linkedin-content-planner

Business

Generate a 7-day LinkedIn content plan from a theme, audience, and pillars. Produces per-day post pillar, format, hook type, CTA, posting time, daily comment targets, and a weekly inbound-readiness check. Use when the user wants to plan a week or month of content, not draft a single post.

LinkedIn Content Planner

Produce a 7-day LinkedIn plan built around the 3-pillar discipline (Authority 40-50%, Personal Narrative 30-40%, Community 20-30%). Optionally adds a Product/Offer pillar at 10-15%.

When to use

User asks "plan my week" or "what should I post this week"
User wants to escape ad-hoc shipping and establish rhythm
Before a launch week (user needs product-pillar alignment)

Input

Theme (optional): e.g., "AI agents shipping in production", "first 6 months of Co.Actor"
Audience description: e.g., "B2B founders, AI ops leaders, marketing VPs"
Pillar mix (optional): defaults to 40% Authority / 30% Narrative / 20% Community / 10% Product
Posting days (optional): defaults to Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri (4 posts)
Voice samples (optional): paths to past posts for voice calibration

Output

A markdown plan with:

7-day calendar

Day	Time	Pillar	Format	Hook formula	1-line angle	CTA type	Goal
Mon	—	(commenting day)	—	—	—	—	—
Tue	8:00 AM local	Authority	Text	F7 Odd-Precision Money	"What 3 months of agent ops costs"	Question close	Saves
Wed	9:30 AM local	Narrative	Text	F4 Time-Anchor Confession	"Why I stopped publishing for 4 weeks"	Mirror question	Comments
Thu	8:00 AM local	Community	Text	F14 Named Gratitude	"The 3 people who shaped our launch"	Tag + thanks	Reposts
Fri	9:00 AM local	Narrative	Text	F11 Emotional Cold-Open	"The night our first deploy failed"	Soft close	Likes
Sat/Sun	—	(off)	—	—	—	—	—

The Goal column spans saves / comments / reposts / likes across the four posts, satisfying the Goal mix check below.

Daily comment targets

For each posting day:

3-5 creators to engage (names or archetypes: "peer founders at 5-20k", "VCs with AI thesis", "BigCo CTOs")
Comment pattern to apply (first-commenter, data-first, answer-their-question)
Target count: 10-20 substantive comments per day

Weekly inbound-readiness check

At least 1 vulnerability post (Narrative)
At least 1 receipt/data post (Authority)
At least 1 soft offer or CTA-driving post
Comment strategy includes 70% peers, 20% aspirational, 10% prospects
No pillar >60% of the week's posts
No duplicate formula used twice in the same week
Goal mix spread: not every post chases the same reaction (see Goal mix below)

Rules

3 pillars minimum, 5 maximum. More than 5 dilutes signal.
3-5 posts per week. 6+/week triggers cannibalization signal in 360Brew.
10-20 comments/day on other creators. Comments drive more inbound than posts.
Tue/Wed/Thu top for B2B. Avoid Fri after 2 PM, Sat/Sun (B2B 30-50% reach cut).
One format per pillar per week. Don't stack 3 text posts for Authority — vary.
Product/Offer pillar max 1 post/week. Overuse kills trust.

Formula → pillar mapping

Pillar	Preferred formulas
Authority	F7 Odd-Precision Money, F10 Contrarian Historical, F8 Paid-vs-Free, F5 Self-Proving Meta, F15 Explain-to-Kids
Narrative	F4 Time-Anchor Confession, F3 Year-over-Year Pivot, F9 Curiosity-Gap, F11 Emotional Cold-Open, F16 Status-Strip
Community	F6 Comment-Gate (use sparingly), F12 Permission Slip, F14 Named Gratitude, poll posts, spotlight mentions
Product/Offer	F2 R.I.P. Obituary (when pivoting category), F1 Anaphora (when framing product as fix), F13 Bait-and-Switch (upgrade announcements)

Goal mix (balance the week, not just the pillars)

Every formula earns a primary reaction: comments, reposts, likes, or saves (see ../../references/hook-formulas.md "Engagement-goal split"). A week that is all comment-bait or all repost-bait reads as engineered and flattens reach. Spread the goals across the week:

Goal	Formulas	Weekly target
Comments	F4, F10, F12, F9	at least 1
Reposts	F14, F2, F8	at least 1
Likes	F11, F13, F16	at least 1
Saves	F15, F7, F8	at least 1

Steps

Gather inputs. Ask user for theme, audience, pillar preferences if not provided.
Validate pillar mix sums to 100%; warn if any pillar >60%.
For each posting day, pick:
- Pillar (rotate to match mix)
- Formula from that pillar's bank (don't repeat within 7 days)
- Format (alternating text / carousel / poll per pillar rules)
- Specific angle (user provides or skill generates)
- Posting time (audience-timezone aware)
For each posting day, add 3-5 comment targets with suggested pattern.
Run inbound-readiness check; flag anything missing.
Return as markdown + optional JSON for Notion/Airtable import.
