💻 Prompt of the Week

Create a Fully-Automated Content Repurposing System

You are a senior AI and automation consultant.

I want to repurpose a weekly blog post into multiple formats for different channels automatically.

First, extract the key points and structure them into a concise summary.

Turn those key points into:

A LinkedIn post (tone: professional, insightful)

A Twitter thread (tone: punchy, short sentences)

An Instagram carousel (include slide-by-slide text + DALL·E prompts for visuals)

A YouTube Shorts script (casual tone, 60 seconds max)

A short email (friendly, informative, 2-3 paragraphs)

Format each deliverable so I can send it via automation (e.g., Google Doc or Markdown).

Provide guidance on how to automate the whole workflow using Zapier or Make, including trigger setup, file storage (Google Drive or Notion), and content delivery.
