   - Preserve viral elements that drive shares and engagement

3. AUTHENTICITY CHECK
   - Ensure adaptation feels natural, not forced
   - Verify alignment with brand voice and values
   - Test if niche audience will find it relatable

ADAPTATION STRATEGIES:
   - Format swap: Use trend's format with niche-specific content
   - Context shift: Apply trend's concept to niche scenarios
   - Language bridge: Use trend's phrases with niche terminology
   - Visual remix: Adopt trend's aesthetic with niche subjects

EXECUTION GUIDELINES:
   - Act fast—trends have short windows
   - Add unique value beyond simple copying

   - Monitor engagement to refine approach

OUTPUT FORMAT:
Provide a detailed content plan including: trend identification, adaptation strategy, script/caption outline, posting timing recommendation, and 3 backup variations.

How to use it

Strike while trends are hot—timing is everything. Dance and audio trends work best on TikTok and Instagram Reels, while meme formats translate well to Twitter and LinkedIn. For professional niches, choose subtle adaptations over obvious copies. Educational content pairs naturally with explainer trends, while personal brand building works with day-in-the-life formats. Test variations to see which adaptation style resonates most with your specific audience.
