Content Repurposing with AI
Content repurposing with AI starts from one finished source and produces several shorter formats, each built around a single claim from the original — instead of three vague summaries of the whole thing.
- Publish the long piece once.
- Plan to cut it into posts "when there is time".
- It never gets cut.
- 1
Extract the claims first
Ask for the five most specific claims in the source, each with the sentence that supports it. Pick the three you would defend in a meeting.
- 2
One claim per format
A LinkedIn post, an email and a 60-second script each get one claim. Repurposing fails when every format tries to say everything.
- 3
Give format rules, not adjectives
"Under 120 words, first line is the claim, no hashtags, ends with a question" works. "Make it engaging" does not.
- 4
Supply your voice
Paste two pieces you wrote and like. Ask it to match sentence length and vocabulary.
- 5
Cut before you publish
Delete the first sentence of each draft. It is usually a warm-up.
SOURCE below is a finished piece of ours. Step 1. List the 5 most specific claims in it. After each, quote the supporting sentence. (Stop here and wait for me to choose three.) Step 2. For the three I choose, write: - LinkedIn post: under 120 words, first line is the claim, no hashtags, ends with a question - Email: subject line + under 100 words + one link - 60-second script: spoken language, short sentences, one example Use only facts from SOURCE. Match the voice of MY SAMPLES. MY SAMPLES: [paste two] SOURCE: [paste]
Claim chosen: "The first AI task should be narrow enough that one person can check the result in a minute." LinkedIn: The best first AI project is boring. "Summarise these approved notes into five points" beats "transform our department" — because someone can check it in a minute. If nobody can verify the output quickly, the workflow dies after one use. What is the narrowest task on your team's week?

Review checklist
- Each piece makes one claim, and the claim is in the source.
- No statistic appears that was not in the source.
- It sounds like your brand, not like a template.
- Links and names are correct.
Where this workflow stops
- Sources you do not own or have no right to adapt.
- Turning one thin post into ten thinner ones. If the source has one idea, make one more piece.
