1. **For each post:**
- Hook line (first 1-2 sentences that stop the scroll)
- Full caption (platform-appropriate length)
- CTA
- Hashtags (platform-specific — 3-5 for LinkedIn, 15-20 for Instagram, 2-3 for X)
- Visual suggestion (what image/graphic/video would pair best)
- Best posting time suggestion
2. **Content mix** — vary between: educational, storytelling, promotional, engagement-bait (polls/questions), and social proof.
3. **Platform adaptation notes** — what changes between the LinkedIn version and Instagram version of the same idea, and why.
