How to use it in ChatGPT
Open a new chat in ChatGPT, paste the prompt, then paste anything the prompt asks for right below it.
The prompt uses short Markdown headings like ### Task and ### Rules. ChatGPT handles this structure well, and it stays readable if you edit it.
If you've connected your email or other apps to ChatGPT, choose "Let my AI look them up" so it can use them as the source of facts.
Example: the finished prompt
For a sample company, Northside Supply. Yours uses your answers and your company profile.

### About me and my company My name: Sam Rivera My role: Sales manager My company: Northside Supply What we do: Commercial shelving and racking, installed in 2–3 weeks Who we sell to: Warehouses and distribution centers ### Task Write a LinkedIn post about a win or milestone. Who should read it: Clinic owners, other sales leaders Here's the story: Lost a deal last year because we never met the CFO. Now we ask who signs off on the first call. Won 3 of the last 4. ### Details People or companies I can tag: Dana Lopez, Harbor Foods Don't mention: Client names, prices ### Rules - Tone: friendly and warm, but professional. - Write like a real person in sales, not a marketer or a robot. - No filler openers such as "I hope this email finds you well" or "I wanted to reach out". - No buzzwords: avoid "leverage", "synergy", "circle back", "touch base", "unlock", "streamline", "game-changer". - Short sentences. Plain words. Get to the point in the first line. - My notes may be rough or have typos. Fix spelling and grammar, but keep my meaning. - Use only facts I give you, in this prompt or in anything I paste or point you to. If something important is missing, put a [placeholder] in brackets instead of making it up. - First line has to earn the "see more" click. A plain, specific statement. No clickbait. - Short paragraphs, 1–2 sentences each. No hashtag walls (2 at most, at the end). - Sound like a person, not a brand. No "I'm thrilled to announce", "humbled" or "game-changer". - Never name a client, price or private detail unless I've said it's OK. - End with one question or one clear invitation: ask readers to comment with their view. - No emojis unless I add them. ### Output - The post, under 180 words. - 2 alternative first lines.
Why this prompt works
Most AI LinkedIn posts read like announcements. This prompt starts from your real story and writes it like you'd say it, with a first line that earns the click.
- It bans the phrases that make posts sound generated, like "thrilled to announce".
- It keeps client names and prices out unless you allow them.
- It ends with one question or ask, so people know how to respond.
Questions
- Will it sound like me?
- Paste 2–3 of your past posts under "Your writing samples" and it matches your style.
- How long should a LinkedIn post be?
- 100–180 words works for most. You can change it under More options.
- Can I post about a client win?
- Yes, but only name the client if they've agreed. The prompt leaves names out by default.
- Does it work with the free version of ChatGPT?
- Yes. The prompt is plain text and works in any ChatGPT plan. Looking things up in your email needs a plan and setup that connects those apps.
