The Challenge: The High Cost of Content Consistency
At RSL Media Hub, maintaining a steady stream of blog content is essential for demonstrating our expertise in automation, SEO, and digital strategy. However, relying on traditional methods quickly became inefficient and expensive. At an average cost of $75 per article, publishing just four posts a month totaled $300 per month, or $3,600 annually in raw copywriting fees.
The total cost, including internal coordination and editing time, was estimated to approach $18,000 a year—a massive expenditure for any growing business. Beyond cost, the system lacked two key factors: Time (manual editing and publishing slowed the pipeline) and Consistency (maintaining a reliable weekly schedule was a constant struggle).
Key Takeaway from Challenge
The core problem was the scaling bottleneck of human labor in a low-margin content production process, confirming the need for an efficient, repeatable system to maintain authority.

We solved this problem internally by designing an autonomous blog creation pipeline using no-code tools. This exact system is now available to clients looking to save on content costs while boosting consistency.
Phase 1: Workflow Foundation & AI Integration
- We established a front-end form (Typeform) to capture blog topics, primary/secondary keywords, and internal/external links.
- The data feeds into a central record (Google Sheets) for tracking.
- The core action uses a custom prompt to instruct ChatGPT to generate SEO-optimized outlines and full posts.

Phase 2: Automation & Publishing
The entire system is orchestrated by Make.com. Once a topic is entered into the initial Typeform, the workflow takes over. The generated content is automatically organized and saved in Google Drive, and the final post is published directly to WordPress, completely eliminating manual copying, pasting, and scheduling.
