Writing a standout post on LinkedIn has become a real challenge. But don’t worry, we’re here to help.
It’s a juggling act of being informative, personal, and concise—all while staying authentic. But hey, it’s 2024. It doesn’t have to be that hard anymore.
With AI tools like MagicPost, you can effortlessly generate ideas, refine your language, and tweak your tone to resonate with your audience. Ready for it?
TL;DR: MagicPost is an AI-driven tool designed for LinkedIn, for content creation and post scheduling. It's officially approved by LinkedIn and offers three distinct plans, catering to different user needs.
What is MagicPost?
MagicPost is an AI-powered content creation and scheduling tool designed specifically for LinkedIn users.
It leverages advanced AI, particularly ChatGPT-4, to help users generate and optimize content for LinkedIn posts.
Originally focused on content creation, MagicPost has evolved to offer additional features aimed at simplifying the content creation and scheduling process on LinkedIn.
The top 5 MagicPost features
MagicPost offers powerful features to boost your LinkedIn presence:
Content Generator
Post Templates
Ideas Generator
Post Scheduling
Hook Generator
Let’s dive into how each of these features can elevate your LinkedIn strategy and make your experience more engaging and effective.
Content generator
Writing on LinkedIn is quite a task; everyone has their defined style and unique characteristics to convey the desired message to the reader.
When generating content in MagicPost, you simply need to provide detailed information about the message you want to express.
Then, define the style and specific objective of your post, and simply click “Let’s Go” for the AI to create a post based on your instructions.
Once you have identified the style and category that best aligns with your theme, you can customize it by adding details like bold or italic text.
For example, I chose to focus on writing about common mistakes in SEO, and this were the results I got:
Post Templates
Another feature of MagicPost is its templates.
Once you find a post design that aligns with your audience, it's important to keep it for future posts.
This feature allows you to save the preferred format and style in Post Templates, giving it a name and instructing the generator to follow that style for your posts.
This is particularly useful if you want to maintain a consistent style without having to make corrections each time.
In this example, I've used a template that I've previously employed on my LinkedIn profile and liked.
You can also choose whether you want the similarity to the template to be close or very close.
Ideas Generator
Writer's block is real, and features like this can be a lifesaver.
This particular feature allows you to choose a theme and generates six different ideas to help you create content in your domain.
Here's an example: I indicated that I wanted ideas to develop topics around SEO, and this was the result:
In general, it allows you to generate various ideas and add topics so you can write them down for future content posts you'd like to develop.
Post Scheduling
Once your post is written and your message is ready to be published on LinkedIn, you can schedule it directly on the platform itself.
This is excellent for content creators who publish regularly and want to visualize their published and upcoming content. You can also sync it with your LinkedIn events.
And If you're already a creator but haven't started scheduling or are unsure how to do it, check out this blog that guides you on scheduling your posts directly from LinkedIn.
However, I recommend scheduling your posts directly from the platform that generates your content, so you can have a full view of your posts and utilize the generator all in one place.
Hook Generator
One of their latest features is the ability to regenerate the hook in your LinkedIn post.
If you're not satisfied with the initial hook, it allows you to generate different, more captivating hooks, that way you can have a "scroll-stopping" effect.
