How to Create 30 Days of Content in under 60 Minutes Using AI (Claude + Canva)

Two years ago, I posted this video

teaching you how to come up with 200

social media posts in 10 minutes using

chat and Canva. But AI has advanced a

lot since then. So, I wanted to create

an updated version. In this video, we're

going to set up Claude and Canva so that

anytime you come up with a post idea,

you can create it right away with one

single prompt. Then I'll show you how to

batch create as many pieces of content

as you want in one sitting from

carousels, reals, and single image

posts. As always, timestamps are below.

Use them if you need them. Let's jump

in. This is our coffee for today.

[snorts] Would you believe I'm going

hot? I usually am an iced latte gal, but

we're going hot with stevia cuz believe

it or not, I actually like stevia. Step

one is pretty simple. We want to first

connect Claude and Canva. The reason I

love this combination is because Claude

is your like strategic thinker and I

feel like Claude is a little bit more

advanced than chatbt and then Canva is

like your creative design. What we're

going to do is come down to our account,

go to settings, and under customize

you'll have connectors. This is where if

you don't have any connectors already

set up, you'll want to add browse

connectors and make sure you search for

Canva. Before you do this, you obviously

want to make sure you have a Claude

account already set up and a Canva

account already set up. Once you add

Canva, you'll be prompted by Claude to

give Claude permission to fully connect

to Canva. So, you want to make sure you

give Claude full permissions to

integrate. Once those are connected,

you're going to now create a new

project. So, we're not really going to

start a new chat. We're actually going

to go over here to projects. Projects

are folders of multiple chats. That way

you can stay organized and focus on the

specific things that you're working on.

This is such a gamecher is because with

Claude, you can set and write

instructions for Claude to follow per

project. That way Claude already knows

everything that it needs to know about

your personal brand before you even

prompt it to create things for you.

Things like your target audience, your

brand voice, content pillars, your

personal goals, and the type of content

you want to create. So, it might take

you a minute to set this up with all of

the right info, but once it is set up,

Claude is going to work so much more

efficient and in line with you and your

personal brand. So, here we're going to

start a new project. And to name our

project, I'm going to do my brand name

and the platform that I want to be

focusing on or creating content for. So,

in this case, let's just say Instagram.

And then for the description or what

you're trying to achieve, this is kind

of the template that you're going to

fill out. You're going to say, "I'm a

like if you're a lifestyle content

creator or fitness fashion, I'm going to

say I'm a content creator coach trying

to grow to 500,000 followers on

Instagram in 6 months with reals and

carousels. create project. So now our

project is here with your project set

up. Now you want to upload logic for

Claude to follow anytime you ask it or

prompt it to create something for you.

So this is where you upload basically

all the logic about you and your

personal brand. We're going to go to

instructions and you're going to paste a

prompt that I've already created. For a

lot of the prompts that I talk about in

my videos, I have a free AI prompt

guide. It's any sort of AI prompt

content creators would need to grow and

scale their personal brand. We have

chatbt prompts and there's a whole

section about Claude prompts. This

prompt is specifically the social media

strategist prompt where you set Claude

to act as your social media strategist.

So this is the exact prompt that you're

going to copy and paste and you're just

going to fill everything in as much

detail as possible. So, this is where,

yes, it might take a little bit of time,

but once you fill it in once, you never

have to tell Claude who you are, who

your target audience is ever again. Once

those instructions are set, you can

create multiple projects for multiple

different platforms. If you're posting

to multiple platforms, ideally if you

are just starting out as a content

creator and you haven't seen like a

snowball of growth on one platform yet,

then I always recommend just start with

one platform and then you could branch

out after the ball is rolling somewhere.

So, we're just going to focus on

Instagram for today. I know we kind of

breezed over the projects, but I've

talked more about setting up projects

and using Claude as your social media

strategist before. So, if you want to

learn more about that side of content

creation, be sure to watch my other

Claude video that I have here on my

channel. If you're anything like me,

learning new ways to use Claude

literally just like brings me life. The

video that I have here on my channel

talks about seven different Claude hacks

that I've been using to automate my work

as a content creator. But if you are

looking for even more claude hacks and

like you're just like, "Seven is not

enough. I need more that I could use

right away." I do have a free gift for

you. So, our friends over at HubSpot put

together a free guide for anyone

watching this video called 60 Claude

Marketing Hacks for Marketers. Each

prompt is meant to help you do this

better than people who don't have it.

