“Act as an expert content strategist. Create a 30-day content calendar for [platform(s)] using the following themes: [list 3–5 content themes].

This system is for business owners use to grow faster, stay consistent, and finally keep up without doing it all manually.
Serious entrepreneurs aren’t winging their content anymore – they’re using this workflow.
ChatGPT Prompt for Storytelling Content
Stories build trust fast, but writing them from scratch every time is exhausting. This prompt turns your everyday moments into scroll-stopping posts that connect and convert.
“Act as a storytelling expert. Turn this personal story or moment: [brief description of what happened] into a [platform] post that includes a clear takeaway: [what lesson, shift, or realization you want the reader to get]. Write it in my brand voice: [describe your tone & style], and make it resonate with [target audience]. Keep it within [word count or character limit].”
Scroll-Stopping Hook Prompt
If no one reads the first line, the rest doesn’t matter. This prompt helps you write bold hooks that stop the scroll and get people to read.
“Act as a viral marketing expert. Write [number] scroll-stopping hooks for a [platform] post about [topic]. Each hook should grab [target audience]’s attention by using [type of hook: curiosity, bold statement, emotion, etc.] and aim to trigger this reaction: [desired emotion or response, e.g. surprise, urgency, empathy]. Keep each hook under [character limit] if needed.”
Content Repurposing Prompt
Turn your blog post, email, or testimonial into 3-5 new social posts. This prompt squeezes every drop of value out of the content you already have.
“Act as a content repurposing expert. Turn this [blog post, email, or testimonial]: [paste content] into [number] social posts for [platform(s)]. Each post should speak to [target audience], follow this purpose or content type: [e.g. tip, story, promo, engagement], and match my brand voice: [describe your tone & style].”

Promo and Sales Prompt
You’re not here to sound like a pushy marketer. This prompt helps you write sales content that feels natural and human, but still sells.
“Act as a copywriter who specializes in conversational sales content. Write a [platform] post promoting my [product/service/offer]: [brief description of what it helps with]. The post should speak to [target audience], feel helpful and natural (not overly salesy), and match my brand voice: [describe your tone & style].”
Social Media Marketing Prompt
Need tips, mini tutorials, or value-packed posts fast? This prompt turns your niche knowledge into educational content that builds authority.
“Act as a social media content creator. Write a [platform] post that teaches [topic or concept] to [target audience]. Format it as a [tip list, how-to, mini tutorial, etc.], and make it easy to understand and apply. Match my brand voice: [describe your tone & style]. Avoid generic advice – the post should position me as a trusted authority by offering deeper insight or actionable value most people overlook.”

Prompt for Creating Thought-Provoking Questions
Want more comments from people who actually care? Use this AI prompt to generate smart, opinion-sparking questions that attract your ideal audience.
“Act as a social media engagement strategist. Write [number] thought-provoking questions for a [platform] post about [topic]. Each question should spark meaningful conversation, invite opinions, or challenge assumptions – not just yes/no replies. Make sure the questions resonate with [target audience] and reflect my tone: [describe your tone & style].”
How To Get Better Results From These Prompts
Even the best prompts won’t save you if you’re using them the wrong way. Here’s how to actually get content that saves time, sounds like you, and gets results.
Don’t be vague
ChatGPT needs clear direction. Always include the platform, tone, format, and the goal of the content. The more context you give, the better the output.
Paste your own examples
Show it how you talk. Copy one of your favorite posts and say, “Match this tone.” ChatGPT learns fast when you lead with real content.
Ask for 3 variations
The first draft isn’t always the strongest. Ask for multiple options with different angles, so you can choose the best one or mix and match.
Fix the boring stuff
If it feels robotic or generic, say so. Tell ChatGPT what’s missing: “Make it more bold,” “Add personality,” or “Write like I’m texting a friend.” Train it like a junior copywriter.
Humanize the content
This is what makes or breaks your content. AI is great, but if your posts still feel like AI, people won’t trust them…or you.

Keep your voice in control
Never post straight from the AI. Tweak the wording, add your personal quirks, and make sure it still sounds like you.
