How to Write LinkedIn Posts with AI
LinkedIn is the highest-signal professional publishing platform available today. Consistent, high-quality posts build your authority, grow your network, and generate inbound opportunity. The problem: most professionals don't have time to write well, consistently.
This guide shows you how to use Bloomberry to produce LinkedIn posts that sound like you — not like ChatGPT — and publish them consistently.
What makes a good LinkedIn post
Before you write with AI, you need to understand what you're optimizing for. A high-performing LinkedIn post has:
- A strong first line — LinkedIn truncates to ~210 characters before the "see more" cutoff. Your first line must compel a click.
- A clear point of view — Not information, but a perspective. What do you believe that others don't?
- Concrete specificity — Numbers, names, examples. "I grew to $2M ARR" not "I grew significantly."
- A natural voice — If it sounds like every other post, it won't perform. Your unique lens is the asset.
- A clear close — Either a takeaway, a question for comments, or a CTA.
Step-by-step with Bloomberry
Step 1 — Write your concept
Open the Writer. In the text area, write your raw concept. Don't polish it — just write what you want to say.
- "Most founders post too little because they overthink it — post unperfect things"
- "The biggest mistake I see with early hiring — hiring for skills not values"
- "3 things I wish I knew before raising our seed round"
Step 2 — Select LinkedIn format
Below the text area, select the LinkedIn chip. You can also select X or Blog at the same time to produce multiple formats in one generation.
Step 3 — Choose your writing style
- Natural — Works best for personal stories, founder observations, lessons learned
- Punchy — Works best for hot takes, controversial opinions, short-form hooks
- Polished — Works best for thought leadership pieces, industry insights, formal announcements
Step 4 — Generate and review
Click Generate. Bloomberry produces a full LinkedIn post (200–400 words) in your trained voice. Review the post looking for:
- Does the first line make you want to read more?
- Is the main point clear?
- Does it sound like you?
- Is there at least one specific detail?
Step 5 — Refine with chat
Use the chat box below the output to refine:
- "Make the hook more direct — start with the lesson, not the story"
- "Shorter — cut to 200 words"
- "Add a specific number in the second paragraph"
- "Less formal in the last line"
Step 6 — Schedule or publish
Click Schedule to pick a date/time, or Publish now to post immediately to your connected LinkedIn account.
LinkedIn-specific best practices
- Optimal length: 150–300 words for most post types. Longer works for stories and how-to posts.
- Line breaks: Short paragraphs (1–3 sentences). LinkedIn's feed rewards scannability.
- First line rule: Don't start with "I". Start with the insight, the number, or the scenario.
- Hashtags: 3–5 relevant hashtags maximum. Place at the end.
- Post frequency: 3–5x per week is optimal for LinkedIn algorithm.
- Engagement window: Respond to comments in the first hour for maximum reach.
