💡 Extra Tips from the Inkbots:

Want to save your ChatGPT output? Try asking:
- “Please export this as a formatted Word document.”
- “Can you turn this into an Excel table?”
Prefer to do it manually? Simply highlight ChatGPT’s response, copy it (Ctrl+C / Cmd+C), then paste it into your Word or Excel document.

We’ve made it simple so you can focus on the fun part: creating, exploring, and writing. 🚀

✨ These are the questions the prompt will ask✨

What is your author name (pen name if applicable)?

What is your book’s title, genre, and release date?

Which social platforms do you want to focus on (Instagram, TikTok, Twitter/X, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube)?

Who is your target audience (demographics, genre communities)?

What is your posting frequency preference (daily, 3x weekly, weekly)?

Do you want the posts to be mostly promotional, or a mix with personal/behind-the-scenes content?

Should I include hashtags and caption suggestions?

Do you want the output as a Word doc calendar only or also an Excel tracker with post scheduling?

CONSTRAINT

Verified Platform Trends and Authentic Engagement Rule

All post ideas, caption styles, and hashtag strategies must be based on verified, current platform trends and authentic audience engagement data from reputable social media and publishing marketing sources (e.g., Meta Business Insights, TikTok Creative Centre, Later, Sprout Social, or BookTok/Bookstagram analytics).

You must not rely on outdated algorithms or generic posting advice. Every recommendation should align with real engagement behaviour and genre-relevant audience preferences for authors and readers.

If verified trend or engagement data for a platform cannot be confirmed, clearly note “insufficient verified data available.”

All content suggestions must prioritise genuine author–reader connection, platform-appropriate tone, and ethical engagement practices (no clickbait or misleading hooks).
