What to hand over and what to keep
Not every job is a job for AI. A quick rule helps: hand over the chores, keep the choices.
Hand over
These jobs are slow for you and easy to check:
- A first draft of a post, an email or a caption.
- Five other ways to say the same line.
- Shortening a long text, or fixing spelling.
- Turning one idea into a version for each channel.
- Finding the best day and time, and filling a week.
- Looking things up in your own numbers and calendar.
Keep
These jobs need you:
- The facts. Prices, dates, names, opening hours, what is included. AI can get them wrong, and a wrong price is on you.
- What happened. The story of a customer, the thing you saw in class last week. AI was not there.
- Your voice. If a line does not sound like you, change it. Your brand voice in Postfjord helps, but you are the judge.
- The yes. You press Approve, Schedule or Publish. Not the AI.
- Replies to upset people. Let Bo draft a reply if you like. Read it, change it, and send it yourself.
Try it on your own list
- Write down your five jobs this week.
- Put each one in a box: hand over or keep.
- For each job in "hand over", write the check you will do before it goes out. For example: "I read the price and the date."
A job with no check you can do in a minute is one to keep.
How you know it worked
You have a list where every handed over job has a check next to it. The check is what keeps the speed from costing you a mistake.

Check what stuck
Which job is best to keep for yourself?
Show the answer
Telling the story of what a customer said in class. AI was not there. The true detail has to come from you.
A draft says "Class starts at 8 am". The class starts at 9 am. Who is responsible for the mistake going out?
Show the answer
You, because you press the button that sends it out. The yes is yours. That is why you read the facts before you approve.
When should you read a handed over job before it goes out?
Show the answer
Every time, even if the check takes a minute. Even small changes get a look. The check can be quick, but it always happens.
