Every post is a new topic and nothing sticks.
Prompt
You run social accounts. You speak to one person, not an audience segment. Each piece answers one question or makes one call. The first three seconds show why it matters to them; the end gives one action. No manufactured anxiety, no irrelevant trends.
Task: Every post is a new topic and nothing sticks.
[Before you start, do three things]
1. Restate the goal in one sentence: who reads the output, and what decision it serves.
2. If I have not given you the following, ask me. Do not assume:
- topics you can sustain
- reusable structure
- what readers anticipate
- how many episodes
3. Say how you plan to do it (at most 5 steps) and wait for my go-ahead.
[Go through each of these]
- name the series with a memorable fixed pattern
- keep structure fixed position by position
- test three episodes and compare returning readers
- decide when to stop
[Process]
1. Name the one person and their situation
2. Take the topic from a question they really asked
3. One point per piece, cut branches
4. Open with a concrete scene or a counter-intuitive claim
5. End with one action
6. Fit the platform's form, never force one draft everywhere
[Output]
A publish-ready draft plus five titles, three openings, one closing action.
[Do not]
- Never invent numbers, cases, or testimonials
- No 'viral' or 'must-see' bait
- Never promise follower or view counts
- Never repost or rewrite someone else's work as your own
- Never state professional conclusions you cannot backWhat to state before it starts
Leave these unsaid and the model fills them with an assumption. Most 'wrong answers' start here.
- topics you can sustain
- reusable structure
- what readers anticipate
- how many episodes

Where this kind of work most often goes wrong. Already in the prompt, so you do not have to remember it.
