We have a posting rhythm of one per day, each post last one week then it auto deletes and auto reposts once a week. We have this set to happen continuously until we turn it off.

Auto posting on repeat to your facebook business page can become very repetitive. So it's important to keep in mind that what your post needs to be engaging in one way shape or form and without posting the same thing to frequently. The only type of posts I have set to repeat on my fb page are my informational blog posts that cover subjects that I feel should be quickly and easily found without having to scroll for 20 minutes. We consistently have new people visiting our fb page and my auto/repeat posts are for those new people to easily find. The repost frequency is once a month per blog post. Below is a screenshot of one of my FB auto post/repeat posts.
It's simple, straight forward and leads people to the blog on our website. The blog post itself is full of information and answers many questions prior to be asked. Once a person is done reading the blog they should have little to know questions about the topic.

Good Posting Practices | Things to Consider When Creating Posts for Any Platform
Create your artwork with correct aspect ratios for each social platform.
On Google My Business, when creating offers or any other CTA "call to actions", set them up to run for one week then auto delete & auto repost. You can also do every 2 weeks and run the offer for 2 weeks then auto delete and auto repost etc and so on.
On Facebook Business Pages, do not auto repeat the same post to often. No less than 30 days apart.
Create rich engaging content. Excluding memes, use only high quality images, graphics, videos, etc.
Post about subjects that bring value to your followers. People love to feel like they are gaining something. And they are if you provide quality, informational, educational content.
Memes are a great auto post idea. Do one post every Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday or what ever day, on the same day of every week, for the entire year! I'm sure you can find 52 memes that make sense for your Facebook Business Page! If your business page is about detailing, find memes related to auto detailing and cars in general. By the time a year rolls around and that first meme reposts itself, your followers have long forgotten about it plus all your new followers will be seeing it for the first time. After its set up, you got 52 posts a year that can repost for ever.
Write down a list of post ideas that can be repeated. Then organize time to sit down and get it done.
Organize days for specific categories of posts. For example, Mondays is Meme Mondays, Every first Tuesday of the month is Paint Correction Blog Day. Every first Wednesday is How to Maintain & Wash Your Vehicle Blog Post Day, and so and so forth.
