Act as a senior social media strategist. I have the following long-form content:
{{long_form_content_summary}}

Create a repurposing plan for {{target_platforms}}. For each platform, provide:

1. Format — the specific content type best suited for this platform (e.g. carousel, thread, short-form video script, single image post) and why.
2. Hook — a specific opening line or visual concept designed for that platform's scroll behavior and algorithm.
3. Core content — the actual repurposed content adapted to that platform's format and tone, not just a shortened version of the original.
4. Native call-to-action — a platform-appropriate CTA (what works on LinkedIn does not work on TikTok).
5. Posting cadence — recommend how many pieces of content this single source could realistically be split into for this platform without feeling repetitive.

Avoid simply cross-posting the same text everywhere; each platform's output should read as if it were written natively for that platform.

How to use

  1. Summarize your long-form content (or paste the full piece) into {{long_form_content_summary}}.
  2. List your target platforms in {{target_platforms}}, e.g. 'LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok'.
  3. Use the format and hook recommendations as your creative brief, but adapt the specific wording to match your authentic voice.
  4. Follow the suggested posting cadence rather than dumping all repurposed content on the same day, to extend the content's total reach over time.

Example input

Act as a senior social media strategist... Long-form content: A 2000-word blog post on '5 mistakes founders make when hiring their first salesperson'. Target platforms: LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram.

Example output

LinkedIn — Format: multi-slide carousel, since LinkedIn's algorithm favors saves and dwell time on visual, swipeable content. Hook: 'I watched a founder burn $180K on their first sales hire. Here's what went wrong.' Core content: 5 slides, one mistake per slide, each with a specific, concrete example rather than abstract advice. CTA: 'Comment MISTAKE and I'll send you the full breakdown.' Cadence: this can support 1 carousel now and a separate single-mistake deep-dive post 2 weeks later.

Twitter/X — Format: a numbered thread, since threads perform well for tactical, listicle-style business advice. Hook: 'Founders waste more money on their first sales hire than almost any other early decision. 5 mistakes to avoid:' Core content: each mistake as a short, punchy tweet with one concrete example, ending with a summary tweet. CTA: 'Follow for more early-stage hiring breakdowns.' Cadence: 1 thread now, plus 2-3 standalone tweets later quoting specific mistakes as isolated tips.

Instagram — Format: single-image quote graphic plus caption, since static graphics with strong captions still outperform poorly-produced short video for this type of advice content. Hook (caption opening): 'Your first sales hire will make or break your first year of revenue.' Core content: caption expands on the single most surprising mistake from the post, not all 5, to keep focus. CTA: 'Save this for when you're ready to hire.' Cadence: 1 post per top mistake, spaced a week apart, for 5 total pieces of content.

Customization tips

  • If you have platform-specific performance data (e.g. 'our carousels always outperform single images'), mention it so the format recommendation reflects your actual audience behavior.
  • Ask for video script versions specifically if you want a shot-by-shot breakdown for Reels, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts.
  • Request A/B hook variations (2-3 options per platform) if you want to test which resonates best with your specific audience.

FAQ

What is this prompt for?
It turns a single piece of long-form content into a full, platform-native distribution plan, with format, hooks, and CTAs tailored specifically to each platform rather than generic cross-posting.
Can I use this for content I haven't written yet?
It works best with existing content (even a detailed outline), since the repurposing plan draws directly from your actual points and examples rather than inventing new content from scratch.
What's a limitation of this prompt?
The model's knowledge of platform algorithm behavior reflects general patterns and may not capture the most recent algorithm changes, so validate format choices against your own recent platform performance data where available.
How is this different from just asking to 'shorten this for social media'?
A simple shortening request tends to produce nearly identical text repurposed across platforms. This prompt explicitly designs different formats, hooks, and CTAs suited to each platform's distinct norms and algorithm behavior.