Everything from AI first content

creation to interactive dashboards that

reveal market opportunities. Think of it

as having a professional marketing

sidekick like right at your fingertips.

So, my favorite part about this free

guide is not only are they sharing 60

hacks, but they also included 10 new

Claude skill prompts. So, these prompts

are basically projects that you can set

and continue to reuse without needing to

reprompt Claude over and over. There's

one that I particularly like called the

hook creator skill that you could use to

generate scroll stopping hooks for ads,

emails, or even short form content using

proven copywriting frameworks. So

whether you're drafting emails or

planning campaigns, you can copy the

prompts straight into Claude and watch

the work practically do itself. Again,

this is completely free. All you have to

do is click the link in the description

to get access. And of course, a huge

thank you to HubSpot for sponsoring this

video and continuing to provide free

resources for anyone who's looking to

grow their marketing skills. Now, let's

jump into step three, and that's

actually setting up your Canva. This

step is the step that most people skip.

Now, I've seen a lot of people that make

videos about how to use Claude and Canva

to create hundreds of posts. And I mean,

like I had my video that I made two

years ago, but here's the thing. Most of

the time, the thing that I notice is

that the posts that are being created

are not really anything that I think my

audience or any audience would like

because they feel so generic. They feel

so Pinterest 2015. The goal is not to

create content just for the sake of

creating more content and batch creating

a hundred videos in five seconds. We

want to create content that your

audience would actually want to engage

with that feels on brand for you. So

that's why you don't want to skip this

step. What we're going to do is we're

going to jump into Canva and we're

actually going to set up our brand kit.

Now, I will say the brand kit is a pro

feature where you do have to pay for it,

but Canva is just like it's been my

go-to. I've been using Canva Pro for

years. I love it. I think it's

absolutely worth it. And what you're

going to do is within your brand kit,

let's go to my BSP model brand kit. You

just want to set up all the basics of

your personal brand. You want to choose

your brand colors of what you want like

your graphics. If you're creating

carousel posts or graphics, what do you

want those colors to look like? If you

have specific fonts and font layering

that you use, what are the fonts that

you like? You could even talk a little

bit about what your brand voice sounds

like, pre-upload photos, and so much

more. This is the brand kit that Claude

is going to pull from when creating our

social media posts. So now that we have

our brand kit done, next step we are

going to actually create some branded

templates. This is how you create AI

content that is like aesthetic. That's

you. You take the time to like set the

foundations of what a unique to you post

looks like. And once you have that one

template set up that you love, then

Claude can take that template and apply

it to any and every piece of content

that you want to create after. So it

does take a little bit extra time and

effort, but it is so worth it. So what

we're going to do is under home, we're

going to go to social media and you're

going to choose Instagram post 4x5.

We're going to do this for let's say

like a carousel post or if you just want

to do like one image with like a

motivational text or something. We're

going to go here. It's going to already

have the dimensions and start a project

for you in the proper dimensions. And

then you're going to scroll through the

templates and find one that you feel you

could use on repeat that feels true to

you and true to your personal brand. The

ones with the crown is the pro feature.

The ones without are free. Now, I

suggest making different types of brand

templates. So, you're going to do one

brand template that's a carousel, one

brand template that's just like one

quote, another brand template that's

maybe like for a real, and then that way

you have three different templates that

Claude can pull from when it's ready.

We're going to click this, apply all

four pages. And this is where you're

going to customize and make it your own.

You're going to make sure the font is

your font. Once you have your font, be

sure to apply to all

effects. This highlight color is not

really on brand for me. So, we're going

to do we'll do that. And then you get to

customizing. Let me show you one of my

templates that I have. So, let's go to

my branded templates. This is the

carousel template. Let's open it up.

Okay. So, this is my carousel template.

As you create your carousel template,

this is what you're going to do. You're

going to label what Claude needs to put

everywhere. So, this is like my main

heading. And so, I'm telling Claude,

"Hey, this is the main heading." And the

hook text of the carousel will go here.

