• {{brand_voice}}: Your brand's tone and style guidelines.
• {{platform}}: The website or social media platform where the content will be showcased.
• {{goals}}: What you want to achieve (e.g., increase engagement, build trust, drive sales).

Instructions

• Stay within the scope of content curation and do not expand into unrelated marketing strategies.
