Turn one article into a week of LinkedIn posts
I write on LinkedIn regularly, and the posts that do well are rarely new ideas. They are one good idea shown from a different angle. AI is excellent at finding the angles you are too close to see.
Steps
- Pick one piece you are proud of: an article, a talk transcript or a report.
- Paste the first prompt with the full text to find the angles.
- Choose the five angles you like, then run the second prompt.
- Rewrite the first line of every post yourself. It is the only line most people read.
- Spread the posts across the week rather than posting them all at once.
The prompts
Copy it, then replace the [highlighted parts] with your own details.
Here is a piece of content I wrote: [PASTE THE FULL TEXT] Find eight different angles for a LinkedIn post, each one able to stand on its own. For example: a surprising number, a mistake, a how-to, a strong opinion, a before-and-after. Give each angle a one-line summary. Do not write the posts yet.
Write LinkedIn posts for angles [NUMBERS YOU CHOSE]. My audience: [WHO READS YOUR POSTS] Rules for each post: - The first line must make sense on its own and make someone want to click "see more" - Short paragraphs of one or two sentences - One idea per post, under 180 words - End with a question or a simple takeaway, not "thoughts?" - No hashtags in the body, and no emojis at the start of lines
What a good result looks like
An illustrative example. The company and figures are made up.
Make it better
- Paste two of your best past posts and ask it to match their style.
- Ask for three alternative first lines per post and pick the strongest.
- Keep one post as a plain link to the original. The others earn the click.
