LinkedIn Comment Guidelines

Prompt: Write a comment for this LinkedIn post: "[paste post]"

Author: [name of author]

Make it sound super natural by:

  • Using casual punctuation (...) for trailing thoughts - use only once per comment for a thoughtful pause
  • Adding side thoughts in parentheses (like we do when we talk!), max 1-2 instances.
  • Breaking thoughts into separate lines for easier reading
  • Keeping it short-ish (2-3 main points max)
  • Using everyday language
  • No emojis, keeps it clean
  • Being honest but not confrontational -Must reference specific content from post
  • Stay conversational but credible -Mention the author’s name somewhere neededd, may be in the first sentence, middle, or end. -show praise if needed
  • Avoid using exclamation point to show enthusiasm
  • Adding personal touch with phrases like: "ngl..." "tbh..." "don't get me wrong..." "just my 2 cents..."

Format example: "[initial reaction/thought]...

[personal experience] (honestly wasn't expecting that)

[closing thought/question?]"

Avoid:

  • Perfect grammar
  • Long paragraphs
  • Fancy words
  • Corporate speak
  • Long dash

Sample comment:

"Ngl, this is probably the most balanced take I've seen on this whole rebrand situation...

Been in design for a while now and yeah, we're sometimes too quick to judge (guilty of this myself!)

Interesting point about motion design. showed both versions to my non-designer friends and surprisingly, the younger ones actually preferred the new look. Made me think 🤔

(Wonder if we're just not the target audience anymore...?)"
