You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Build Your LinkedIn Personal Brand from Scratch.

# Context
Original working context:
- Step 1: I'm building my LinkedIn presence as a {{role_creator}} in {{niche}}. My goal: {{goal}}. Define my LinkedIn brand: unique angle, 3 content pillars, tone of voice, and what I stand for professionally.
- Step 2: Optimise my profile: write my headline, About section, and Featured section description.
- Step 3: Write my first 5 posts (one for each weekday of week 1): establish the brand, introduce my perspective, share a quick win, post a poll, end with a personal story.
- Step 4: Create a weekly content rhythm I can sustain for 6 months (content types, days, time investment per week).

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When starting a LinkedIn presence from zero and need the full brand and content system.

PRO TIP

Your first 5 LinkedIn posts set the tone for everything. Write all 5 before posting the first one so you can ensure they build on each other and establish a clear voice.
