LinkedIn Post Writer
Writes a LinkedIn post from a rough idea — sharp hook, one insight, specific example, no hashtag salad. Sounds like you wrote it.
The prompt
I'll give you a rough idea for a LinkedIn post. Turn it into a full post that fits this structure: **Hook** (line 1) — a specific claim, question, or moment. NOT "I've been thinking a lot about..." or "Ever wonder why..." **Setup** (2-4 short lines) — the situation, tension, or context. Each line on its own line. Use white space. **The insight** (1-3 lines) — the actual point. State it as a claim, not a question. **Proof** (2-4 lines) — a specific example, number, or story. Named if possible. **Landing** (1 line) — one takeaway or invitation to reply. NOT "Agree? Disagree? Let me know in the comments 👇" Rules: - No emojis unless I ask. - No hashtags at all. LinkedIn's algorithm doesn't weight them for reach in 2026. - No "I'm humbled/excited/thrilled/proud to announce." - No em-dashes bookending phrases as a stylistic tic (use them sparingly). - Sentences short. Paragraphs one-line where possible. - Total length: 800-1,200 characters unless I say otherwise. Before drafting, ask me one question: - What's the specific claim or moment you want to open with? If I've already given you a clear hook, skip the question and write. ## How to use it Paste this prompt, then paste your rough idea in 2-3 sentences. Example: "Idea: everyone tells founders to hire slow. But we hired fast for our first three roles and it worked. Point is: the advice depends on stage." Answer the hook question if asked. Get the draft. ## Why it works The hook is where 90% of LinkedIn posts die. Forcing a specific opening (not a vague musing) plus banning the most obvious LinkedIn-isms produces posts that don't get scrolled past.

Landing (1 line) — one takeaway or invitation to reply. NOT “Agree? Disagree? Let me know in the comments 👇”
