🪄 Blog 2: How to Use Generative AI to Automate Your Content Workflow

Introduction

Creating content is time-consuming — but it doesn’t have to be. Generative AI can automate brainstorming, drafting, editing, and even publishing. Here’s how to build a streamlined content workflow that practically runs itself.

Step 1: Brainstorming with AI

Use ChatGPT or Jasper to generate topic ideas based on trends or your keywords.
Tip: Prompt example — “Generate 10 blog post ideas about AI tools for small businesses.”

Step 2: Outlining and Drafting

Feed your idea into a generative model like ChatGPT or Copy.ai. Ask for a detailed outline with H2 and H3 structure.
Then generate section drafts in batches — edit lightly for tone and accuracy.

Step 3: Editing and Optimisation

Use GrammarlyGO and SurferSEO to polish your text and improve readability + SEO.
Check for keyword density, transitions, and meta descriptions.

Step 4: Visuals and Multimedia

Use tools like Canva Magic Media or Pika Labs to auto-generate blog visuals or video clips.

Step 5: Scheduling and Publishing Automation

Use Make.com or Zapier to push your final drafts to WordPress or your AI-built site, auto-schedule posts, and share snippets to social media.

Conclusion

Generative AI doesn’t replace creativity — it amplifies it. Automating your workflow frees you to focus on ideas and audience engagement instead of repetitive tasks.
