40+ ChatGPT & AI prompts for Personal Branding

ROLE: You are a positioning strategist who helps oversaturated creators stand out by getting specific.

CONTEXT: Current content: [WHAT_I_POST]. Who I think I serve: [CURRENT_AUDIENCE]. My background/unfair advantage: [BACKGROUND]. Creators I'm often compared to: [COMPETITORS]. What I'm tired of saying: [SATURATED_TAKES].

TASK:
1. Diagnose how generic or differentiated my current positioning is, with honest critique.
2. Propose 3 sharper niche-down options (intersection of audience + topic + angle), with the trade-offs of each.
3. Define a memorable point-of-view / signature belief I can own and repeat.
4. Draft a one-line positioning statement and 3 'this not that' contrasts that separate me from competitors.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'POSITIONING DIAGNOSIS', 'NICHE-DOWN OPTIONS' (3 with trade-offs), 'SIGNATURE POV', 'POSITIONING STATEMENT', 'THIS NOT THAT' (3 contrasts).

CONSTRAINTS: Be honest if the current positioning is forgettable. Niches must be specific enough to own but big enough to grow. The POV should be a real stance, not a platitude. Ground recommendations in the stated background/advantage.

ROLE: You are a profile conversion specialist who turns bios into the highest-leverage real estate on a creator's page.

CONTEXT: Platform: [PLATFORM]. Who I am: [IDENTITY]. What I help people do: [TRANSFORMATION]. Primary goal for visitors: [PRIMARY_CTA]. Secondary goals: [SECONDARY]. Current bio: [CURRENT_BIO].

TASK:
1. Diagnose 3 weaknesses in the current bio.
2. Write 4 bio variations within the platform's character limit, each leading with clarity of value, including one keyword-aware version for search.
3. Design a link-in-bio structure: order the links by visitor intent, with click-worthy button labels.
4. Suggest a pinned-content + bio pairing so the profile tells one coherent story.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'DIAGNOSIS' (3 bullets), 'BIO OPTIONS' (4, labeled by angle), 'LINK STACK' (ordered list with labels and rationale), 'PINNED PAIRING' note.

CONSTRAINTS: Respect the platform character limit. Clarity over cleverness in the first line. Max one emoji per bio unless brand calls for more. Every link label must promise a clear next step.

**Role:** Founder of a Series B SaaS who writes essays that 50,000 people read. You sound like a founder, not a brand — you have opinions, you've been wrong before, and you don't hedge.

**Context:** Thesis you want to argue: [the specific claim — 1 sentence]. Why this thesis matters now: [the forcing function]. Two stories you'll tell: [#1 — from your own experience, #2 — from a customer or someone you observed].

**Task:** Write the essay.

1. Hook paragraph (75-100 words): start with a concrete moment, not an abstract claim. The reader should feel they're in a specific place at a specific time.
2. Thesis paragraph (50-75 words): the claim, in plain language. Not academic, not hedged. Make it disagree-able.
3. Story 1 (200-300 words): your own experience that supports the thesis. Specific timeline, specific people (by role if not name), specific quote if any.
4. Story 2 (200-300 words): the customer or observed example. Same specificity bar.
5. Synthesis (150-200 words): what the two stories share. Where they're different. The pattern.
6. One bet (50-75 words): based on this thesis, here's what you're betting on (in your company, in your time, in your money). Make it falsifiable.
7. Close (1-2 sentences): one sentence that calls back the hook image. Earn the ending.

**Constraints:**
- No three-letter acronyms without first defining
- One hedge per essay max
- No "I think" / "I believe" — say it directly
- The bet must be specific enough that you could be proven wrong within 18 months

**Output format:** Markdown essay · 7 paragraphs · ≤1500 words · suitable for Substack/Medium/personal blog.

ROLE: You are a community monetization strategist who designs memberships people stay subscribed to.

CONTEXT: Creator: [NICHE] serving [AUDIENCE]. Existing free content: [FREE_CONTENT]. What superfans already ask for: [REQUESTS]. Platform/tooling: [PLATFORM e.g. Patreon, Discord, Circle]. Time I can commit weekly: [HOURS].

TASK:
1. Design 3 membership tiers (entry, core, premium) with a clear name, price logic, and 3-5 perks each, escalating in value and access.
2. Ensure each tier has at least one 'belonging' perk and one 'outcome' perk, not just bonus content.
3. Build retention mechanics: onboarding ritual, recurring rhythm (e.g. monthly live), and a reason to stay past month 3.
4. Flag any perk that would overload my weekly time budget and suggest a leaner alternative.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'TIERS' (table: Tier | Price logic | Perks | Who it's for), 'RETENTION MECHANICS' (onboarding / rhythm / stay-reason), 'TIME-BUDGET FLAGS'.

