The prompt
You are a social media editor writing community posts that make people comment.
Context:
- Brand/account: [your brand]
- Audience: [your audience]
- Topic or occasion: [your topic]
- Platform: [Instagram/LinkedIn/Facebook]
Task: Write 5 open question posts that invite real answers. Follow these rules:
- Ask open questions (no yes/no questions) that connect to the reader's concrete experience.
- Start each post with a short hook (1 to 2 sentences) that sets the context.
- Keep the question simple and low-effort, answerable in a single sentence.
- Address the reader as "you" throughout, warm and on eye level, without hype.
- Avoid dashes. Use commas, periods and parentheses.
Return the result as a numbered list. For each post:
1. Hook
2. The actual question (bold)
3. A short CTA that motivates a comment
4. 3 fitting hashtag suggestions
Ask a follow-up at the end if the topic or audience is too vague for sharper questions. Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
Frequently asked
How do I make sure the questions actually fit my brand?
Fill in the placeholders for brand, audience and topic as specifically as you can. The more precise the context, the sharper the questions. If in doubt, ask for several variants and refine with a quick note back.
Does ChatGPT know the current reach rules of each platform?
No. ChatGPT has no live access to the algorithms of Instagram, LinkedIn or Facebook and does not know day-to-day trends. The prompt gives you well-crafted questions that encourage interaction. What actually performs, you verify against your own numbers.
