Multi-Modal Viral Content Factory: One Prompt to Rule All Socials
What This Workflow Does
This workflow takes a single core idea or article link and uses claude-3-5-sonnet and dalle-3 to generate a full week of content: a blog post, a 60-second video script, five LinkedIn posts, and 10 tweets, all perfectly formatted and ready for scheduling.
Who It's For
Solo creators and lean marketing teams who need to maintain a high-frequency social presence without spending 40 hours a week on content creation.
What You'll Need
- n8n account
- Anthropic API key
- OpenAI API key (for DALL-E)
- Buffer or SocialBu account
- Estimated setup time: 1.5 hours
What You Get
- 7 days of content from 1 idea in under 5 minutes
- Consistent brand voice across all platforms
- Visual assets generated automatically to match the copy
The Workflow
Input Core Content Idea
Start with an n8n Form or a simple Webhook. Input the topic, a few bullet points, or a URL to a source article. This is the seed for your entire week's content.
Watch out: The better your input 'seed', the less editing you'll have to do. Be specific about your target audience.
Generate Multi-Platform Copy with Claude
Send the seed content to Claude. Use a long-form prompt that specifies the tone, character limits for each platform, and unique formatting (e.g., line breaks for LinkedIn).
Watch out: Claude is better at maintaining a 'human' tone for LinkedIn; avoid using GPT-4 for the copy if you want to avoid 'AI-speak'.
Generate Visual Assets with DALL-E 3
Extract the key themes from the AI copy and generate 3-5 high-quality images using the OpenAI API. These will be used for the blog header and social posts.
Watch out: Use a specific 'style' keyword (e.g., 'minimalist tech illustration') in every prompt to keep your brand visual consistent.
Review and Edit in Google Docs
Push all generated content and images to a new Google Doc. This serves as your 'staging area' for final human polish before publishing.
Watch out: Don't skip the human review. AI can still get facts wrong or miss subtle brand nuances.
Schedule for Publishing
Once approved, use a SocialBu or Buffer node to schedule the posts throughout the week. The blog is sent to WordPress or Ghost via their respective APIs.
Watch out: Stagger the posts across time zones if you have a global audience.
