AI Prompts for AI Prompts for Social Media

Write a one-page social media strategy for [BRAND / CREATOR / BUSINESS]. Include: (1) primary goal (awareness / engagement / leads / sales); (2) target audience in one specific sentence; (3) platforms to prioritize and why; (4) content pillars (3-4 themes that every post fits into); (5) posting frequency per platform; (6) how success will be measured. Make it specific enough to use as a brief not a generic template.

Help me define 3-4 content pillars for my social media presence. My brand or business: [DESCRIBE]. My audience: [DESCRIBE]. My goal: [AWARENESS / ENGAGEMENT / LEADS / SALES]. For each pillar: give it a name, describe what type of content lives there, explain why it serves the audience, and give 3 example post ideas. Pillars should be distinct enough that any post clearly belongs to one, but related enough to create a coherent identity.

Audit my current social media presence based on this information: [PASTE RECENT POST TOPICS / PERFORMANCE DATA / PLATFORM LIST]. Identify: (1) what is working and should be continued; (2) what is being posted that is generating no response; (3) what is missing that the audience likely wants; (4) whether the overall presence communicates a clear, consistent identity. Give me 3 specific changes to make in the next 30 days.

Build a 30-day social media content calendar for [BRAND / NICHE]. Platforms: [LIST]. Posting frequency: [SPECIFY]. Use these content pillars: [LIST PILLARS OR DESCRIBE THEMES]. For each post slot: give the platform, content type, hook or topic, and format (image / video / carousel / text). Vary the formats and topics so the calendar does not feel repetitive. Flag 2-3 posts that have the best potential to go beyond my existing audience.

Define the brand voice I should use on social media. My brand: [DESCRIBE]. My audience: [DESCRIBE]. What I want people to feel when they read my posts: [DESCRIBE]. Give me: 3 adjectives that define the voice, 3 adjectives that define what the voice is NOT, a sample sentence rewritten in this voice from a generic version, and a list of words or phrases to avoid. Make it specific enough that someone else could write in this voice using this guide.

Write an Instagram caption for this post: [DESCRIBE THE IMAGE OR VIDEO AND WHAT IT SHOWS]. The caption should: open with a hook that stops the scroll (no "We are excited to announce"), tell the story or make the point in 3-5 short paragraphs, end with a question or call to action, and include 5-10 relevant hashtags in a style that fits the account. Tone: [DESCRIBE]. Audience: [DESCRIBE].

Write a Twitter/X thread on [TOPIC]. Audience: [DESCRIBE]. The thread should: open with a hook tweet that makes a bold or counterintuitive claim, deliver on that claim across 8-12 tweets, each one adding a specific insight rather than padding, and close with a summary and a call to action. Each tweet should stand alone and also work as part of the sequence. Keep every tweet under 280 characters.

Write a script for a 60-second TikTok or Instagram Reels video on [TOPIC]. Format: [TALKING HEAD / VOICEOVER / TEXT ON SCREEN / COMBINATION]. The script should: hook in the first 3 seconds with a question, statement, or visual; deliver the core content in 45-50 seconds using short, punchy sentences; and close with a specific call to action. Include notes on B-roll or visual cuts if relevant. Avoid slow intros or lengthy outros.

I have this piece of content: [PASTE ORIGINAL POST OR IDEA]. Adapt it for four platforms, respecting each platform format: (1) Instagram caption with hook, story, hashtags; (2) Twitter/X thread (3-5 tweets); (3) LinkedIn post with professional angle; (4) Facebook post with a conversational community tone. Each version should feel native to the platform, not like a copy-paste.

Write a YouTube community post or short newsletter teaser promoting [VIDEO / PIECE OF CONTENT]. Keep it under 200 words. It should: create curiosity about what the content covers without giving away the punchline, tell the reader specifically why this particular piece is worth their time, and end with a single clear link or call to action. Tone: [DESCRIBE].

Create a carousel post structure for [TOPIC / PLATFORM: INSTAGRAM OR LINKEDIN]. The carousel should: have a cover slide with a hook that makes someone want to swipe, 5-7 content slides each with a short headline and 2-3 bullet points or sentences, and a final slide with a clear call to action. Give me the text for each slide. Keep headlines under 8 words and body text under 30 words per slide.

Write a design brief for a social media graphic for [PLATFORM]. The graphic is for [POST TOPIC OR CAMPAIGN]. Brief includes: dimensions ([SPECIFY OR USE PLATFORM DEFAULT]), headline text (under 10 words), subtext if needed, brand colors and fonts if specified [DESCRIBE OR SKIP], mood or visual style reference, and whether the graphic will be used as a standalone or combined with a caption. Also note: do not include copyrighted images or unlicensed fonts.

Write a concept brief for a short-form video on [TOPIC] for [PLATFORM]. Include: the hook (what happens in the first 3 seconds), the core content structure (what is shown or said in each section), the visual style (talking head / b-roll / text on screen / animation), the tone and pacing, and the call to action at the end. Write it so a video editor or creator could execute it without a follow-up conversation.

Generate 3 meme concepts for [BRAND / NICHE] that would resonate with [TARGET AUDIENCE]. For each concept: name the meme format (e.g., "distracted boyfriend," "this is fine," custom format), describe the specific image or visual, write the text overlay, and explain why it is funny or relatable to this audience. Avoid memes that punch down, use copyrighted characters in risky ways, or feel forced. The humor should come from real audience insights.

Plan a branded content series for [BRAND] that runs for 8 weeks. The series should have: a name and a one-sentence description of the concept, consistent visual treatment (describe the format and aesthetic), a recurring structure so the audience knows what to expect each week, a way to build toward something (a launch, a theme, a final installment), and a hashtag or call to action that grows with each post. Show the 8-week schedule with topics.

Analyze this social media performance data and tell me what it means: [PASTE DATA: POST TOPICS, FORMATS, IMPRESSIONS, ENGAGEMENT RATES, FOLLOWER GROWTH]. Identify: which post types are performing best, whether there are any patterns in timing or topic, what is getting engagement but not reach (or reach but not engagement), and 3 specific recommendations for the next 30 days based on this data.

I want to A/B test hooks on [PLATFORM] for this post: [DESCRIBE THE CONTENT]. Write 5 different opening lines that test different approaches: a question, a bold statement, a surprising statistic, a personal story opener, and a contrarian take. I will post the same content with different hooks on different days and compare engagement. Tell me which variable each hook is testing so I can isolate what drives response.

This post underperformed: [PASTE THE POST AND ITS STATS]. Platform: [SPECIFY]. Diagnose what most likely went wrong: was it the hook, the format, the topic, the call to action, the timing, or the hashtags? Give me a specific hypothesis for each potential issue and tell me how to test it with the next post.

Plan a content experiment for [PLATFORM] to test [HYPOTHESIS: E.G., VIDEO OUTPERFORMS IMAGES, EDUCATIONAL CONTENT GETS MORE SAVES THAN OPINION CONTENT, LONGER CAPTIONS DRIVE MORE COMMENTS]. Design: the control (what I currently post), the test variation, how long to run the experiment, what metric to measure, what sample size I need to trust the result, and what I will do differently if the hypothesis proves true.

Build a monthly social media review process I can run in 30 minutes. Give me: the specific metrics to pull for each platform I use (reach, engagement rate, follower growth, profile visits, link clicks), the 5 questions to ask when reviewing the data, how to identify what to do more of and what to cut, and a simple template I can fill in each month to track progress toward my goal: [DESCRIBE GOAL].
