Business opening-hours social post checklist
Confirm which location, date range and visit arrangement changed before publishing. Temporary closure, new weekly hours and a special collection window are different updates. Keep the maintained destination and active dated announcements consistent.
Your working document
Review the actual material
- The update names the location it applies to.
- A temporary arrangement includes its actual date range.
- An appointment or collection window is not presented as general shop hours.
- The maintained destination agrees with the announcement.
- Active posts with specific old hours are corrected where necessary.
- People with an existing booking have the actual contact route.
Handle the specific situation
| Situation | Useful information | What to distinguish |
|---|---|---|
| New weekly hours | Days and times starting on the confirmed date | Keep the enduring hours destination current |
| A one-day closure | Exact date and the next actual open arrangement | Do not imply a permanent closure |
| Collection outside normal hours | Which confirmed orders and window it applies to | Separate collection from ordinary walk-in visits |
| Multiple locations | The affected branch | Check each location's destination separately |
Complete the handoff
An image reading 'today' becomes unclear when shared later. Use the actual date when the information is time-sensitive. Test the destination from the post as a new visitor, then confirm an existing customer can find the route for their own booking or collection question.
