Tools used

Step by step

The workflow

Follow the sequence once, then adapt the prompts, checks, and handoffs to your own setup.

5 steps

Step01

Provide AI Content Tools

Give all employees access to a company-approved AI tool that helps with content creation. This could be a system like the 'Content Machine' that generates ideas and drafts, or simply providing access to a powerful LLM. The goal is to reduce the friction of starting from a blank page.

Example prompt
Act as a social media ghostwriter for a [Your Job Title] at [Company Name]. Your task is to draft a LinkedIn post based on my notes about a recent project. My notes: [Describe a recent project you completed, a challenge you overcame, or a key learning. For example: "Just finished a major data migration project. We moved our customer database to a new platform with zero downtime. The biggest challenge was ensuring data integrity during the transfer."] Draft a post that:
- Starts with a strong hook.
- Explains the project and its outcome clearly.
- Maintains a professional yet conversational tone.
- Ends with a question to encourage comments.
Step02

Launch a Gamified Challenge

Launch the program as a time-boxed competition to create focus and excitement. For example, run a month-long challenge like the 'Creator Cup' where employees compete by creating and sharing content.

Example prompt
Draft a company-wide announcement for a new employee advocacy program called the "[Competition Name, e.g., Creator Cup]". The goal is to make content creation fun and competitive. The announcement should be exciting and clear. Include these details:
- **What it is:** A month-long competition to see who can create the best content on LinkedIn and X.
- **Duration:** [Start Date] to [End Date].
- **How to win:** Earn points by posting (10 points) and engaging with colleagues' posts (3 points).
- **Prizes:** A $[Prize Pool Amount] prize pool, with weekly games and editor's picks.
- **How to join:** Join the #[Slack Channel Name] to share your posts and track the leaderboard. Make the tone energetic and encouraging.
Step03

Implement a Simple Points System

Establish a simple scoring system to track participation. For example, award 10 points for creating a new post on LinkedIn or X, and 3 points for engaging with a teammate's post.

Step04

Offer a Prize Pool

Set a budget for prizes, such as a $5,000 prize pool, to incentivize participation. To ensure fairness, include weekly games and 'editor's picks' that reward quality and effort, not just employees with large existing followings.

Step05

Foster a Supportive Community

Create a dedicated Slack channel, like '#reply-guys', for the competition. This space allows employees to share their posts for team engagement, ask for feedback, and support each other's efforts.

What good looks like

  • Participants publish original posts in their own voices
  • Scoring rewards useful content rather than raw posting volume
  • The team can measure participation and relevant reach without pressuring employees to post
