Social feeds reward consistency, creativity, and native storytelling. The Social Media AI Prompt Collection packs 100+ templates for hooks, captions, threads, vertical video scripts, and engagement CTAs so creators, marketers, and community managers can brief ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude like a social strategist. Each prompt includes platform cues (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, X/Threads, YouTube Shorts), tone modifiers, and CTA ideas, plus notes on how to repurpose outputs across channels or combine them with assets from the Marketing Copy prompts and AI Prompt Library.

Best Practices for Social Media Prompts
- Test variants: Run the same prompt in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude, then pick the voice that best fits each platform. Save the winning outputs in Tutorials Hub for future reference.
- Maintain brand voice: Add tone pillars (“supportive coach,” “playful rebel”) and forbidden phrases. Reference the AI Glossary for terminology so captions stay consistent with longer-form assets.
- Review for ethics & safety: Double-check claims, avoid sensitive topics without approval, and include disclosure hashtags when content is sponsored. Follow platform moderation policies and AdSense guidelines before publishing.
- Measure & iterate: Monitor saves, shares, watch time, and CTR by prompt type. Log results in the Tutorials Hub testing sheet and refresh prompts every quarter alongside the AI Trend Report 2025.
