Workflow
- Decide whether the idea should be a post, article, newsletter edition, or series.
- Clarify goal, audience, topic territory, cadence, and reader benefit.
- Draft long-form content that teaches, explains, or synthesizes rather than advertising.
- Add a short bio, profile link or next step, and a post teaser when relevant.
- Check current LinkedIn article/newsletter capabilities before giving platform-specific publishing instructions.
