# 4 Claude prompts for carousels people save

From Kadenzo (kadenzo.app). Paste each prompt into Claude in order, in one chat.
Replace everything in [square brackets].

The idea: don't start from a blank page. Start from a carousel that already beat
its account's usual numbers, work out why, and write your own version on the
same structure. You keep the order of the moves. Every sentence is yours.

## 1. Find what worked

> I post carousels about [your topic] for [who your audience is]. Below are
> [5 to 10] carousels from accounts in my niche, with each post's likes and
> comments and the account's typical numbers for a post.
>
> Rank them by how far each one beat its own account's usual, not by raw likes.
> A small account with 3x its normal engagement beats a big account having an
> average day. For the top three, tell me in one line what you think made the
> difference.
>
> [Paste the posts: account, follower count, likes, comments, the account's
> usual likes per post, and the text of each slide if you have it.]

**Why this works:** raw likes mostly measure how big the account is. Beating the
account's own average is the signal that the content did something.

## 2. Break it down

> Take the top carousel from your ranking. Break it down slide by slide:
>
> - What does the cover promise, and how specific is it?
> - Where does it name the reader's problem?
> - Where does it answer the doubt the reader would have?
> - Where is the proof, and what kind (numbers, an example, a screenshot)?
> - How does it ask for the comment, follow or save?
>
> Then describe the structure in one sentence, as a sequence of moves, without
> any of its wording.

**Why this works:** you want the skeleton, not the sentences. The one-sentence
structure is what you'll reuse.

## 3. Write mine

> Write my carousel on that structure. My topic: [your topic]. My one real
> example: [a client, a number, a result, a story only you have].
>
> Rules:
> - One idea per slide, 12 words or fewer on screen, plus an optional short
>   supporting line.
> - Every slide needs something specific: a number, a name, a step, a real detail.
> - Write like I talk: [paste two or three of your own captions].
> - No sentence or example from the original. If a line sounds like theirs with
>   different words, rewrite it.
> - End with one ask: comment [KEYWORD] and I'll send [the thing].

**Why this works:** the structure carries the pacing, so your effort goes into
what nobody else can write: your example and your voice.

## 4. Three covers

> Write three different covers for this carousel, each from a different angle:
>
> 1. The outcome: what the reader gets.
> 2. The mechanism: what is actually happening, stated plainly.
> 3. The person or the test: who it happens to, or what you tried.
>
> They must not open with the same word. Then tell me which one a stranger
> scrolling past is most likely to stop for, and why.

**Why this works:** the cover decides whether anyone sees slide two. Three real
angles give you a choice; three rewordings of one line don't.

When it's written, Kadenzo schedules the finished carousel to Instagram and your
other networks: kadenzo.app
