  1. 0:00Going viral on LinkedIn is easy when you
  2. 0:02know [music] how. I run the LinkedIn
  3. 0:04profiles of lots of LinkedIn influencers
  4. 0:06on the platform and I use AI to help
  5. 0:08them go viral every [music] single week.
  6. 0:10Now, I realize that every video I've
  7. 0:12done on this channel that's around using
  8. 0:13AI to grow on LinkedIn [music]
  9. 0:15has been centered around Claude, but
  10. 0:17I've received lots of comments from you
  11. 0:18guys that actually you're using ChatGPT
  12. 0:21instead of Claude. So, for those people
  13. 0:23who are using ChatGPT instead of Claude,
  14. 0:25I want to show you how you can go viral
  15. 0:27on LinkedIn [music] using ChatGPT
  16. 0:29because it is just as easy. You just
  17. 0:31need to use a different set of rules as
  18. 0:33[music] the ones you'd use with Claude.
  19. 0:34In this video, I'm going to give you
  20. 0:36five simple steps. Follow these steps
  21. 0:38and your [music] ChatGPT will be your
  22. 0:39very best LinkedIn ghostwriter and
  23. 0:41you'll be going viral in no time. Let's
  24. 0:44get into it.
  25. 0:48First of all, let's be honest about the
  26. 0:50tool, ChatGPT, and I guess AI in general
  27. 0:53because where a lot of people go wrong
  28. 0:54is they just go into their ChatGPT and
  29. 0:56they get it to write a LinkedIn post
  30. 0:58from scratch. This is why everyone hates
  31. 1:01AI for social posting and this is why so
  32. 1:03many posts on the timeline I see are so
  33. 1:06bad, so clearly AI generated, and why
  34. 1:08lots of people think AI shouldn't be
  35. 1:10used to generate LinkedIn posts full
  36. 1:12stop. The answer is it should be used,
  37. 1:14it can be used effectively, it's just
  38. 1:16used in the wrong way 99% of the time.
  39. 1:18If you can use AI well, use it in the
  40. 1:20right places, and avoid using it in the
  41. 1:22wrong places, you'll have a competitive
  42. 1:23edge on everyone who's using it
  43. 1:25incorrectly. Where is ChatGPT a really
  44. 1:27valuable tool here? Well, it's very good
  45. 1:30in its ideas, research, hooks,
  46. 1:33structuring a post, and speed. Let me
  47. 1:35explain what I mean. ChatGPT has written
  48. 1:37more viral LinkedIn posts than any human
  49. 1:39alive, yes, including me. So, it
  50. 1:42actually knows what a good effective
  51. 1:44hook looks like, what a good effective
  52. 1:46end to a post looks like, and everything
  53. 1:48in between. As well as knowing what an
  54. 1:50effective LinkedIn post looks like, it
  55. 1:52has the whole of the internet to scan
  56. 1:55actually in 10 topics. What's hot today?
  57. 1:57What's hot this week, what are people
  58. 1:59talking about, and that's a great
  59. 2:01foundation to use as the subject matter
  60. 2:03of your LinkedIn post. So, using ChatGPT
  61. 2:05in your arsenal is very good for the
  62. 2:07research phase, it's very good in
  63. 2:09equipping you to help with the writing
  64. 2:11of the LinkedIn posts, and it's also
  65. 2:13very good for doing all of that at scale
  66. 2:15because of course it can work at very
  67. 2:17high speed and a very high volume of
  68. 2:19output. But, there are two
  69. 2:21considerations you need to have when
  70. 2:22using ChatGPT, and these are
  71. 2:24limitations, but there are ways around
  72. 2:27them. Now, the first is your voice, a
  73. 2:29human voice, but also your personal tone
  74. 2:31that you use. Naturally, ChatGPT, out of
  75. 2:34the box, speaks like ChatGPT. We all
  76. 2:36know that robotic tone of voice that
  77. 2:38ChatGPT likes to adopt. Phrases like,
  78. 2:40"Let that sink in." Excessive uses of
  79. 2:42the rocket emoji, and phrases like, "I'm
  80. 2:45humbled to announce that." It doesn't
  81. 2:47really sound like a real person. The
  82. 2:48second thing that's very important that
  83. 2:50ChatGPT doesn't have out of the box is
  84. 2:52context. Context to you, context to your
  85. 2:55business, context to your target market,
  86. 2:57content to who basically is going to be
  87. 2:59seeing your posts. So, it's hard out of
  88. 3:02the box for ChatGPT to know what's
  89. 3:04content to put in the LinkedIn post if
  90. 3:06it doesn't exactly know who it's writing
  91. 3:08it for. Now, the great news is that
  92. 3:10those two things are very easy to fix,
  93. 3:12and in the rest of this video I'm going
  94. 3:13to give you a five-step system to using
  95. 3:15ChatGPT to write viral LinkedIn posts
  96. 3:18very simply and very effectively. And if
  97. 3:21you follow that five-step method, those
  98. 3:22two things to worry about are things of
  99. 3:24the past because they're both controlled
  100. 3:26within this sequence.
