# LinkedIn Article Newsletter Writing

## Source Traceability

Primary source: Growth Hacking LinkedIn by Bjorn Radde, especially sections
3.4.3 "Article", 3.4.5 "Newsletter", and 3.7 "Social Selling Index".
Guidance is transformed and paraphrased.

## Reference Routing

| Need | Read |
|------|------|
| Long-form model and source notes | `references/core/knowledge.md` |
| Article and newsletter rules | `references/core/rules.md` |
| Article/newsletter templates | `references/core/examples.md` |
| Repurpose post into long-form | `workflows/repurpose-to-long-form.md` |

## Workflow

1. Decide whether the idea should be a post, article, newsletter edition, or
   series.
2. Clarify goal, audience, topic territory, cadence, and reader benefit.
3. Draft long-form content that teaches, explains, or synthesizes rather than
   advertising.
4. Add a short bio, profile link or next step, and a post teaser when relevant.
5. Check current LinkedIn article/newsletter capabilities before giving
   platform-specific publishing instructions.

- Build each newsletter around a specific professional topic.
- Use posts to distribute articles and newsletters, not as afterthoughts.
