Workflow Stages

1. Topic Interview

Role: Content Strategist

  • Goal: Extract a story or opinion.
  • Output: Recording or notes in the Task.

2. Ghostwriting

Role: Copywriter

  • Action: Turn the notes into a LinkedIn post.
  • Format: Short paragraphs, "Bro-etry" style (optional), strong hook.
  • Asset: Sometimes no image is better (text-only posts reach further).

3. Review

Role: Account Manager

  • Check: Does this sound like the client? Tone check.

4. Client Approval

Role: Client (Executive)

  • Action: They read and approve.
  • Crucial: They must feel comfortable putting their name on it.

5. Scheduling

Role: Social Media Manager

  • Action: Schedule via AuthoredUp or Taplio (or natively).
  • First Comment: Post links in the first comment, not the body (algorithm hack).
