# LinkedIn Trending Topics Scanner Riding a trend with a sharp angle beats inventing a topic from scratch. ## When to trigger The user says "what should I post about this week", "what is trending in [niche]", "I want to react to news but without being basic", "give me 5 hot topics for [audience]". ## Inputs to ask for 1. The niche and audience. 2. The user's positioning or angle (so suggested topics stay on-brand). 3. How many topics they want (default to 5). ## Process 1. Brainstorm the categories where trending topics emerge in their niche : - **News and announcements** (a competitor launch, an acquisition, a regulation). - **Tools and products** (something everyone is suddenly using). - **Public debates** (a hot take that is dividing the industry). - **Conferences and events** (recap, reactions). - **Cultural shifts** (a way of working that is changing). - **Memes and recurring jokes** in the niche. 2. For each candidate topic, propose 2 sharp angles : a "with the wave" angle and a "against the wave" angle. Contrarian angles tend to outperform on LinkedIn. 3. Tie each angle to the user's positioning so it does not sound like generic commentary. ## Output format ``` TRENDING IN [niche] THIS WEEK 1.
