A Social Media Automations Masterclass? You Got It.
From spreadsheet to scheduled posts, with custom captions and images for every network. No Cookie Cutter Posts — it's your brand and voice.
Fresh off the gauntlet that is Author Nation, instead of feeling wiped out and exhausted from my duties as programming chair and speaking four times, I’m feeling really energized.
Like really energized.
Like, “let’s do a two-hour webinar and show everyone how to use the coolest automation I’ve ever hacked” energized.
Here’s how it works:
Start with a spreadsheet, Notion, or Airtable. We’ll use ChatGPT to brainstorm your content ideas. Or, if you’re a non-AI using person (which is cool, we don’t judge in this family) you can populate your spreadsheet manually. I’ll give you lots of ideas. We’ll just call this “Chelle GPT” if you want.
Next, the four-million step automation I built for you kicks in. If you’re cool with AI, ChatGPT (or Claude, or Perplexity) will create different captions for all your social media networks:
Twitter (It will always be Twitter for me, but X, if you must)
Facebook
Instagram
LinkedIn (because WHY NOT if you’re automating it, right?)
Reddit
BlueSky
TikTok (it’ll create a script, which you can then use ElevenLabs to create the narration)
Medium.com
And your newsletter, if you want.
Then the automation will create a prompt to create an image using an AI image generator —or — retrieve a stock photo from one of the several that have an API. (Again, we don’t judge if you choose to not use generative AI for images. Indie Author Magazine doesn’t.)
After that, it’s all assembled into a spreadsheet (or Airtable, or Trello, or Notion, your choice) that lets you schedule it all to post directly to your social media channels, or you can upload it to a scheduler (I’ll show you which one I use and like).
Ready to set it up for yourself? Of course you are. You’ll go into 2025 with a confident method of consistently posting to all your socials (and your newsletter!) with the right captions for each channel. Knock that sucker off your to-do list every week, you rockstar.
Is this a Paid Webinar? Yes, but…
It’s only the cost of 5 quad-shot pistachio lattes. Or, absolutely free, if you’re a paid subscriber to this newsletter! For just $49 you’ll be ready for 2025!

Post your questions, or just head over to register! I won’t do this webinar again for quite a while, and not at this price again ever —this is something I promised my friends from Author Nation and Future of Publishing, so it’s long overdue.
Amazing! This is totally in the same arena as the presentation I gave at Author Nation -- minus the AI and with a Livestreaming focus. The spreadsheet I offered attendees is in Google Sheets, not Airtable, but very similar concept. Thanks for sharing! I look forward to learning more about your workflow.
This class was amazing! A bit like drinking from a fire hose, but so much good stuff!! Thank you, Chelle!
