6 Prompts to Turn Boring B2B Ideas into DM-Worthy LinkedIn Posts
“Good content starts conversations. Great content starts DMs.” — Every smart B2B marketer ever
Most B2B posts feel like a sales deck got loose in the comments.
Too many bullets. Too many buzzwords. Total snoozefest.
But the smart marketers? They don’t chase more content. They just write better stuff.
Here’s a trick that works:
The Hook-Lens-Prompt Formula
How to write a killer LinkedIn post in 30 seconds:
Grab a boring B2B update
(Like: “Demo requests dropped last quarter”)Paste this into Claude or GPT:
“Act like a B2B ghostwriter. Rewrite this as a personal lesson, not a press release. Add emotion, stakes, and end with a question to spark replies.”Toss it in Typefully. Schedule it. Done.
Real Example
Start with this:
“Our Q2 demos decreased 17%. We’re addressing this with better targeting.”
Turn it into this:
“Last quarter, our demo bookings tanked. -17%. Brutal.
We blamed ads. Then ICP.
But the real issue?
We stopped talking to prospects.
Sometimes, scaling hides sloppy messaging.
Anyone else seen this before?”
That version gets replies.
Prompt Pack (copy + paste these)
Rewrite this like a war story. What went wrong. How you fixed it.
Turn this idea into a 2-sentence post plus 1 sharp question.
Explain this like I’m your intern, not your investor.
Make this sound like a customer confession.
Add humor and honesty to this dry insight.
Format it as a “lesson learned the hard way.”
One smart move. Done in under 2 minutes.
