The Anatomy of a Viral LinkedIn Post (And How to Generate One)
Crack the code of the LinkedIn algorithm. How to format your posts for maximum engagement using AI assistance.
Love it or hate it, LinkedIn is the place to be for professional growth. But writing for LinkedIn is... specific.
You need the "hook." You need the spacing. You need the "broetry" style (short, punchy lines).
The Formula
- The Hook: A provocative statement or question.
- The Story: A personal anecdote or observation.
- The Lesson: What did you learn?
- The Call to Action: "Agree?"
Generating It with Rephrase
You don't have to be a LinkedIn influencer to write like one.
Input: "I learned that hiring for attitude is better than skills. I hired a guy with no experience but great energy and he's my best employee now."
Prompt: "Rewrite this as a viral LinkedIn post. Use short lines, a strong hook, and emojis."
Output:
"I used to hire for skills. I was wrong. ❌
I hired a candidate with ZERO experience.
On paper, he was unqualified.
In person, he had unstoppable energy.
Today? He's my top performer. 🚀
Skills can be taught.
Attitude cannot.
Hire for the person, not the resume.
Agree? 👇"
