1. Start with live research, not a blank prompt
Generic AI posts read generic because the model has nothing new to react to. Before drafting, pull today's Google results for two or three queries tied to your role and industry — organic titles, People Also Ask, and related searches. That single step gives the model a real angle and stops it from recycling last year's takes.
2. Draft two posts, not one
Split the day into a brand post (authoritative, 250–300 words, no emojis) and a personal post (lowercase, 150–250 words, one small opinion). The same research feeds both prompts, but the tones don't compete for the same feed slot.
3. Pick the hook from People Also Ask
The strongest first line is usually a question your audience is already Googling. Let the model pick one PAA entry as the hook — it's a free way to make the post feel of-the-moment without manually skimming search results.
4. Attach a photo the model didn't generate
Rotate through a small library of your own headshots, action shots, or product photos. LinkedIn's algorithm penalises stock imagery, and a photo you took is the fastest signal that a human is behind the account.
5. Schedule, don't post
Pick one posting time per day and let a scheduler publish for you. Consistency at the same hour matters more than posting at the "optimal" time — the feed rewards a rhythm.
