Lesson 5 of 9 · 5 min
Use AI to draft, and a person to post
Writing five specific comments a day, every day, is where most people quit. An AI model is good at the part that makes it slow: reading a long post carefully and producing a first draft that engages with what it actually says. It is bad at the part that makes it work: knowing what is true about your business, and knowing when a draft sounds like a machine.
The prompt
Paste your one-page offer document from lesson two. Then the rules from lesson four, in full: two short paragraphs of specific value, a free ask tied to this post, under 120 words, no link, no compliments, no “great post.” Then the post itself, copied from the page. Ask for three drafts, not one, so you are choosing rather than accepting.
What you do with the draft
- Check every fact. The model will invent a plausible number if you let it. Replace it with yours, or cut it.
- Cut the first sentence if it restates the post. It usually does.
- Rewrite the ask in your own words. It is the sentence people reply to; it has to sound like you.
- Post it yourself, from your own account, by hand.
Checked The source has the AI write the comments at scale, and stops short of saying who posts them. Automated posting breaks the rules; identical text is what gets caught.
In the video Claude Code reads each scraped post and writes the comment, five hundred at a time, into a sheet. Section 8.2 item 13 of LinkedIn’s User Agreement: do not “use bots or other unauthorized automated methods to access the Services, add or download contacts, send or redirect messages, create, comment on, like, share, or re-share posts, or otherwise drive inauthentic engagement.” The Professional Community Policies separately forbid “gratuitously repetitive” content. Generating a draft is neither of those. Posting it by machine is the first, and posting the same opening line under thirty posts is the second. Keep the AI on the drafting side of that line.
