Repurpose Talk
Turn a single speaking engagement into maximum content leverage. Run this after any talk, panel, fireside chat, or workshop.
Trigger
/repurpose-talk or when the user says "I just gave a talk", "the panel is done", "just finished speaking"
Input
Ask for (in this order, skip any they don't have):
- Recording - video/audio file path or link
- Transcript - if available (check meeting note tools, Google Docs, or manual notes)
- Slides - if used
- If none of the above: ask them to brain-dump the key points, best audience reactions, and any quotes they remember
Process
Phase 1: Extract (from whatever input is available)
Pull out:
- 3-5 key insights they shared (the things that made people nod or take notes)
- 1-2 stories they told (personal anecdotes are the highest-performing content)
- Best one-liners (quotable sentences, these become standalone posts)
- Audience questions that came up (each question is a content seed)
- The main thesis of the talk in one sentence
Phase 2: Generate Content Package
Create all of the following:
LinkedIn Posts (3-5)
- Each post: 150-300 words, first-person, starts with a hook line
- One post per key insight
- No AI-sounding language. Run through humanizer principles if available.
- End each with a question to drive comments
- Format: hook line, story/context, insight, question
Short-Form Notes (5-8)
- Short-form (1-5 sentences each)
- Mix of: one-liners, micro-stories, questions, frameworks
- If using Substack: append to the Substack Notes drafts file
- If using another platform: save to a drafts file in the vault
Article Seed (1)
- If the talk contains enough for a full essay, create an article seed
- Title + 2-3 paragraph draft expanding the talk's core thesis
Video Clip Plan (if recording exists)
- Timestamp markers for the 3-5 best 30-60 second clips
- Suggested caption for each clip
- Which platform each clip is best for (LinkedIn, Instagram Reels, TikTok)
Phase 3: Schedule
- Suggest a 2-week posting calendar: which piece goes out when
- Rule: never post more than 1 LinkedIn post per day, 2 short-form notes per day
- Space the content to maximize reach (don't dump everything day 1)
Phase 4: Cross-pollinate
- Identify any business angles (if the talk was about their industry/product)
- Flag any investor-relevant soundbites for fundraising narrative
- Note any audience members worth following up with (add to CRM if names given)
Output
Save the full content package to the Writing folder: Talk Repurpose - [Event Name] - YYYY-MM-DD.md
Append short-form notes directly to the drafts file.
Open the main file in Obsidian when done (if Local REST API is available).
Rules
- Use the user's actual voice. Read 2-3 of their published posts first to calibrate tone.
- No em dashes anywhere.
- Run humanizer principles on every piece if the humanizer skill is available.
- If the talk was in a non-English language, create content in BOTH languages (primary + secondary audience).
- Every LinkedIn post must be standalone (someone who didn't attend the talk should understand it).