  101. 3:31Before I get into those five steps, I
  102. 3:33want to quickly call out that if you are
  103. 3:34enjoying this video, please do like and
  104. 3:36subscribe. This is just one video I'm
  105. 3:38doing on a massive series on LinkedIn,
  106. 3:40how to grow on LinkedIn, how to become a
  107. 3:41key person of influence on LinkedIn, how
  108. 3:43to sell on LinkedIn, how to sign clients
  109. 3:45on LinkedIn, and everything in between.
  110. 3:47If you, like me, are trying to grow on
  111. 3:49LinkedIn, make sure you subscribe to not
  112. 3:51miss out on any of that cool content.
  113. 3:53I'm trying to build the biggest online
  114. 3:54community here on YouTube of people
  115. 3:56trying to grow on LinkedIn, and I want
  116. 3:58you to be a part of it. So, subscribe
  117. 4:00and let's get back to the video.
  118. 4:05Step one is to train your ChatGPT agent
  119. 4:08on your voice. Unsurprisingly, it's the
  120. 4:10part that most people skip. How do I
  121. 4:12know that everyone skips this step?
  122. 4:13Well, because if they didn't, everyone's
  123. 4:15LinkedIn posts wouldn't be sounding like
  124. 4:16ChatGPT. The fact that they haven't
  125. 4:18trained their agent on their voice is
  126. 4:21why every post that's AI generated
  127. 4:23sounds exactly the same. Well, how then
  128. 4:25can you train ChatGPT on your voice?
  129. 4:27Well, you can do this inside of LinkedIn
  130. 4:29and outside of LinkedIn. Inside, you can
  131. 4:31feed ChatGPT your 15 to 20 most recent
  132. 4:34LinkedIn posts or your 15 to 20 most
  133. 4:37effective LinkedIn posts that performed
  134. 4:38the best. That's going to train ChatGPT
  135. 4:41on how you like to speak, who you're
  136. 4:42trying to speak to, and that kind of
  137. 4:43thing. Outside of LinkedIn, you have a
  138. 4:46world of content that you can feed your
  139. 4:48agents to, again, help train it on who
  140. 4:51you are and how you like to talk. A good
  141. 4:52example of this is, why don't you feed
  142. 4:54your meeting recordings into ChatGPT?
  143. 4:56Copy the transcripts and give it to
  144. 4:58ChatGPT. Maybe even connect ChatGPT to
  145. 5:00your Gmail or your Slack or anything
  146. 5:03else that you communicate with people or
  147. 5:04clients or colleagues a lot on, and
  148. 5:06that's going to give it a wealth of data
  149. 5:08to scan, absorb, and learn from in how
  150. 5:11you like to speak. My ChatGPT has access
  151. 5:13to my entire Gmail, and I fed my ChatGPT
  152. 5:17everything, every email I've sent, every
  153. 5:18meeting I've had, and everything in
  154. 5:20between. And now it knows exactly how I
  155. 5:21like to talk, what phrases I like to
  156. 5:23use, what words I use in different
  157. 5:25situations, and that kind of thing. I'm
  158. 5:27then going to ask my ChatGPT to create a
  159. 5:30voice brief for me based on everything
  160. 5:32that it's learned from what I've fed it.
  161. 5:34It's going to produce a short document
  162. 5:36explaining how I like to talk, what I
  163. 5:38like to talk about, and the tone I use
  164. 5:40in those situations. Now, whenever I'm
  165. 5:42getting ChatGPT to complete a task for
  166. 5:44me centered around LinkedIn, I'm going
  167. 5:46to feed it that training doc on my
  168. 5:47voice, so it will always produce an
  169. 5:49output that is how I like to talk. That
  170. 5:51is now saved to a file and can be used
  171. 5:54every single time I speak to ChatGPT.
