Interview the client and build a voice guide
Record 30–45 minutes on their opinions, stories and customers, and turn the transcript into a style guide the AI follows.
Our advice. No specific menus involved.
Draft with AI, then edit hard
Generate drafts from the transcript, then cut, add specifics and remove generic phrasing. Get approval before scheduling.
Our advice. No specific menus involved.
Write and preview in Taplio
Click Write a Post in the left sidebar. The editor shows which account you're posting as, counts LinkedIn's 3,000-character limit and saves automatically. Use the Edit / Preview toggle to check desktop and mobile, including where "see more" cuts in.

Add clients to your Organization
Organizations need Growth or Pro. Invite the client; when they accept, they're added to your billing, charged immediately and pro rata. The Content Writer role can write for any account that has agreed to share access.

Common mistakes
- Posting without client approval. It's their name.
- A generic AI voice. Clients notice, and so do their followers.
- Pricing per post instead of a monthly outcome.
Rights and terms check
ChatGPT and Claude assign output to you, which you pass to the client. Read LinkedIn's User Agreement on third-party tools and account access before taking clients.
