The Simple Prompt I Use to Write Facebook Intros in Seconds

Sometimes, the small tricks are the ones people notice the most.

Kyle dropped the vlog showing the updates to the Wealthy Affiliate Image Studio, and I did what I usually do when something new shows up. I opened it immediately and started pushing buttons to see what would happen. If there is an image generator within reach, chances are I am going to use it.

Using nothing more than the key takeaways from the vlog, I generated an image for a quick test. The result looked good on the first try, so I figured I might as well turn it into a quick Facebook post and a short internal blog entry explaining the process.

That entire workflow took less than two minutes.

This morning I followed the same routine I usually do. Coffee first. Emails second. A random rerun of Hogan's Heroes somewhere in the background. Normal morning stuff.

But I discovered something interesting happened.

Two different people asked how I wrote the Facebook intro so fast. Not the image itself, they showed no interest in it. They were interested in the intro text for the Facebook post.

Both of them assumed there was some complicated prompt behind it.

There wasn’t. After hearing from two people and seeing two related questions about the same process, I knew there was real interest, so I decided to write this post.

The prompt is almost embarrassingly simple:

Please present this article for a Facebook post and include some of the info from it, along with hashtags.

That’s it.

You drop your article's full URL behind it, or you can add the entire text behind the prompt, let the AI read it, and it produces a quick social intro with hashtags already attached. The good news is that it will work with ANY AI Chat, so you do not have to rely on ChatGPT alone.

The reason it works is pretty straightforward. The model already understands the structure of a Facebook post. When you give it the article as context, it pulls out the main ideas and condenses them into a short, readable summary. The end of the prompt, "Along with Hashtags," is the icing on the cake because it helps people searching for your topic or post find it by hashtag.

If you want a few options, just follow up with another quick instruction:

Give me 2 or 3 different angles for the post.

Now you have choices. One version might be direct. Another might lean more conversational. Occasionally, one lands better than the others.

Pick the one you like and post it.

What used to take ten or fifteen minutes of fiddling around with wording now happens almost instantly. The image gets generated, the intro gets written, and the post is ready to go.

It’s a small workflow change, but those are often the ones that quietly save the most time. Especially if you publish often. I hope this helps.