  172. 5:57Step number two is building an idea
  173. 5:59engine within ChatGPT, and it's the next
  174. 6:02level of training. So, we've taught it
  175. 6:04about how I like to speak, my tone of
  176. 6:06voice, what I like to speak about. It
  177. 6:08now needs to understand context, and
  178. 6:10context is a bit more at a business
  179. 6:12level. I'm going to feed ChatGPT now
  180. 6:14three things. The first is around my
  181. 6:16niche, so as much information I can give
  182. 6:19it about who I'm trying to target. How
  183. 6:21specific can I be? The more specific you
  184. 6:23are, the better the output will be every
  185. 6:26single time. Number two is the problems
  186. 6:28that that audience, that target market I
  187. 6:30have, the problems that they have.
  188. 6:31Because a lot of the LinkedIn posts and
  189. 6:33content we're going to produce is aimed
  190. 6:35at their problems. That's what's going
  191. 6:36to resonate, that's what they're going
  192. 6:38to engage with. So, the ChatGPT agent
  193. 6:40needs to fully understand what problems
  194. 6:42these people have in order to help you
  195. 6:44produce viral LinkedIn posts. Now, the
  196. 6:46third thing is I'm going to give it
  197. 6:48information and data on my previous
  198. 6:50LinkedIn posts. What posted well, what
  199. 6:52posted badly, and everything in between.
  200. 6:55The agent is then going to quickly start
  201. 6:56learning, "Okay, what did the successful
  202. 6:59posts do well that the unsuccessful ones
  203. 7:01didn't, and how can I replicate that
  204. 7:03success in future posts?" That is the
  205. 7:06context layer of your agent training
  206. 7:08complete. It now has information on you,
  207. 7:10so your tone of voice, how you like to
  208. 7:12talk, so it can actually speak in your
  209. 7:14tone without sounding AI generated. But,
  210. 7:16it also has context about what it
  211. 7:18actually actually should be talking
  212. 7:19about. What is the subject matter of the
  213. 7:21post? What's going to resonate with your
  214. 7:23audience? Now those two stages are
  215. 7:25complete, we can actually get to the
  216. 7:26exciting bit, which is starting to write
  217. 7:28the LinkedIn post. Step three, let's
  218. 7:30start writing the LinkedIn post, but we
  219. 7:31always start with the hook. Don't just
  220. 7:33go and ask ChatGPT to write a full
  221. 7:35LinkedIn post at this stage. Center
  222. 7:37around the hook, get that right, and
  223. 7:39then move on to the rest of the LinkedIn
  224. 7:41post. The hook is the most critical part
  225. 7:44of your LinkedIn post because if it
  226. 7:45doesn't engage them, they won't click
  227. 7:47see more and they won't even see the
  228. 7:48rest of your LinkedIn post. So, I like
  229. 7:50to spend 80% of my time on any LinkedIn
  230. 7:52post purely on the hook. Now, I'm going
  231. 7:54to open up a new ChatGPT window with the
  232. 7:56saved projects of my voice and the idea
  233. 7:59engine attached and now I'm ready to ask
  234. 8:01for some hooks. So, at this stage, I
  235. 8:03like to ask for 10 different hooks and
  236. 8:05they're almost like 10 different angles
  237. 8:07for a LinkedIn post. I then see all 10
  238. 8:09and I choose my favorite for this idea
  239. 8:11because I like to be the one that makes
  240. 8:12the final decision on the hook and the
  241. 8:14subject matter of the post. I know my
  242. 8:16audience. As a human, I know exactly
  243. 8:18what's going to make another human stop
  244. 8:19scrolling in that moment. So, this is
  245. 8:21where I like to come in before I get AI
  246. 8:23to then produce the rest of the LinkedIn
  247. 8:25post and make that decision. So, I've
  248. 8:27picked my favorite of those 10 hooks.
  249. 8:29I'm now going to progress to step four,
  250. 8:31which is writing the full LinkedIn post.
  251. 8:33This is the prompt I like to use here.
  252. 8:34Under this exact hook, write the full
  253. 8:36LinkedIn post. Keep the hook word for
  254. 8:38word. My structure, short lines, one
  255. 8:41sentence per line, plenty of white space
  256. 8:43and with one question to the reader. No
  257. 8:45hashtag spams, no links in the body.
