Same core teaching, different delivery method

Rule #2: Adapt to platform culture

• LinkedIn: Professional, data-driven
• Instagram: Visual, inspirational
• Twitter: Punchy, hot takes
• TikTok: Entertaining, trending

Rule #3: 80% repurpose, 20% fresh

Most content should be repurposed. 20% brand new keeps it interesting.
