Step 1: Collect 3–5 posts that feel like “you”
- Go back through your Facebook, emails, or messages.
- Pick 3–5 things you've written that:
- Got good engagement, OR
- Felt very “you”, OR
- Got comments like “This is exactly how I feel”
Copy these into a Google Doc or a note.
That is your raw material.
Step 2: Give those posts to ChatGPT and ask it to study you
Here is an easy beginner-friendly prompt they can copy:
PROMPT 1: Style Analysis
“I am going to paste 3–5 of my own posts below.
Please read them carefully and then describe my writing style.
Tell me:
- What my tone is like (friendly, serious, funny, etc)
- How long my sentences usually are
- Any phrases or words I use a lot
- How I usually start and finish my posts
- Anything you notice I avoid doing
Here are my posts:[PASTE YOUR POSTS HERE]”
ChatGPT will give them a description like:
- “Your tone is warm and encouraging…”
- “You often use short sentences…”
- “You avoid complicated jargon…”
KEEP THIS AS YOUR VOICE Document
Step 3: Use your Voice Document every time you write with AI
Now, whenever they want to write something with ChatGPT, they start with:
PROMPT 2: Write In My Voice
“This is a description of my writing style. Please read it and use it for everything you write for me today:
[PASTE VOICE DOCUMENT HERE]
Now, using that style, please write a [Facebook post / Instagram caption / email] about:[TOPIC]
Make sure it sounds natural, like I am talking to a friend, not like a robot or a sales script.”
Step 4: The 3-Question “Human Check” Before You Post
Before you hit publish, ask:
- Would I say this out loud to a friend?
- Is there at least one real detail only I could add?
- If my name wasn’t on this, could someone who knows me still guess it’s mine?
If they cannot pass those 3 questions, they are not done editing.
