Producing high-quality content has become increasingly critical for success. With the ever-growing competition for attention online, having access to powerful tools for writing and editing is essential. 

Today we’ll explore the possibilities of the ChatGPT + Linguix bundle—a combination of cutting-edge AI technology and expert writing support that can help you take your content creation to the next level. Whether you’re a blogger, writer, or marketer, you’ll learn how to create even better content with the help of ChatGPT and Linguix. So let’s get started!

Step 1: Generate content with ChatGPT

To create new content with ChatGPT, you simply need to input a prompt or question, and it will generate a response based on its training data. This makes it easy to create content ideas, titles, summaries, entire articles, social media posts and more.

Additionally, ChatGPT can be fine-tuned for specific tasks and domains, allowing for even greater accuracy and relevance in its content generation. By providing the model with more specific prompts and corresponding examples of high-quality content, you can urge it to generate more accurate and relevant outputs. 

ChatGPT can also generate text in different styles, making its output more suitable for various purposes. The style of the generated content can be influenced by the type of data used to train the model, as well as the specific prompts provided.

In addition to the tone and style of the generated content, ChatGPT can also use different formats for its output. For example, it can generate content in the form of written text, bullet points, lists, tables, code, and more. This makes it a flexible tool for a wide range of content generation tasks.

An example of a prompt and the ChatGPT output

To get started, simply input a prompt, such as the one above, and ChatGPT will generate a response. The more specific you are in your prompt, the more fitting output you will get. You can then review and edit the generated content as needed to ensure that it meets your requirements.

Step 2: Polish your content with Linguix

Linguix is a writing assistant tool that you can use to simplify and polish the output generated by ChatGPT. Specifically, it helps you to refine the writing style and make it more suitable for a wide range of audiences by providing suggestions for simplifying complex sentences, improving grammar and spelling, and more.

Simplify sentences

Although ChatGPT is great at creating cohesive and relevant texts, it sometimes uses sentences that are too lengthy and cumbersome. Linguix can help simplify the sentences generated by ChatGPT by making suggestions for shorter and clearer word choices and rewording complex or convoluted sentences. This can make the content easier to understand and more accessible to a broader range of readers, improving its overall quality.

Increase readability

Readability refers to the ease with which a text can be understood by its intended audience. By making suggestions for shorter and clearer word choices and rewording complex or convoluted sentences, Linguix can help simplify the language used in the text generated by ChatGPT. 

In addition, Linguix has a content quality score feature that analyzes the text and provides a score based on factors such as sentence length, vocabulary complexity, and the use of passive voice. By using this score, you can assess the readability of the text generated by ChatGPT and make any necessary improvements to increase its readability.

Enhance brand safety

With Linguix, you can enhance the brand safety of a text generated by ChatGPT. Brand safety refers to the measures taken to protect a brand’s reputation and prevent the brand from being associated with inappropriate or harmful content.

Style guides provide guidelines for writing in a specific tone, style, and format and can help ensure consistency across all of a brand’s communications. Linguix allows you to create and store custom style guides, which can then be used to correct the writing of the text generated by ChatGPT.

In addition, Linguix can provide suggestions for avoiding sensitive or controversial topics, as well as language that may be considered offensive. This can help ensure that the text generated by ChatGPT is suitable for all audiences and enhances brand safety.

Automate communications

Linguix can help you automate communications with its shortcuts function, allowing you to quickly and easily insert frequently used phrases and sentences into your writing. This can save you time and effort and help ensure consistency and accuracy in your communications.

The shortcuts function can be especially useful for frequently used responses, such as greeting messages, standard answers to frequently asked questions, and more. In addition, you can also use it to insert boilerplate text, such as disclaimer statements or legal notices, into your writing, ensuring that all of your communications include the necessary information.