Same thing, I just say subheading of the

carousel. Swipe right for more. Anything

that you don't really want to change or

you want Claude to change, you're just

going to select it and make sure it's

locked here. We're going to lock. And

now we're this one piece of font like

canvas. Now this font or this text

Claude's never going to touch it. So

like all of these here, I can make sure

it's locked. This I can make sure it's

locked. And then for the other pieces,

this one is heading text. This is like a

short paragraph. For the rest, we have

like step or number. So, this is usually

like five steps or whatever steps

creators need to d and Claude will just

fill in the rest. And then I have my CTA

at the very end. When you're done,

you'll want to be intentional with what

you're saving the template as or the

project name. So, this is Imm Instagram

carousel template number one. I'm going

to press share. And you could save it as

a brand template. That way it gets added

directly to your brand kit. So if I go

here to my brand kit, boop, and I have

my brand templates, these are the

templates that Claude will be using and

making copies of when creating content

for me. Like I said, I have one for like

a swipe carousel. There's also one that

is just a like motivational text one

slide like a one post a one picture a

one slide post where it's just like one

what am I trying to say it's just one

image there we go it's one image with

like a motivational quote right and then

also um reals I have like a reals

template which we'll talk about the

video reels because they're not quite

there and claude are not quite there

when it comes to like video reels but

we'll talk about that in a bit so you're

creating your brand templates. You have

a carousel one with the proper labels,

right? On brand for you, and then you

have like a motivational quote that's

just like one image. Let's say it's in

your branding, in your fonts.

Everything's ready there. If you've

learned something new so far, be sure to

give this video a thumbs up. And if you

learned two new things by the end of

this video, consider subscribing since

it's a free way to support me and my

channel and allows me to continue to

create free content like this for you

every single week. Now, let's move on to

our next step because this is where

things get kind of crazy. We're going to

actually start creating content. And

when you prompt Claude, there's a

bajillion ways you could do this. So, I

think we'll just take it like one thing

at a time. Let's say you want to batch

create a bunch of these like

motivational single image posts. Let's

say you want to batch create those. You

want to do 20. You want to do 25. You

want to do 100. Doesn't matter. You want

to batch create some. What you're going

to do is we're going to ask Claude to

help us come up with these motivational

quotes. So, first we're going to say,

"Give me a list of 20 motivational

quotes for aspiring content creators

and entrepreneurs."

Boom. Now, if we're asking for a list of

20 motivational quotes in our brand

template, I'm going to edit my template

and I'm going to make sure I have 20

standalone images. So, if I just have

one template here, there's just one. I'm

going to do this view. We're going to

add 20 pages. We're just going to

duplicate this 20 times or keyboard

shortcut is window D or command D. We're

going to make 20 blank pages for Claude.

Perfect. And now we're just going to

update these changes. Should be good to

go. Your job is to go through all 20 of

these quotes and make sure they sound

like you. Make sure it's something you

would say. Make sure it's you. It's your

brand voice. And when you have 20 that

you like, you're going to say, "Could

you use my insert brand kit in Canva and

create a design for each of these quotes

using the insert the name of the

template, motivational quote sample

template in my brand templates folder.

There are 20 slides in that template, so

should be enough for all of the quotes.

So, I'm just pretending all of these are

perfect right now. If I had gone through

and customized it, I would list out all

updated 20 quotes here. But for sake of

time, we're just going to say these are

perfect. I'm going to send this off to

Claude and take a sip of coffee.

Because this template is in the brand's

template folder, Claude will not be

actually editing our template. So, we

could continue to reuse this. Claude

created a copy. So when Claude is done,

literally all of our stuff will be

linked here. So we just press open link

and boom, shakalaka. We have all 20

motivational quotes already created by

Claude. Okay. Now, what about what about

carousels? Let's do carousels. So I with

my carousel, it is I believe five tips.

It's one two three four five call to

action. So, I'm going to ask Claude,

"Can you create 30 educational carousel

ideas for me?" Each idea needs to be in

a fivestep or five tips or five tools

format cuz that's what my template is

in. Now, again, there's a million

different ways you could go about this.

You could take one idea at a time and

create one carousel at a time. Or if

you're feeling real crazy and you want

to outline 20 different carousel posts

in one sitting, you could and then have

Claude create 20 carousel posts in one

sitting. But Claude would just need all

the information for you. Remember, we're

not trying to have AI be our brains,

right? I want to still be its modern

millie. If I say, "Okay, here is five

tips to grow your first 1,000

followers." I want those tips to come

from me. So, we're going to follow like

a prompt like this. So, let's say you do

need help coming up with your five tips.

You could do something like this where

you say, "Let's start working on number

13. Help me turn this idea into a rough

carousel." And then you're going to give

Claude the outline of your carousel

template. So, you're going to say,

"Slide one, bold hook with a subheading.

Slide two, introduce the painoint or

interesting statistic. Keep it short.

