You ask AI for something… And it gives you: “Here are 5 tips to improve your productivity…” 😐 Technically correct. Completely useless. The difference isn’t the tool. It’s the input. Most people: → ask vague → get generic Small change: Add context + intent. Example: ❌ “Write a post about productivity” ✅ “Write a relatable LinkedIn post about struggling with productivity as a solo business owner” Same tool. Very different result. What’s the most generic thing AI has given you?

Steal this 👇 If your posts aren’t getting attention, it’s usually the hook. Try this: --- AI Hook Generator Prompt: “You are a high-level content strategist. Generate 15 scroll-stopping hooks for the topic below. Topic: [insert topic] Make each hook different using these styles: • curiosity-based • contrarian • relatable • problem-focused • bold statement • question Rules: • short and punchy • no generic phrases • no emojis • written like a real person • avoid sounding like AI Each hook should make someone want to read the next line. After generating, pick the 3 strongest hooks and explain why they work.” --- Test it on your next post. Which style do you usually use for hooks?

If your AI content feels generic… it’s usually because the prompt is too basic. Try this instead. --- AI Content Upgrade Prompt: “You are an expert content strategist. Take the idea below and turn it into a high-quality post that sounds natural and human. Topic: [insert your topic] Before writing, ask: • Who is this for? • What do they actually care about? • What would make them stop scrolling? Then write the post with: • a strong hook (first line must create curiosity or relatability) • clear, simple language (no fluff or corporate tone) • short paragraphs (easy to read) • a natural flow (no robotic structure) • one clear idea (don’t try to say everything) • a question or thought at the end to encourage engagement Tone: • conversational • slightly opinionated if relevant • sounds like a real person, not AI Avoid: • clichés • overused phrases • sounding like a template After writing, improve it by: • removing anything generic • making it more specific • making it feel more like a real person wrote it” --- Save it and test it on your next post.
