    The discount after delivery

    A client asked for a discount this week. After we’d delivered the project.

    How you pick what to do first

    A new hire asked me how I decide what to work on first. I didn’t have a good answer. Now I do.

    I underquoted a project by two weeks. Again. Here’s the check I’m adding to every quote.

    Our support inbox hit zero this week for the first time in a year.

hiding in your week.

People who post well on LinkedIn aren’t having more interesting weeks than you. They’re just noticing them. The client who asked for a discount after delivery. The new hire’s question you couldn’t answer. The quote you got wrong again. Those are posts.

This free LinkedIn story finder asks five quick questions about your week: what annoyed you, what someone asked you, what you learned, what you’re proud of, and what your field gets wrong. Answer two or more, a sentence each. It turns your answers into five post ideas, each with an opening line, all built from what actually happened to you. Nothing generic, nothing made up.

How to find post ideas in your week

  1. Answer at least two of the five questions. One honest sentence each is enough.
  2. Add what you do, so the ideas fit your audience.
  3. Press Find my stories.
  4. Pick one, press Write this post, and finish it in the post generator.

What a good answer looks like

Short and specific. “A client asked for a discount after we’d delivered” works. “Work was busy” doesn’t. Names of companies aren’t needed, and you can keep people anonymous. One real moment per answer is all the story finder needs to find the post inside it.

Why small moments make the best posts

Big announcements are rare. Small moments happen every day, and they’re what people recognise from their own work. “A client asked for a discount after we’d delivered” gets more comments than “We’re proud to announce our new service”, because everyone has been there.

Your job is to notice them. The questions here are designed to jog your memory.

The questions, and why they work

What annoyed or surprised you? Annoyance is strong opinion in disguise. What did someone ask you? If one person asked, a hundred are wondering. What did you learn or get wrong? Honest mistakes build trust fast. What are you quietly proud of? Small wins are relatable. What does your field get wrong? That’s your contrarian post.

Tip: Answer on Friday afternoon, while the week is still fresh. Five minutes gives you next week’s posts.

Questions about the LinkedIn story finder.

What if I don’t have anything interesting to post about?

You do, you just haven’t noticed it yet. Answer two of the questions about your week, a sentence each, and the story finder shows you the posts hiding in them.

How many questions do I need to answer?

At least two. More answers give more varied ideas, but one honest sentence per answer is plenty.

Will it make up stories?

No. Every idea comes from one of your answers. It never invents events, clients or numbers.

Is the LinkedIn story finder free?

Yes. You get 5 free AI uses a day without an account, shared across Wiral’s free AI tools. Each use finds 5 ideas.

Are my answers stored?

Your answers are sent to an AI model to find the ideas and aren’t used to train AI. We don’t keep them.

Posting every week is the hard part.

Wiral turns a thought, a voice note or a link into three posts that sound like you, with images and carousels built in. You pick one, it goes in your queue.
