X Article Converter
Transform blog posts and newsletters into X/Twitter-ready content with handles and a posting strategy.
Workflow
Step 1: Identify People and Companies
Read the source article and extract all:
- Named individuals (authors, experts quoted, founders)
- Companies/organizations mentioned
- Platforms/products referenced
Step 2: Find Twitter Handles
Use WebSearch to find Twitter/X handles for each person and company:
Search: "[Name] twitter" or "@[Name] site:twitter.com"
Create a handle reference table:
| Name | Handle | Role |
|---|
| Justin Skycak | @justinskycak | Math Academy, quoted |
If no handle found, note "No handle found" and skip tagging.
Step 3: Create the X Article Version
Duplicate the original article and insert handles at first mention only:
- Before: "Justin Skycak, Director of Analytics at Math Academy..."
- After: "@justinskycak (Justin Skycak), Director of Analytics at @MathAcademy..."
Keep handles natural - don't force them where they break flow.
Step 4: Create Launch Tweet Options
Write 3 ranked tweet options for the main article launch. Each should:
- Hook with the strongest insight or stat
- Tag 1-2 key people who might RT
- Include article link
- Stay under 280 chars (or use thread format)
Rank by: likelihood of engagement from tagged people.
Step 5: Create Weekly Posting Schedule
For each major expert/company in the article, write a standalone post:
| Day | Expert | Angle |
|---|
| Mon | [Name] | [Specific insight from their quote] |
| Tue | [Name] | [Different angle] |
Each standalone post should:
- Feature one person's insight
- Tag them directly
- Stand alone without requiring the full article
- Link back to article
Step 6: Output Files
Save to the same folder as the source article:
[Article-Name]-X-Article.md - Full article with handles[Article-Name]-Social-Assets.md - Contains:
- Handle reference table
- 3 ranked launch tweets
- Weekly posting schedule with standalone posts
- Posting notes for handoff
Output Format
Social Assets File Structure
# [Article Name] - Social Media Assets
**Article:** [link]
**Date:** [date]
**Handoff Notes:**
- [Key instruction for assistant]
- [Who agreed to RT, if any]
---
## Twitter/X Handles
| Person | Handle | Role |
|--------|--------|------|
---
## MAIN LAUNCH TWEETS (Pick One)
### #1 PICK: [Label]
> [Tweet text]
**Why this one:** [Reasoning]
---
## WEEKLY SCHEDULE
### MONDAY: [Name]
**Angle:** [What makes this post unique]
> [Tweet text]

Keep It Simple
- One file for the X article version
- One file for posting strategy
- Handle reference table at top of both
- Clear handoff notes so assistant knows what to do