For example, you can use ChatGPT to generate a LinkedIn connect request template and then add it to Linguix as a shortcut:

Final thoughts

Combining the capabilities of ChatGPT and Linguix can help you create even better content with improved readability and enhanced brand safety, as well as save tons of time with shortcuts. Finetuning ChatGPT for specific tasks and domains and simplifying and stylizing text with Linguix enables you to produce high-quality content tailored to your specific needs and goals. 

Whether you’re looking to generate text for personal or professional use, the ChatGPT and Linguix bundle can help you achieve your content creation goals. So why not give it a try and see how it can benefit you today!

Candidate sourcing is crucial for todays business. According to statistics, around 70% of the global workforce is made up of passive talent who aren’t actively seeking for a job. This means that candidate sourcing is becoming more and more crucial for businesses. And one of the most effective sourcing instrument is text. 

The reality is that the vast majority of the workforce is not on the hunt for a new role. This ‘passive’ section of employees – comprising 70% of the total employment population as defined by recent statistics – is essentially inactive from a recruitment perspective, and therefore can only be solicited through the skill of candidate sourcing. Yet this is a skill that it seems is ever reliant on the power of language.

However, despite all the potential of written communication if done wrong it can seriously hurt and result in decreased response rates and, as a result, less filled positions.

With that in mind, the language involved in a carefully crafted message is critical to any success.

It is not only important to do right things, but also do not make mistakes that can eliminate all your efforts. Here are a couple of things the one should not do when working on a new content piece.

Don’t word count

A good writer treats the article as a whole and tries to tell a story. Having to keep in mind a required volume can kill creativity. If a company uses outsourced writers, linking their pay with the number of words is the worst thing to do. It prompts the writer to include empty information in the article to get more money.

Offline media has to consider the physical size of a newspaper. In terms of online media, blog posts and articles can be of any size, as there is nothing to limit it. Don’t worry that an article is too short, that doesn’t matter.  

Quite often, short articles consisting of a few paragraphs are read by thousands of people, while long reads that took weeks to prepare go completely under the radar.

“This-Has-Already-Been-Covered” policy leads to failure

It’s always tempting to be the first one to cover something. But most topics a company could elaborate on have been already covered by somebody else. This isn’t an excuse to sit and wait for huge breaking news that will explode on all blog platforms and attract the attention of the best media outlets.

Regular postings are an important component of successful content promotion. You can’t write something unique every time unless your company is a giant like Google or Facebook. This means that you’ll have to learn how to find something newsworthy in unexpected places, look at existing topics from a new angle and compile different opinions and postings in order to channel a debate in the right direction.

Nobody wants your boring corporate news

With a few rare exceptions, corporate news doesn’t interest anyone except for founders, team members and relatives. So don’t publish press statements about a couple of new functions or changing the color of your menu buttons.

However, an article about how your company collected and analyzed data on audience preferences in order to introduce these features, or how changing the color of a button improved conversion and sales, could be appealing.

Earn the right to advertise

This is the single most important point. Former Apple staff and marketing guru Guy Kawasaki says companies should earn the right to advertise their products. If you start a conversation with your audience using press releases about your success, ignoring the interests of the readers, their numbers will not increase.

And vice versa, if your business wins an audience with compelling content, and then offers information about its goods and services to loyal readers, it will score really good results.

Here, we share with you some tips on starting up and perfecting corporate content, be it a blog post or professional column for a media outlet.

There is always a story to tell

First of all, don’t try to create perfect content. A common problem that unexperienced copywriters and content creators face is the tendency to be perfectionists — this is unnecessary in this context.

As far as the creation of corporate content is concerned, it’s worth saying that individuals usually view it as a business. This fact leads to such delusions as “quantity over quality,” “there is too much info on the web on this subject, let’s try something else,” or “we don’t have any news” and so on. At first, these arguments make some sense, but eventually, they only slow down content-making. As a result, companies waste a lot of time and resources, publications come out rarely, and it doesn’t help to increase the number of customers.

We have another suggestion: as soon as you have an idea for the content — put it into action. This will help you create a draft that can be modified, and then you can analyze the audience’s feedback. In any case, this will be a useful experiment.

