, Behind-the-Scenes, Product Teasers. Keep the most polished version of each draft at the top and delete obvious duplicates. Confirm the final draft filenames and which folder each goes into before I post on Friday at 10:00 AM.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I share any of these drafts with the brand team, make approval simple: surface the call-to-action and caption preview at the top of each draft, highlight image quality issues and missing tags, and flag drafts that deviate from the Winter Sale brief. Mark three drafts that are ready to go and three that need copy or trim work.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I opened the drafts and there are ten similar clips labeled 'product_final' but I can't tell which was edited for sound.

I opened the drafts and found ten near-identical items called product_final with small timing differences. Priya in marketing wants the cleanest version but also wants the 15-second cut. I’m worried I’ll pick the wrong one and she’ll send it back, costing us time. Which draft is most likely to be the final cut, what quick checks prove it, and what’s the safest next step so I don’t waste the team’s Friday review window?

Become — change the pattern

Keeping many near-duplicate drafts that clutter the library

Over the last three months I keep saving incremental versions and end up with 30 drafts for the same product. It steals time when pulling assets for campaigns and confuses approvers. I want a habit that reduces duplicates while keeping useful versions. What filing rule and a two-minutes-before-upload checklist will cut the volume by at least half and keep reviewers confident they’re seeing the right draft?

Other social platform work people do in Instagram.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
