Use AnswerThePublic to surface the real, longer questions people type into search engines about what you sell, and walk away with one specific question that is worth a whole blog post.

1. In your web browser, go to answerthepublic.com and sign in to your free account.
2. On the homepage, click the Search Keywords tab, because the page opens on the Analyze My Website tab by default.
3. In the search box, type the plainest two or three word description of what you sell, with no business name in it.
4. In the country selector, choose the country you sell in, because it defaults to US.
5. Click Search.
6. On the report that loads, scroll to the section headed Search Modifiers.
7. In the Search Modifiers section, click List, which swaps the wheel diagram for a plain readable list of phrases.
8. Read down the list and pick one line that is a complete question a paying customer would ask out loud, not a curiosity question.
9. In the Search Modifiers section, click Export to save the rest of the list for future posts.

You will know it worked when the page shows a report headed with your keyword and a Search Modifiers section full of real phrases, and you have one complete question written down, something like how often should gutters be cleaned, that you could answer honestly in about 600 words.

Turn one topic into a blog post, a marketing email, social posts and ad copy in a single ChatGPT conversation, all in your business's own facts.

1. In your web browser, go to chatgpt.com and sign in.
2. In the ChatGPT sidebar, click New chat.
3. In the message box, paste the Business Facts block from the notes below, filled in with your own details.
4. At the end of that same message, type one sentence naming the topic you want to cover.
5. At the end of the message, type: Start with the blog post only, around 700 words, and ask me up to three questions first if anything is unclear.
6. Press Enter to send.
7. Answer any questions ChatGPT asks, in plain sentences, the way you would answer a customer.
8. In the same chat, send a reply naming the specific problem you want fixed, rather than saying make it better.
9. Once the blog post reads correctly, send: Now write a marketing email based on that post.
10. Send: Now write three social posts and three short ad headlines with descriptions, based on that post.

You will know it worked when the chat holds four separate pieces you can copy out, and each one names your actual business, your town, and the services you really sell, instead of generic filler.

Rewrite the AI draft so it sounds like you said it, and so every fact in it is one you can defend.

1. On the ChatGPT reply that holds your post, click Copy.
2. Paste the draft into a blank document in Google Docs or Microsoft Word, so you are editing your own copy and not the chat.
3. Read the whole draft out loud once, start to finish, before changing a single word.
4. Replace every vague claim with a specific one from your business, such as real numbers, years in business, town names, product names, and prices.
5. Delete any sentence stating a fact you cannot personally confirm, including awards, statistics, studies show, competitor comparisons, and any health, money, or legal claim.
6. Rewrite the opening two sentences completely in your own words, because that is the part readers judge you on.
7. Delete the AI tells listed in the notes below, including any sentence that only restates the sentence before it.
8. Split every sentence longer than about 25 words into two shorter ones.
9. Add one paragraph only you could have written, such as a customer story, a mistake you made, a local detail, or a real opinion.
10. Read the finished version out loud a second time and change anything you would not actually say to a customer on the phone.

You will know it worked when you can read any paragraph out loud and it sounds like you talking, and when you could point to a source for every fact in it if a customer asked where it came from.

Generate one picture for your post, in the right shape for where it will be published, and get the file onto your computer.

1. In ChatGPT, open the chat that holds your finished post.
2. In the message box, click More.
3. In the More menu, click Images.
4. In the message box, describe the picture in this order: the subject, the setting, the lighting, the mood, and the visual style.
5. At the end of that description, type the shape you need, such as landscape 16:9 for the top of a blog post or square 1:1 for a social post.
6. At the end of the message, type: no text or lettering in the image.
7. Press Enter to send.
8. Reply with one change at a time, such as make the lighting warmer, or move the subject to the left.
9. If the shape came out wrong, use the aspect ratio picker on the image to choose the shape you need.
10. On the finished image, use the save or download control to save the file to your computer.

You will know it worked when the image file is sitting in your Downloads folder, it is the right shape for where it is going, and a close look shows no garbled lettering, no extra fingers, and no warped logos.

Get the finished blog post into your website, formatted so both readers and Google can understand it, and live at its own web address.

1. In your website's admin area, click the button that starts a new blog post. The blog section is usually called Blog, Posts, News or Articles, and the button is usually labeled Add New, New Post or Create.
2. In the title field, type the headline from the finished post, keeping it to roughly 60 characters so search results do not cut it off.
3. In the main body area, paste the post using the paste-without-formatting shortcut, which is Ctrl+Shift+V on Windows or Command+Shift+V on a Mac.
4. In the body, set each section heading to Heading 2 using the editor's text style menu. Leave the post title alone, because your website already treats it as the top heading.
5. In the post's web address field, which is usually labeled URL, Slug or Permalink, shorten the address to three to five lowercase words joined by hyphens.
6. In the body, at the point where the picture belongs, add the image using the editor's image or media button.
7. In the image's own settings, type one plain sentence in the alt text field that describes what the picture shows, for example Technician replacing a kitchen sink drain pipe.
8. In the body, highlight a phrase that matches one of your existing service pages, then use the link button to point it at that page on your own website.
9. In the post's search settings, which are usually labeled SEO, Meta or Search appearance, type a meta description of 150 to 160 characters that says what the reader will get from the post.
10. Click Publish.

You will know it worked when the post opens at its own web address with your headline at the top, your section headings showing as larger bold text, the picture in place, and the internal link taking you to the correct page on your own site when you click it.

Get the finished email into your email platform with a subject line people will actually open, sent to the right group at the right time.

1. In your email platform, start a new campaign using the create button, usually labeled Create, New campaign or New email.
2. In the email body, paste the finished email using the paste-without-formatting shortcut, which is Ctrl+Shift+V on Windows or Command+Shift+V on a Mac.
3. In the sender fields, check that the from name shows your business name and that the reply-to address is a mailbox someone actually reads.
4. In the subject line field, type a subject of 30 to 50 characters and put the most important words first, because most phones cut the subject off after about 33 characters.
5. In the preview text field, which some platforms call the preheader, type 35 to 90 characters that add something new instead of repeating the subject line.
6. In the recipients step, select the list or segment this email is for.
7. In the campaign, use the send test option to send a copy to your own email address.
8. On your phone, click every link in the test email to confirm each one opens the right page.
9. In the scheduling step, set the send for a weekday morning between 8am and 11am in your customers' time zone.
10. Click Schedule.

You will know it worked when the campaign shows a status of Scheduled with the date, time and recipient count you chose, and the test copy on your phone shows the correct subject line, your images loading and every link opening the right page.

5. In the composer, upload the image or video file from the folder you made.
6. In the caption or description box, paste the caption text.

On LinkedIn: switch to the Page admin view first, then use the Start a post field in that view, otherwise you will post as yourself by accident.
