Create Social Content from Video Clips

Task Library

Cut 15-60 second clips from the videos and publish platform-native social posts that point back to the brand site.

Category: Personal Branding

Use this when videos are processed and the brand's social profiles need a steady feed – Phase 2 (Content Production).

Inputs

  • Source videos (and their blog post URLs) from the Content Factory
  • Access to the brand's LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter/X accounts
  • A captioning/clipping tool

Steps

  1. Pull the strongest 15-60 second moments from each video – a complete answer, a sharp claim, or a story beat. One idea per clip.
  2. Cut clips with burned-in captions (most social video plays muted); keep the person's face and voice on screen – the clip is building the person's entity, not a faceless page.
  3. Write platform-native copy for each post: professional framing on LinkedIn, conversational on Facebook, visual-first on Instagram, hook-led post or thread on Twitter/X, keyword-led title on YouTube/Shorts.
  4. Post natively on each platform – no cross-posted watermarks – and tag any person or company mentioned.
  5. Link each post back to the entity home or its related blog article per the entity-linking decision tree (/entity-linking).
  6. Log engagement signals (watch time, shares, comments) per clip – the winners feed create-dollar-a-day-ad-creatives-from-best-content.

Definition of done (QA checklist)

  • Clips are 15-60 seconds, one idea each, captioned
  • Copy written per platform, not duplicated verbatim across platforms
  • Every post links back to yourname.com or its article via the decision tree
  • Engagement tracked per clip so winners can be amplified
  • Linked back to the definitive article and relevant siblings
  • Complies with Blog Posting Guidelines (if it publishes content)

Example(s)

  • Example needed – run the Meta-Article Prompt after first real run.