Slide three through seven, those are the

tips. And then final slide is the call

to action. So let's do this one. When

you're happy, you can say, "Can you

reference my BSP model

brand kit and use the IMM Instagram?"

Now, we're just going to ask Claude to

turn this into our carousel, and

Claude's going to get going. Now, like I

said, you could do this, and you could

batch create like 20 or 30 carousels at

once. I think the easiest way to do that

is in Google Docs. So, here, let's just

create a Google Doc. We're going to take

all of these

one. Using the headings, we're going to

separate out each of the ideas.

You're going to outline each and every

carousel or have Claude help you outline

each and every carousel. When you're

done, you're going to press file and

download. Then you'll upload the doc

directly to Claude and say, "Use my

brand kit." and turn all of these

carousel posts into carousel posts in

Canva. It's going to take a lot longer.

Claude is going to take a lot longer to

do that, but it's possible. And that's

how you could just batch create a bunch

of carousels in one sitting. So, let's

go back to our carousel and see what

Claude has done for us. You don't need

100 followers to land brand deals. Here

are the five steps that actually work. I

love that. Oh my gosh, so good. And then

you could go in and customize. Now, I

did say I would touch on reels or short

form video. And right now, even if you

set up a reel as a brand template, for

example, I have this reel and it's set

up properly, right? Heading and hook

text, catchy subheading, it's set up the

right way that we would do for

carousels. Claude currently doesn't have

the logic to plug in text and edit the

video. I think that's coming. It doesn't

have it right now, but one thing that

you could do, and it's the similar tip

to what I did in my other video, and

this only works right now if you're just

putting like one line on your reel, like

a motivational quote or like one tip or

one thing. You know, the videos where

it's like B-roll with like a 7-second

video, B-roll, text, and trendy music.

This could work for batch creating a

bunch of those. So, let's go to social

media. Let's create Tik Tok video. We're

going to use this template because it's

like exactly what we're looking for. I'm

not going to worry about the video in

the background yet because I think I'll

change the video per piece of content.

But I mean, you could change the font,

whatever. Same thing. Update as you

need. What we're going to do to create a

bunch of reals, let's go back to those

motivational quotes. Let's use these

motivational quotes.

Now, we're going to go to apps and we're

going to bulk create. We're going to

enter data manually. Let's clear the

table off and let's just paste all of

our quotes. This is going to be like

each of our videos. So, we have all of

our videos or each quote per video.

We're going to press done. Then, we're

going to connect the data. So, we want

to connect our quote with where the

quote should go in Canva. So, I'm going

to go more, press connect data, and now

we'll continue. So, we're going to apply

this, and we're going to create 20

separate designs to make 20 different

reels. View design. So, now we have 20

different videos. What I would do is go

in and like customize, add B-roll

specifically for that quote. And what

you could do like before you make a

bunch of copies, I probably should have

done this on the last step, but I would

get rid of the audio and I would make

sure the video length is 7 seconds. So

that way before you bulk create, you

just have a bunch of 7-second videos

that were bulk created at once. So

technically, if you follow all these

steps, you can create unlimited pieces

of content because you could batch

create like 20 motivational quotes or

even a 100 motivational quotes in one

sitting. You could batch create 50

carousels in one sitting. You could even

batch create simple reals in one

sitting. Now, let me just say just

because you could batch create a bunch

of content in one sitting, that doesn't

mean that content is going to perform

well. I feel like this strategy is not

to be used with the expectation that you

will see growth from it. I would only

use this if I needed to just put things

up or like fill in space. So, for

example, when I took my maternity leave

and I was not creating for 3 months,

this is the type of like filler content

that I would post just to post just to

tell the algorithm I'm being consistent

without expectations of it performing

well. So, maybe one week it would be

like Monday is the motivational quote,

Wednesday is the real and then Friday is

the carousel, right? And then if I did

that for 3 months, that's 12 to 15 weeks

of content. three posts per week. That's

anywhere between 36 and I don't know,

math. [laughter]

That's more than 36 posts. That is the

type of situation that I would use this

for. I wouldn't use this as like a way

to try to shortcut your way to fast

growth because this isn't a growth

strategy. This is simply a strategy that

you can use to maintain your presence on

social media. So, just want to properly

set those expectations there. If you

want to hear about any more claude hacks

or if you have any follow-up questions

about this process, just let me know

down in the comments below. Thank you so

much for watching and I'll see you in

the next one. Follow your joy. Bye.
