Hey rebel solopreneurs 🦸♀️🦸♂️
Most solopreneurs spend years getting good at something.
Then they sit down to write a post about it — and 2 likes and silence is all they get.
Here's the thing: that's not a writing problem.
That's a framing problem.
The experience is there. The credibility is there. The hook just isn't packaging it right.
Picture this: that same experience — same results, same years, same wins — packaged into a 5-line post that pulls 40 likes and DMs from people asking to work with you.
There's one format that bridges the gap. It takes 5 minutes.
🧩 You provide:
What you do or have done (e.g. "I've helped 40 freelancers raise their rates")
A rough number that shows your real experience (years, clients, results)
🍿 What you get:
First — a short-form post that opens with your credibility and builds instant curiosity
Then — a reveal line that makes readers feel like they're getting insider access
Finally — a ready-to-post piece of content, 280 characters or less, written in your voice
⛳️ Here's the scenario
Jordan ran a one-on-one resume coaching business.
He helped mid-career professionals land interviews at companies they thought were out of reach.
He attracted clients through LinkedIn — short posts about job search strategy and what most candidates got wrong.
But his posts kept going nowhere.
Real advice. Real results his clients had seen. Real patterns from hundreds of coaching sessions.
Two likes. One comment from his mum.
Then one Saturday at a farmers market, he was killing time at a coffee stand — phone out, staring at a post he'd just written.
The woman next to him glanced over.
Short, practical-looking. The kind of person who looked like she'd been up since 5am.
"What are you working on?" she asked.
Jordan explained — the posts, the coaching, the silence.
She nodded once.
Turns out she'd been writing short-form content for founders and creators for six years. Part of Dickie Bush and Nicolas Cole's crew. (Jordan actually knew who they were — and nearly dropped his flat white.)
She looked at his post for about four seconds.
Then she rewrote the opening on the back of a receipt.
❌ What Jordan had: "After hundreds of resume reviews, I've noticed the same 3 mistakes that kill most applications before a human ever reads them."
✅ What it became: "I started reviewing resumes in 2018.
Since then, I've coached 200+ job seekers and watched 47 of them land roles they thought were impossible.
Want to know a secret?
I (pretty much) use the same 3 feedback templates every time."
Same advice. Completely different feeling.
"Why does that work?" Jordan asked.
"Specificity builds trust before anything else," she said.
"The number makes it real. The accomplishment makes people lean in. And 'want to know a secret?' — that line makes readers feel like they're getting inside access."
She slid the receipt across.
"One prompt. Plug in your topic. Five minutes."
Jordan opened his AI sidekick right there at the coffee stand.
🎯 Step 1: Turn your experience into a scroll-stopping hook
⏱️ 5 minutes
This prompt takes your real experience — years, results, clients, anything credible — and packages it into a short-form hook readers stop for.
Here's what it produces:
❌ Before: "LinkedIn algorithm tips that actually work — here's what I've tested over 12 months of posting."
✅ After: "I started posting on LinkedIn in 2021.
Since then, I've grown from 0 to 8,400 followers and had 3 posts break 100,000 impressions.
Want to know a secret?
I (pretty much) use the same 4 content formats every time."
Here's the prompt that did that:
I'm going to train you to write a "Secret Templates" short-form post
(280 characters or less per section).
I'll give you a topic I have real experience with.
You'll write a short-form post following the "Secret Templates"
template exactly.
You MUST follow the format of the template precisely.
Fill in all variables. Do not add extra sections.

Here is the template:
### My Secret Templates
I started {Credible Experience} in {Year}.
Since then, I've {Big Accomplishment 1} and {Big Accomplishment 2}.
Want to know a secret?
I (pretty much) use the same {Number} {Type} templates every time.
---
Here is an example of the completed template:
I started writing threads on Twitter in 2019.
Since then, I've written more than 200 threads
and accumulated over 50,000,000 views on Twitter alone.
Want to know a secret?
I (pretty much) use the same 7 thread templates every time.
---
Write like a human talking to another human.
Be specific — vague is useless.
Keep each section to 280 characters or less.
My topic: {e.g. helping freelancers raise their rates}
My credible experience: {e.g. freelance copywriter since 2019}
My big accomplishments: {e.g. helped 60 clients raise rates,
3 clients tripled their income}
My number and type of templates: {e.g. 4 pricing templates}
Jordan ran it with his resume coaching background.
The hook that came back matched almost word for word what the woman had sketched on the receipt.
He posted it that same afternoon.
🏆 Jordan's results
Before:
Posts full of real advice — pulling 2 likes and silence
Generic openers that gave away the value before the hook did its job
No way to show credibility without sounding like he was bragging
After:
A ready-to-post hook — written in 5 minutes flat
First post using the template pulled 47 likes and 8 new connection requests
Three people DM'd asking about his coaching — in the first 24 hours
Total time: 5 minutes. Not 3 hours wondering why nobody cares.
His AI sidekick packaged the experience Jordan already had into a format people actually stop for. Jordan just filled in the blanks. BAM.
One prompt. Five minutes. The experience you've been sitting on — packaged into a hook that makes readers feel like insiders.
That's it, my fellow outliers!
