Four posts. Four jobs.
Every post needs a purpose: it either helps people understand who you are on a deeper level, or it asks them to engage. Both open the door to a conversation.
Why this works. Nobody buys a $5,000 commission from a feed post. Content's job is trust and connection, and the sale happens later, inside a conversation.
POST → COMMENT → CONVERSATION → SALE
The post stops the scroll. A comment is someone opening a door. The conversation builds the relationship. The sale happens in the conversation, never in the feed.
Four intentional posts a week beats posting daily out of guilt. If a hard week only allows two, do Jobs 1 and 2 and let the rest go.

Step 1: set up your voice
Why this comes first. Every prompt in this tool writes in your voice, not AI's. That only works once you've built your Voice Brief, a short paragraph that captures how you talk. It gets added automatically to every prompt you copy. Do it once, it takes about ten minutes.
How your progress is saved: everything in this tool (ticks, counter, Voice Brief) saves automatically in this browser on this device. It doesn't sync between devices, so pick one and stick with it. Clearing browser data wipes it, so keep a copy of your Voice Brief somewhere safe. It also lives in your ChatGPT history.

One time, before anything else. Copy the setup below into ChatGPT, answer its interview, then paste the finished paragraph here and save.
Your four posts this week
How the post makers work. Each job has ready-made prompts. Tap "Write this post", pick a prompt, hit Copy, and paste it into ChatGPT (or any AI you use). It will interview you, ask it 2 or 3 questions, answer honestly with real details, and then it writes the post in your voice. You post that with your image or reel, and tick the job off. Your Voice Brief is attached automatically every time you copy.
SOS
I don't know what to post
For the days you sit down with nothing. This prompt interviews you, digs through your week, your work, your memories and the things that stopped you, finds the two or three threads worth posting, and then writes the one you pick in your voice.
The emergency button. One interview, one post, dug out of whatever your week actually held.
The gravity tool · optional
What gravity is. Something real in your life outside art, birdwatching, horses, baking, the sea, that your content can orbit. Post only art and process, and your audience fills with other artists, who rarely buy. Gravity content pulls in people from outside the art world who connect with you as a person first. If you have a genuine one, let it carry a good share of your week's posts. If you don't, don't force it. Purpose matters more.
Your scoreboard
Why conversations, not likes. Likes are admiration, conversations are where sales happen. Tap + every time a real back-and-forth starts from your content, in comments or DMs. That number is the only one that pays you. And remember: not every commenter buys big, some buy prints, some commission next year, some know your next buyer. You find out by talking, which is why every comment gets a reply.

A comment is a door.
Content that gets comments is wasted if you leave them sitting there. Reply to every one, ask something back, and when there's an opening, take it to DMs. The conversation is where the sale lives.
Why this matters most. Every comment is a person opening a door to you. Most artists leave them standing there. Walking through those doors, warmly, one at a time, is where commissions actually come from. Never sell or mention prices in comments, that always moves to DMs.
The protocol
- Reply to every comment, by name, like a text to a friend.
- End your reply with a question. It keeps the door open.
- Spot the warm ones. "Is this available?", "I love this", the regulars.
- Personal, or near money? Move to DMs. Never sell in comments.
- In the DM, it's the Conversation lesson. Understand them first, then "can I send it over?"
