In short

How do I plan content around weekly Epic Games Store promotions?

WebRun checks the Epic Games Store every Monday for that week's free games and promotions, adds each one to a content calendar board in Trello, and notifies the content team in Microsoft Teams. Games media and esports organizations get a planned calendar instead of scrambling to cover a promotion after it's already ending.

  • Content gets planned while a promotion is still live
  • The team never learns about a sale after it's already ending
  • Every week's promotions are archived on the Trello board

Questions, answered

Will it claim a free game or make a purchase?

No. WebRun only reads the store front page for public promotions. Claiming a game or making a purchase is left to a person.

How far ahead does it plan content?

It checks the current week's promotions each Monday, giving the content team the full week to plan coverage before an offer ends.

What if a promotion is added mid week?

The weekly check catches whatever is live on Monday. For a promotion added later in the week, run WebRun again or wait for the next scheduled check.

Put this on autopilot.
