│ BODY (story/value)                  │
│ - Formatted with line breaks        │
│ - Short paragraphs (1-2 sentences)  │
│ - Lists or numbered points          │
│                                     │
│ CTA (last 1-2 lines)              │ ← Ask for engagement
│                                     │

└─────────────────────────────────────┘

Character Limits

The first 210 characters are everything. If the hook fails, nobody clicks "see more."

Hook Formulas

What Works

What Fails

❌ "Excited to announce that we are pleased to share..." (corporate speak)
❌ "In today's rapidly evolving landscape..." (cliché, says nothing)
❌ "I'd like to take a moment to..." (slow, no hook)
❌ "Just published a new blog post!" (no value proposition)
❌ Starting with a hashtag or emoji

Formatting Rules

Line Breaks Are Your Best Friend

❌ Dense paragraph:
"I learned something important about leadership last week. My team was struggling with a deadline and instead of pushing harder, I decided to remove scope. The result was incredible — we shipped faster and the quality was better. Sometimes less really is more."

✅ Formatted for LinkedIn:
"I learned something about leadership last week.

My team was struggling with a deadline.

Instead of pushing harder, I removed scope.

The result?

We shipped faster.
And the quality was BETTER.

Sometimes less really is more."

Link Posts Strategy

LinkedIn penalizes posts with links (reduces reach). Workarounds:

1. Comment method: Post without link, add link as first comment, edit post to say "Link in comments"
2. No-link method: Summarize the content in the post itself, mention "DM for link"
3. If you must link: Put it at the very end, after strong standalone content

Content Pillars

Every LinkedIn creator should have 3-5 pillars they rotate through:

Algorithm Signals

Posting Schedule

Engage in comments for 30-60 minutes after posting — this is more important than the post itself.

Visual Content

# Generate a visual for a LinkedIn post
infsh app run infsh/html-to-image --input '{
  "html": "<div style=\"width:1080px;height:1080px;background:#0f172a;display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;padding:80px;font-family:system-ui;color:white;text-align:center\"><div><h1 style=\"font-size:56px;font-weight:900;line-height:1.2;margin:0\">The best code is the code you don&apos;t write</h1><p style=\"font-size:22px;opacity:0.5;margin-top:24px\">— Every senior engineer</p></div></div>"
}'

# Generate a professional photo for a personal post
infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input '{
  "prompt": "candid professional photo, person speaking at a conference podium, audience in background blurred, natural stage lighting, authentic moment, corporate event photography",
  "width": 1200,
  "height": 900
}'