  258. 8:48Rely heavily on the training I've given
  259. 8:50you attached to this window when writing
  260. 8:52the post. Now, there are a couple of
  261. 8:53things I always enforce here. The post
  262. 8:55should be scannable and easily
  263. 8:57digestible. That means a lot of white
  264. 8:59space in the post. If it's a block of
  265. 9:01text, no one is going to read it. People
  266. 9:03are going to scroll right past it on the
  267. 9:04timeline and the LinkedIn's algorithm is
  268. 9:06then going to limit it massively. Ending
  269. 9:08with a question is a great way to
  270. 9:09increase engagement on your post. People
  271. 9:11are more likely to then comment on it.
  272. 9:13You can comment back and it creates a
  273. 9:14little bit of a cycle of engagement.
  274. 9:16Again, the algorithm loves this. If you
  275. 9:18did the first two steps right of this
  276. 9:19process, the LinkedIn post that comes
  277. 9:21out should actually surprise you in how
  278. 9:23good it is. It's going to be in your
  279. 9:24voice. It's actually going to sound like
  280. 9:26you despite you not having typed a
  281. 9:28single word. It's also going to be
  282. 9:30highly relevant and targeted to your
  283. 9:31target market. At this point normally,
  284. 9:34the post is about an eight or nine out
  285. 9:35of 10. To get it from an eight out of 10
  286. 9:38to a 10 out of 10, I do a two-step
  287. 9:40review process. The first is reviewed by
  288. 9:42AI in a different window, so not the
  289. 9:44same AI agent that actually wrote that
  290. 9:46LinkedIn post, does a brutal review, and
  291. 9:48then I do a manual one afterwards. So,
  292. 9:51I'm going to do this live. The prompt
  293. 9:52that you actually give ChatGPT in
  294. 9:54reviewing that post that it's just
  295. 9:55produced for you is this. Act as a
  296. 9:58brutal editor. Go through this post and
  297. 10:00remove every AI tell. Band list is em
  298. 10:03dashes, the word game-changer, let that
  299. 10:06sink in, I'm humbled, rocket emojis,
  300. 10:09fire emojis, in today's fast-paced
  301. 10:11world, any sentence that sounds
  302. 10:13impressive but says nothing. Replace
  303. 10:15anything vague with something specific.
  304. 10:18If a line doesn't sound like something
  305. 10:19I'd say out loud to a friend, rewrite it
  306. 10:21or cut it. Now, you might want to tailor
  307. 10:23that a little bit to your exact tones
  308. 10:26and what you want from that LinkedIn
  309. 10:27post, but that is what I like to do for
  310. 10:29myself, and the output is very good.
  311. 10:31Normally, just a few things will be
  312. 10:32tweaked and changed, but it's going to
  313. 10:34give it that little bit from an eight
  314. 10:35out of 10 towards a nine or a 10. But,
  315. 10:37of course, before I set that LinkedIn
  316. 10:38post live, I'm also going to do a review
  317. 10:40and a read-through myself, too. And if
  318. 10:42there's anything I want to tweak and
  319. 10:43change towards the end, I do that before
  320. 10:45then going and setting it live. What you
  321. 10:47should have in front of you now after
  322. 10:48following that five-step process is a
  323. 10:5110-out-of-10 LinkedIn post primed to go
  324. 10:54viral. But, you can rest assured that as
  325. 10:56well as reading very nicely, it's
  326. 10:57actually primed for virality because
  327. 10:59your ChatGPT agent had did the research
  328. 11:02on what topics you should be using,
  329. 11:03what's going to resonate with your
  330. 11:04target market, and what goes viral. I
  331. 11:07guarantee you, posting this LinkedIn
  332. 11:09post that you followed this five-step
  333. 11:10process to produce will have a much
  334. 11:12better engagement than what you've been
  335. 11:13using previously.
  336. 11:18That's it. I hope you enjoyed the video.
  337. 11:20That is how to go viral on LinkedIn
  338. 11:22using ChatGPT. I followed this exact
  339. 11:24process for my own LinkedIn profile
  340. 11:26accounts and the profiles that I manage
  341. 11:28for a lot of my clients, and it really
  342. 11:30is a game-changer for getting results on
  343. 11:32LinkedIn. Now, I want to personally
  344. 11:34invite you to my online LinkedIn
