Want to run your blog on autopilot? These 5 AI automation workflows will save you hours every week — no tech skills needed.
Whether you’re a beginner or an overwhelmed solo creator, these exact workflows helped me automate my blog setup, write posts, repurpose content, and grow my email list with almost zero manual effort. In fact, most were set up in a weekend.
Let’s break down what AI automation workflows are, why they matter for bloggers, and how you can copy mine today.
🧠 What Are AI Automation Workflows?
AI automation workflows are pre-built systems that combine AI tools and no-code platforms to complete repetitive tasks automatically. For bloggers, this means:
- Writing content faster with ChatGPT or KoalaWriter
- Sending automated emails via ConvertKit
- Scheduling videos and social posts with Buffer or Zapier
- Tracking performance in Notion
Think of them as your virtual blog team — saving you time, helping you stay consistent, and growing your audience while you sleep.

⚙️ Workflow 1: Blog Post Outline Generator (ChatGPT + KoalaWriter)
Purpose: Plan and write blog posts 10x faster.
This automation uses ChatGPT or KoalaWriter to generate a full SEO blog outline from a single prompt.
Prompt Template:
You are an expert AI blogging coach. Write an SEO-optimized blog outline for ‘[topic]’ including H2s, bullet points, call-to-actions, and beginner-friendly tips.
Workflow Steps:
- Drop your topic into ChatGPT or KoalaWriter.
- Copy the outline into your blog editor.
- Fill in with AI-generated content and personal edits.
Bonus Tip: Save your top 5 prompts in Notion for reuse.
📧 Workflow 2: New Subscriber Welcome Series (Zapier + ConvertKit)
Purpose: Automate your lead nurturing.
When someone opts in for your lead magnet (like the Free 7-Day Blog Guide), this workflow kicks in automatically.
Workflow Steps:
- Trigger: New ConvertKit subscriber
- Action: Send welcome email
- Action: Apply tag (e.g., “Free Guide”)
- Action: Notify you via Slack or email
This takes under 15 minutes to build using Zapier’s drag-and-drop builder. No coding. Just copy the template and customize your messages.
Pro Tip: Use ChatGPT to help write your emails. Then refine them with your own voice.

🎥 Workflow 3: Blog to Video Snippet (Pictory + Buffer)
Purpose: Repurpose written content into visual content.

Workflow Steps:
- Paste your blog post into Pictory
- Generate a 30–60 second video summary
- Export and schedule using Buffer or Hootsuite
Why it works:
- Reaches new audiences on video platforms
- Drives traffic back to your blog
- Increases visibility without extra writing

📲 Workflow 4: 5-Part AI Email Funnel (ConvertKit + ChatGPT)

This automation creates a sequence of 5 value-packed emails that sell your product, affiliate tools, or lead magnet.
Sequence Example:
- Deliver your lead magnet (e.g., Free Guide)
- Share your story or journey
- Recommend helpful tools
- Provide a mini case study or tip
- CTA to your tripwire offer or product
Tools Used:
- ConvertKit for automation

⏱️ Total Setup Time: Less Than 4 Hours
Here’s how long each automation took to build:
Task | Time |
---|---|
Blog Prompts (ChatGPT) | 15 minutes |
Email Funnel + Zapier | 30 minutes |
Pictory Workflow | 1 hour |
ConvertKit Emails | 2 hours |
Notion Setup | 30 minutes |
Time saved per week: 10+ hours
✅ What I’d Do Differently Next Time (For Better AI Automation Workflows)
Looking back, there are a few simple tweaks I’d make to improve how smoothly my AI automation workflows run:
- Add UTM tracking links to all Zapier actions to better measure where traffic and conversions come from.
- Start every blog with automation in mind — set up workflows like the welcome email and content repurposing from blog post #1.
- Connect Notion to Airtable earlier for a more powerful affiliate dashboard and performance tracking system.
Each of these would have helped streamline the automation even further and made my workflows more scalable from the beginning.
