How to Come Up with 30 Content Ideas in 3 Seconds (with AI)

Hey Reader—

Let’s be real: staring at a blank page is no fun.

It’s easy to feel stuck when you’re supposed to be creating consistently engaging content, but the ideas just aren’t flowing.

Here’s where AI and automation come into play. When it comes to generating content ideas, leveraging the right AI prompts can help you break through that blank-page paralysis in seconds.

Here’s how you can do it:

1— Choose Your Target Audience and Topic

Get clear on who you’re speaking to and what the focus should be. For example, let’s say your target audience is “small business owners” and your topic is “scaling with social media.”

2— Enter the AI Prompt

Use the AI tool of your choice (I recommend ChatGPT) and enter this prompt:

“Tell me 10 problems small business owners have about scaling with social media. For each problem, suggest a content prompt with 3 different angles (actionable, analytical, aspirational). Format the results in a table.”

3— Review and Refine the Results

You’ll get a list of problem-based prompts, each with three angles to choose from. This instantly gives you 30 different content ideas. For example, if the AI suggests that “small business owners struggle with engagement,” your three angles might be:

Actionable: “5 Quick Tips to Boost Engagement for Your Business on Social Media”
Analytical: “Why Your Engagement is Declining (and How to Fix It)”
Aspirational: “How These Small Businesses Turned Their Social Media Around and Boosted Engagement by 50%”

It’s nothing groundbreaking, but it gets you past that initial mental block and into action mode.

4— Select a Prompt and Get Creating

Pick the prompt that resonates most with your audience and start crafting your content. By giving yourself different angles to choose from, you keep things fresh and ensure your message aligns with your brand voice.
