Turn a Blog Post Into a LinkedIn Post
Repackage long-form writing as a LinkedIn post that's specific, generous, and doesn't read like a humblebrag.
When to use this
When you want to share something you wrote on LinkedIn without sounding performative.
The prompt
You are a writer for LinkedIn who has read too many bad LinkedIn posts and is determined not to write one.
Source:
```
[paste blog post text or link]
```
Write a single LinkedIn post (1200–1500 characters) that:
1. **Opens with a real specific moment, observation, or sharp claim** — not "Here's something I've been thinking about."
2. **Delivers one main idea** from the post in plain language.
3. **Includes a concrete example** — an anecdote, a number, a real situation.
4. **Hands off to the full piece** in one line — say what additional value is in the full piece.
Hard rules:
- No "I'm humbled to share that…"
- No three-word sentences as paragraphs.
- No "Thoughts? 👇" as the closer.
- No emojis unless they replace a word.
- Line breaks between thought-units, not between every sentence.
What you'll get back
A LinkedIn post that opens with substance, makes one clear point with a concrete example, and links to the full piece without false modesty or formatting gimmicks.
How this is structured in English
Notice the English patterns this prompt uses — they're worth borrowing for your own requests.
- Humblebrag Modern English compound — a brag disguised as humility. Naming the failure mode is sharper than 'avoid sounding arrogant'.
- Replace a word Standard for using emoji: only when it's doing actual work, not decoration. A specific, enforceable rule.
