Write a LinkedIn post in my voice as a content writer. Build it from the material below, using only claims, examples, client details, and results I am allowed to share. Do not invent a personal story, a quote, a campaign outcome, or an opinion I did not give you. [POST IDEA OR SOURCE MATERIAL] [TARGET READER] [MY VOICE AND POSITIONING] [PROOF OR EXAMPLES I CAN SHARE] [POST GOAL] First, identify one precise reader problem or tension in my material. Choose a useful post angle: a field observation, a practical method, a contrarian but supportable point, a behind-the-scenes lesson, or a mini case study. Do not make the post about content marketing in general.
Write one primary post of 180-260 words with: - An opening two lines that establish a concrete tension, observation, or result without clickbait. - A short middle that gives context and a specific example, process, or decision. - A useful takeaway in 3-5 scannable lines that the reader could apply. - A closing question only if it invites informed experience rather than generic agreement. Use short paragraphs and natural sentence variation. Avoid faux vulnerability, empty declarations, excessive line breaks, hashtags unless I ask for them, and calls to hire me unless that is the stated goal. If I am describing a client project, protect confidential names, numbers, and strategy details according to my notes. Then provide two alternate opening hooks with different angles, plus a one-sentence note on the audience each hook may attract. Before answering, check that the post has one clear point rather than several loosely connected tips. Flag any sentence that makes an outcome or expertise claim not supported by my inputs.
Fill in
| Placeholder | What to enter | Example |
|---|---|---|
| [POST IDEA OR SOURCE MATERIAL] | Paste notes, a draft, an article insight, or a specific work observation you want to turn into a post. | Writers often start with a clever opening before they know the reader’s next decision. In a recent SaaS onboarding article, the useful change came from moving the decision criteria into the first third of the piece. |
| [TARGET READER] | Describe the people you want the post to reach and what they care about. | Content leads at B2B software companies who commission articles but struggle to turn traffic into qualified conversations. |
| [MY VOICE AND POSITIONING] | Describe your writing style, professional focus, and phrases or tones to avoid. | Practical, observant, lightly opinionated. I write long-form B2B content for product-led software teams. Avoid hype, “hot take,” and sales language. |
| [PROOF OR EXAMPLES I CAN SHARE] | List approved examples, process details, client anonymity rules, and verified results. | I can describe the article anonymously and say it reduced revision rounds from three to one. I cannot name the client or share conversion figures. |
| [POST GOAL] | State the intended outcome, such as starting peer discussion, demonstrating expertise, or attracting relevant inquiries. | Start conversations with content leads who care about editorial strategy. |
How to use
- Paste one idea with enough evidence to make a real point, rather than a broad topic.
- Choose the hook that best matches the reader you want, then edit it until it sounds like a sentence you would say.
- Confirm that client names, performance figures, and internal process details are approved for public use.
- Send: "Give me three comments I could leave on related posts this week that add a useful observation without repeating my post."
Variations
Case study post
Use this to turn a completed writing project into a credibility-building post.
Write a LinkedIn mini case study from this content project. [PROJECT CONTEXT] [PROBLEM] [MY PROCESS] [APPROVED RESULT] [VOICE] Produce a 220-word post with a concrete opening, brief before-and-after context, three choices I made during research or drafting, and one transferable lesson for content teams. Protect confidential information and do not imply the writing alone caused a business result. Provide two alternate openings: one process-led and one outcome-led.
Portfolio announcement
Use this when announcing a new service, niche, publication, or portfolio piece.
Draft a LinkedIn announcement for my content-writing work. [ANNOUNCEMENT] [WHO IT HELPS] [EVIDENCE OR EXAMPLE] [VOICE] [NEXT STEP] Write 150-220 words that explains the practical problem this work addresses, shows one credible detail about how I work, and gives readers a low-pressure next step. Avoid generic launch language and unsupported claims of expertise. Return a primary version plus a more direct version for people already familiar with my work.
Editorial framework
Use this to share a repeatable writing method with peers or potential clients.
Turn my editorial method into a useful LinkedIn post. [METHOD] [EXAMPLE] [TARGET READER] [VOICE] Write a 200-250 word post that explains when the method is useful, its 3-5 steps, and a realistic limitation or exception. Use one brief example from my notes, without inventing results. Open with the costly mistake the method prevents, then end with a focused question that asks readers how they handle the same decision.
Tips
- One post should teach one decision. A post about research, structure, SEO, and client management at once gives readers no memorable takeaway.
- Show the work at the level that demonstrates judgment: the brief question you changed, the source you rejected, or the revision you prevented.
- Use outcome claims carefully. A reduction in revisions can be attributed to a clearer process; a revenue claim usually has many causes and needs stronger evidence.
- Treat the first two lines as a promise of relevance, not a headline contest. Specific tension earns attention better than a broad claim about “great content.”
FAQ
How long should a LinkedIn post for a content writer be?
A focused professional post often works at 180-260 words, but the idea matters more than a target count. Keep enough context for the lesson to be credible.
Can I use AI to write in my own voice?
Yes, if you give it examples and edit the result aloud. Remove phrases, opinions, and emotional details you would not naturally use.
Should every post have a call to action?
No. A useful insight can stand alone. Add a question or next step only when it is relevant to the post’s stated goal.
