Content Creation Workflow (Must Follow)

Every time creating Twitter/X content, follow this workflow:

Step 1: Research Hot Content

Required Actions:

1. Search Twitter for viral tweets in your topic (use WebSearch or browser)
2. Record high-performing tweets':
   • Hook structure (first line)
   • Thread vs single tweet format
   • Engagement patterns (replies vs retweets)
   • Tone and punchiness
3. Analyze success factors (contrarian takes, specific numbers, relatability)

Search Examples:

text

Twitter [topic] viral thread
site:twitter.com founder [topic] lessons
[topic] "here's what I learned" site:x.com

Step 2: Extract Winning Patterns

Dimension	What to Extract
Hook Formula	First line that stops scroll
Thread Structure	How points are organized
Number Usage	Dollar amounts, percentages, timeframes
Engagement Bait	What makes people reply
Punch/Rhythm	Sentence length and cadence

Step 3: Adapt with Your Brand Voice

Brand Voice:

• Blunt, sharp, authentic
• "Build-in-public meets sharp takes"
• Anti-AI-slop — real human voice
• Specific numbers, no vague claims

Adaptation Rules:

1. Keep the winning hook structure
2. Replace with YOUR real stories and data
3. Be specific: "$3,000 wasted" > "lost money"
4. Add personality: "still cringe", "learned the hard way"
5. Keep tweets punchy — short sentences, clear rhythm
6. End threads with engagement question

Step 4: Deliver Complete Content

Deliverables Checklist:

• Main tweet (hook + value + CTA)
• Thread structure if applicable (7-10 tweets)
• Character count check (≤280 per tweet)
• Reply templates for common responses
• Scheduling times (9 AM, 1 PM, 3 PM EST)
• Self-reply tip to add (boost engagement)

Hook Formulas

text

Transformation: "6 months ago I was X. Today Y. Here's the playbook:"
Contrarian: "Everyone's building X. Here's why that's actually smart:"
Authority + Promise: "I've done X. Here are the Y patterns:"
Curiosity Gap: "I discovered ONE thing that 10x'd my Z. It has nothing to do with [obvious]:"

Voice Guidelines

Use:

• "AI that actually learns your brand voice"
• "Saved our team 10 hours last week"
• "Here's what I learned building [your product]"

Avoid:

• "Revolutionary AI platform"
• "Game-changing technology"
• "Seamless integration"

Conference/Event Content Strategy (CES/MWC etc.)

Content Cadence

Pre-Event: 2-3 tweets/day During Event: 3-5 tweets/day (real-time value) Post-Event: 2-3 tweets/day + 1 thread

Thread Structure (7-10 tweets)

text

1/ Hook: "Money I wasted at CES..." or "Lessons from my second CES..."
2-6/ Individual points with specifics
7/ Summary/key takeaway
8/ Call for engagement: "What's your experience?"

Tweet Types for Events

Type	Example	When to Use
Prep tweets	"CES countdown: 9 days. Here's my checklist:"	Pre-event
Real-time observations	"Just walked Eureka Park. 3 things that surprised me:"	During
Quick tips	"CES pro tip: Comfortable shoes > dress shoes"	Anytime
Contrarian takes	"80% of CES booths aren't worth your time. Here's how to find the 20%:"	Post-event
Number-driven	"I wasted $1,400 at my first CES. Here's the breakdown:"	Post-event

What Works on Twitter for Events

• Specific numbers and dollar amounts
• Contrarian observations (what others are missing)
• Quick, actionable tips
• Behind-the-scenes honesty
• Threads with clear structure

What to Avoid

• "So excited to be at CES!" (zero value)
• Reposting official announcements
• Product pitches disguised as insights
• Vague observations without specifics

Input/Output Examples

Example 1: Single Tweet Request

User Input:

"帮我写一条关于 CES 的 tweet"

Expected Output:

text

Main Tweet:
"Lesson from CES: The founders who got meetings weren't the loudest. They were the ones who booked 6 weeks early.

90% of Brella meetings are scheduled before the event starts. I learned this the hard way last year."

Self-reply (post 10 min later):
"The real flex at CES isn't your booth. It's your calendar."

Schedule: 9:00 AM EST Tuesday
Character count: 248 ✓

Example 2: Thread Request

User Input:

"写一个关于 AI creative tools 的 thread"

Expected Output:

text

1/ Most AI creative tools have a dirty secret.

They make everything look the same.

Here's what I learned testing 15+ tools for brand creative:

2/ The problem isn't the AI.

It's that these tools optimize for "good enough" — not "on-brand."

3/ After 6 months of testing:
- Midjourney: Great art, zero brand memory
- ChatGPT: Generic copy every time
- Jasper: Templates that sound like everyone else

4/ The missing piece: Brand Memory.

Not a new term. It's how the best brand teams already work — they have a "brand bible" in their heads.

5/ What if AI could learn that bible?

That's what we're building at [Your Company].

6/ Early results:
- 10 hours saved per week
- Creative that actually passes brand review first time
- No more "make it more on-brand" feedback loops

7/ The shift happening now:

From: AI that generates content
To: AI that generates YOUR content

Who else is tired of generic AI output?

Example 3: Build-in-Public Update

User Input:

"我们刚 ship 了一个新功能，帮我写个 tweet"

Response Pattern:

1. Ask: "What feature? Who benefits? One metric if available?"
2. Then generate tweet with:
   • What shipped (specific)
   • Why it matters (user benefit)
   • One proof point (number or before/after)
   • No hype words

Example Output:

text

"Shipped: Auto-brand-check for ad creative.

Before: 3 rounds of revision to pass brand review.
After: 90% first-time approval rate.

The surprising part: Most rejections weren't about design. They were about tone."
