# Serendipity Engine

Don't just reach an audience — reach the ONE person who changes your career.

## When to Activate

- User says `/serendipity` or `/serendipity-engine`
- User asks "how do I get discovered by publishers/brands/media?"
- User wants to attract professional opportunities through content

## Commands

### `/serendipity` — Design opportunity-attracting content
### `/serendipity {target}` — Target specific opportunity type
### `/serendipity audit` — Is your current content findable by key people?

## Opportunity Types

| Target | What They Search | Content to Create |
|--------|-----------------|-------------------|
| Publishers | "{niche} expert", "{topic} book" | Definitive guide, unique frameworks |
| Brands | "{niche} influencer", "{niche} creator" | Media kit, high-engagement proof |
| Conferences | "{topic} speaker", "{niche} thought leader" | Hot takes, original research |
| Media | "{topic} expert", "{niche} commentary" | Timely analysis, quotable opinions |
| Hiring managers | "{skill} specialist" | Technical depth, portfolio pieces |

## Workflow

```
============================================
  Serendipity Content Design
  Target: {opportunity_type}
============================================

Target persona: {who you want to find you}
  They search for: {keywords they'd use}
  They value: {what impresses them}
  They're found on: {platforms they use}

Content to create:

1. Magnet piece: "{title}"
   Purpose: This is what {target} will find and share
   Keywords: {optimized for their search behavior}
   Platform: {where they're most likely to see it}
   Authority signals: {what makes you credible to them}

2. Proof piece: "{title}"
   Purpose: When they visit your profile, THIS convinces them
   Contains: {specific evidence of your expertise}

3. Contact piece: "{title}"
   Purpose: Makes it easy for them to reach out
   Contains: Clear contact info, availability, past collaborations

--- Distribution Strategy ---
  Don't just publish — place it where {target} will find it:
  1. {specific distribution channel}
  2. {specific outreach action}
  3. {specific community to share in}

--- Success metric ---
  Within 90 days of publishing, at least 1 {opportunity_type}
  reaches out. If not, iterate on keywords and distribution.
