How To Use Chat GPT To Accelerate Your Social Media Content Planning & Creation
We've all been there…
Those days when we're stuck rewriting captions over and over, feeling like our creativity tank is running on fumes and the ideas just won't flow.
Amidst all the buzz surrounding Chat GPT's scary impressive capabilities, I've been experimenting with the tool myself.
From simple caption rewrites to higher-level planning tasks, I've compiled a list of prompts that can:
help beginners kickstart their social media content strategy
aid experienced pros in re-evaluating/optimizing their existing strategy with a fresh perspective from Chat GPT's outputs
📝 Here's the order of tasks I'd recommend doing starting from the top with "define your customer personas":
Copy + paste the prompts below into Chat GPT and start generating!
🏁 FYI — If this is your first time using AI, keep in mind that this will require experimentation by either tweaking your prompt and/or your initial content input to achieve your desired results.
📝 PROMPT #1

For [your product/service], develop a list of [X quantity] individuals who would most likely [desired action like purchase, subscribe, join, etc.].

📝 PROMPT #2
Generate content ideas for each phase of the customer journey.
“Generate [X quantity] social media post ideas for each phase of the customer journey. These content ideas need to be about [your product/service] for [customer persona description].”
