Plan E: AI Writing Workflow (Long-form / Marketing)

ChatGPT / Claude

Have the model build a pyramid (conclusion first) or four-part (hook → problem → solution → CTA) outline, each section annotated with key points, data and visual ideas. Approve the outline before writing.

💡Lock the outline first to halve rework; leave data/case slots to fill in one by one.

Jasper / Writesonic / Claude

Generate one section per prompt (controlling tone, length and bullet usage). Avoid generating the whole piece at once — section-by-section drafts are structurally steadier and less robotic.

💡Give the model a sample paragraph (few-shot) to dramatically improve style consistency.

Grammarly / QuillBot + you

Verify every number, quote and 'according to a study' claim (AI fabricates sources); rewrite conversationally, cut redundancy, add transitions. This is the line between machine output and human work — never skip it.

💡Check numbers and proper nouns one by one; anything like '20% of users' must trace to a source.

Midjourney / Canva

Cover image plus one visual per section; graded headings, short paragraphs and whitespace. Layout decides read-through rate and is easier to neglect than the prose.

💡16:9 cover; keep all visuals in one style and palette to avoid a patchwork feel.

WeChat / Zhihu / Xiaohongshu

Adapt titles and openings per platform, then track reads, read-through and saves to refine topics and style for the next piece.

💡Post the same content with 2-3 titles and see which gets the clicks.
