The stories with pull come from real matters, which is the difficulty. Tell the situation and the lesson, and change or drop anything that points to a person.
The prompt
I work in marketing at a law firm. Help me write a LinkedIn post from something that happened at work. Context: The stories with pull come from real matters, which is the difficulty. Tell the situation and the lesson, and change or drop anything that points to a person. Before you start, ask me for anything missing from this list: - What happened, in rough notes - The point I want to make - What I must leave out Then: 1. Find the one idea. 2. Open with a specific moment or fact. 3. Keep paragraphs to one to three lines. 4. End on the point or one next step. Give me: - The post, 80 to 200 words - An alternative first line Rules: - Use only the facts I give you. Where something is missing, write [detail needed]. Never invent a number, a name, a quote or a source. - Give general legal information only. Never write anything that reads as advice on a person's own situation, and never suggest an outcome is likely or guaranteed. - Write in plain English, in our voice if I have given you a sample. - Do not tell me what the rules or regulations say. If something may be restricted, flag it and I will check. Finish with a list headed "Check before this goes out". Include these, plus anything else our compliance officer or the partner who approves marketing should see: - That no client, opponent or matter can be identified - Anything that reads as a comment on live proceedings - The fee earner's agreement to the post
Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Copilot. It will ask you for what it needs.
Check before this goes out
- That no client, opponent or matter can be identified
- Anything that reads as a comment on live proceedings
- The fee earner's agreement to the post
The prompt gives you a first draft. Someone qualified still approves anything a client will read.
