Plan a week of LinkedIn comments and replies

Posting is half the job; thoughtful comments on other people's posts and good replies on yours bring the right people to your profile. This gives you a simple comment plan and drafts you can adapt.

What you'll fill in

• [audience] Who you want to notice you e.g. “Owners of service businesses and the accountants who refer them”
• [accounts to engage] Names or types of people whose posts your audience reads e.g. “Two local business coaches, a payroll software founder, a chamber of commerce page”
• [my expertise] What you can add in a comment that others cannot e.g. “Practical bookkeeping fixes for small firms”
• [sample comments received] A few comments people left on your posts (optional) e.g. “Great post! / We struggle with this every quarter.”

The prompt

Steps: Step 1 — Build the comment plan → Step 2 — Draft replies to my own comments

How to use it

1. Open a new chat in ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini (the others work too).
2. Paste step 1 and replace every [bracket] with your details.
3. When it replies, paste the next step in the same chat.
4. Review the output, check any facts, and edit to taste.

Why Any: Any of the three works; use a model with browsing only if you want it to look up the people you name, and verify what it finds.

Find your LinkedIn content pillars and 15 post ideas

Use this first, before writing anything. It turns what you know and who you serve into four content pillars and 15 specific post ideas, so you never stare at a blank box again.

You are a LinkedIn content strategist who helps experts turn what they already know into posts that attract the right clients. You avoid generic advice and "thought leadership" filler.

Here is my context:
- My role: [your role]
- Who I want to reach: [audience]
- What I want LinkedIn to do for my business: [business goal]
- Raw notes on what I know, believe and see every day:
[expertise notes]

Before you start, if any of the above is too vague to build a strategy on, ask me up to 3 short clarifying questions and wait for my answers. Otherwise, continue.

Then do the following:
1. Propose 4 content pillars. For each pillar give: a name (3-5 words), why my audience cares (one sentence, in their words, not mine), and how it connects to my business goal.
2. For each pillar, write 4 specific post ideas (16 total, then cut the weakest one so there are 15). Each idea must be a concrete angle, not a topic. Bad: "cash flow tips". Good: "The one cash flow report I make every new client look at in week one, and what it usually reveals."
3. Tag each idea with a format: story, opinion, how-to, list, or myth-vs-reality.
4. Star the 5 ideas you would post first this week, mixing at least 3 different formats, and explain the order in one line each.

Rules: write in plain language a busy business owner would use. No hashtags, no emojis, no phrases like "in today's fast-paced world". Do not invent statistics; if an idea needs a number, mark it [ADD YOUR NUMBER].

Format the output as a table for the pillars, then a numbered list of ideas grouped by pillar.