There is no need to wait for a highlight or for a reason to write content. Don’t try to make ideal content, because it may be a real waste of time for you. If you don’t manage to reveal the topic by yourself — relax. Your competitors usually try to post more often than you, do not agonize over creating “the masterpiece” and feel free to use cliches.

The content must be useful for a reader

You should write about what you know. Also, write about things that really burn your heart. It means that even native advertising does not look like advertising.

In general, it means that corporate publications should be of some benefit to the readers. In business, this phenomenon is called “value added.” It is the answer to why people should buy this product or read this article. It is not very difficult to develop content that allows readers to solve their problems or to find answers. In fact, you have to be well-informed.

The first step to success: define your target audience

Before writing the text, try to define your reader. You need “to draw” your reader and be in his shoes. This approach will help you to understand what a person’s interests are. It’s the only way to create “added value”.

For example, there are a lot of articles for business leaders discussing content promotion through our partnering content agency’s blog. We usually deal with the content promotion. Our readers hire employees and make important decisions every day, so we try to answer all their questions concerning content marketing. For example, we tell them how to evaluate the effectiveness of the content.

Our second most important group of readers is marketers and editors engaged in content-making or in managing the process. We provide them with practical advice, statistics and frame their typical mistakes. These tips should be applied when creating content in any area.

Second step: make a plan of the text

The text needs to be logical and structured. The idea shouldn’t jump, and it is essential that the reader understands why he is given such information. This can be easily achieved by just making a plan before writing.

But don’t be too enthusiastic. Don’t go too deeply into details, draft a list of sections in simple shootouts and state the essential facts. This will help you to defeat “the fear of starting from scratch”. Quite often, the most challenging step in writing a text is to begin. But if you have a plan, the text appears by itself.

Check the facts and figures (experts involved)

If there are any facts or figures in the content, they must be checked. An error in the content of the company’s blog or the expert column can seriously affect business and spoil a company’s reputation.

It is therefore essential to check facts and figures, refer to the sources when quoting and give essential links, even if it is a translation from another language. This will help your readers to verify the original statements.

Try to involve experts, if possible. You need to stick to this approach as it helps to avoid problems after publication.

Don’t hesitate to edit

Don’t publish the text immediately after it is written. You will need some time to read it and do some editing. For example, the picture below shows a manuscript written by Fyodor Dostoevsky. As you can see, the author of «Crime and Punishment» did not hesitate to make changes. He added a lot of ideas by writing in the margins and crossing things out, and so on. Use this great writer’s approach as a role model on how to create content.

Besides, make some grammar corrections to facilitate language — Content Force is an excellent tool for solving this task.

Also, show the content to experts, managers or partners before it is published. And they can change a lot of things there. Be prepared to go through the whole piece one more time.

The importance of the heading and the lead

We live in the era of information overload. We are continually getting a significant amount of information. It is just impossible to read all the articles and references in social media feeds, so people have to choose. And the main factors affecting the choice of a reader are the heading and the lead.

Here are a few tips to create a high-quality heading:

  • A proper title gives a reader a bright idea of the text and intrigues. A right heading is shocking and makes you click on the content.
  • “How,” “why,” “why,” “what”, “when,” “what” — looks good in the heading, because given to understand that the text concerns some important things. Also, the heading should describe the action, and probably reveal some part of the intrigue.
  • Eliminate odd words. The shorter, the better

It’s not over when the text Is finished

It’s not enough just to write good text. You have to find your readers. As for the media, this problem is already solved, because they usually have their audience. But the corporate blog is another case — you need to think of involving readers.

You should spend as much time on the content distribution as you do on its creation. In a perfect world, you should develop a micro-strategy of promotion for each piece of content.

To increase the media outreach, it is crucial to choose the publication time and actively spread the reference to the content in thematic communities (e.g., Hacker News, Growth Hackers) and social networks. Remember also to re-post on popular sites — sometimes a re-post from a corporate blog on Medium can bring more readers than the story would have at the website only.
