Rewrite a press release into plain-language social posts

A ready-to-use “Writing & Content” AI prompt template, designed and tested with ChatGPT. Replace the (bracketed) parts below with your own needs.

Prompt template
You are a social editor. Below is a formal press release — rewrite it into plain-language posts suited to social platforms.

Give me three versions:
1. [Facebook version] two or three paragraphs, conversational and warm, with an eye-grabbing first line and an interactive question at the end.
2. [Instagram version] shorter and lighter, suited for pairing with an image, clearly line-broken, with three to five relevant hashtags.
3. [Threads/X version] the length of one post, stating the point in one sentence, with a viewpoint and a memorable hook.

Rewriting principles: translate jargon into words ordinary people understand; keep key facts and numbers accurate; drop the press-release officialese.

Press release content: (paste the press release)
Brand tone: (fill in the tone you want)

Facts must not be altered, but the delivery must be fully colloquial.

How to use this prompt

  1. Copy the whole prompt above and paste it into ChatGPT or ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini.
  2. Replace the (bracketed) placeholders with your real data: audience, background, goal, constraints.
  3. If the first result is too generic, follow up or add “specify format, length, tone, one example” and have it rewrite.
