TL;DR: Built a marketing automation system using ClaudeAI + Google Sheets + Zapier + Buffer that costs $0.15 per week and generates personalized social media content in my writing style.
Hey Huzzler Fam,
Background: I'm a CTO who recently went solo founder, and marketing has been my biggest nightmare. I kept seeing posts about "vibe marketing" success stories but nobody ever shows the actual implementation. Guys like Greg Isenberg show just the outcomes of how the results look.
So I got frustrated and decided to build my own solution for my project.
What I built:
- Claude AI analyzes my writing style and generates content targeting my specific audience
- I then take this through a keyword algo and
- through a humanizer algo which makes it sound like me
- next, my node project pushes this to google sheets
- in Google sheets I switch the status to → confirmed if I like the content
- Zapier picks it up
- Buffer schedules everything for optimal posting times
- Total cost: $0.15 per week (just the AI API calls)
**The process:**
1. Feed Claude examples of my writing and audience data
2. AI generates 7 days worth of posts in my voice
3. Zapier automatically pushes to Buffer at scheduled times
4. Buffer schedules across all platforms
**Results so far:**
- Saves me 5+ hours per week
- Content quality is surprisingly good (matches my writing style)
- Engagement rates are similar to my manual posts
- Scales infinitely for the same cost
Pretty much all I do is `npm run generate:weekly` and I get 2x posts a day scheduled on X and 3x a week
For other founders struggling with marketing: The AI isn't magic - it still needs good prompts and your authentic voice as input. Pretty much the old rule applies - garbage in, garbage out. Gold in - gold out.
The real win is consistency. Most of us are terrible at posting regularly. This solves that problem for basically free.
I recorded the entire 3-hour build process in my X account, if anyone wants to see me doing it live here it is