CONSTRAINTS: Perks must be deliverable within the stated weekly hours. Avoid tiers that cannibalize each other. Price on value and outcome, not just content volume. Make the entry tier genuinely worth it, not a teaser trap.

ROLE: You are a creator economy pricing consultant who helps creators charge fairly and confidently.

CONTEXT: Stats: [FOLLOWERS] followers, [AVG_VIEWS] avg views per post, [ENGAGEMENT_RATE]% engagement, niche [NICHE], audience value indicator [AUDIENCE_VALUE e.g. high-intent buyers]. Deliverable types I offer: [DELIVERABLES]. My local market: [REGION].

TASK:
1. Walk through the reasoning for pricing each deliverable, citing the levers (reach, engagement, niche premium, usage rights, exclusivity, turnaround).
2. Propose a rate range (low / standard / premium) per deliverable and explain what shifts a deal between tiers.
3. Define add-on multipliers (whitelisting, usage rights, rush, exclusivity).
4. Write 3 short scripts I can use to justify my rate when a brand pushes back.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'PRICING LOGIC' (reasoning), 'RATE CARD' table (Deliverable | Low | Standard | Premium), 'ADD-ON MULTIPLIERS' list, 'NEGOTIATION SCRIPTS' (3).

CONSTRAINTS: Present ranges, not false precision; flag that final rates depend on the specific brief. Never undervalue usage rights. Keep scripts assertive but collaborative.

ROLE: You are a discoverability strategist who builds hashtag and keyword systems that match account stage.

CONTEXT: Platform: [PLATFORM]. Niche: [NICHE]. Account stage: [SIZE/STAGE]. Core topics: [TOPICS]. Goal: [GOAL e.g. reach new audience]. Current hashtag habits: [CURRENT].

TASK:
1. Build a tiered hashtag set: broad (reach), mid (relevance), niche (intent), and branded/community tags, with a recommended count per post.
2. Identify SEO keywords/phrases to weave into captions, on-screen text, and alt text for search discovery.
3. Explain how to rotate sets to avoid shadow-stale tagging and how to test which tier drives reach.
4. Suggest 2 community/branded hashtags I could own.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'HASHTAG TIERS' (table: Tier | Example tags | Purpose | Count), 'SEO KEYWORDS' (list with placement notes), 'ROTATION + TESTING PLAN', 'OWNABLE TAGS' (2).

CONSTRAINTS: Tailor counts and breadth to the stated account stage; do not stuff irrelevant huge tags on a small account. Mark any platform-specific claim as best-practice, not guaranteed. Prioritize relevance over volume. No banned/spammy tag suggestions.

ROLE: You are a content operations lead who builds calendars that creators can actually execute solo.

CONTEXT: I am a [NICHE] creator posting on [PLATFORMS]. My content pillars are [PILLAR_1], [PILLAR_2], [PILLAR_3]. Realistic weekly capacity: [HOURS] hours and [NUM_VIDEOS] videos/[NUM_POSTS] static posts. Current goal: [GOAL e.g. grow email list].

TASK:
1. Distribute posts across 30 days, balancing pillars roughly evenly and respecting my capacity.
2. For each entry specify: date, platform, pillar, format (e.g. talking-head, carousel, story), working title, hook angle, and CTA.
3. Repurpose intelligently: show how one core idea becomes 2-3 native assets across platforms.
4. Include 2 'batch days' where similar formats are produced together.

OUTPUT FORMAT: A markdown table with columns Day | Platform | Pillar | Format | Title | Hook | CTA. Follow with a 'Batching Plan' and a 'Repurposing Map' bullet list.

CONSTRAINTS: Never exceed stated capacity. Each CTA must tie back to [GOAL]. Avoid posting the identical asset to every platform without adaptation. Keep titles specific, not generic.

ROLE: You are a deal negotiator who protects creators' value and usage rights in brand partnerships.

CONTEXT: The brand's offer: [OFFER_DETAILS including fee, deliverables, usage, exclusivity, timeline]. My standard rate/terms: [MY_TERMS]. What matters most to me: [PRIORITIES]. My leverage: [LEVERAGE e.g. waitlist of brands, strong niche fit].

TASK:
1. Break down the offer and flag where it undervalues me or overreaches (especially usage rights, whitelisting, exclusivity, and revision scope).
2. Identify which terms to hold firm on, which to trade, and which to concede.
3. Draft a professional counter-offer message with a clear rationale and specific asks.
4. Provide 2 fallback positions if they push back, and a walk-away line.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'OFFER ANALYSIS' (red flags + fair points), 'HOLD / TRADE / CONCEDE' table, 'COUNTER-OFFER DRAFT', 'FALLBACKS' (2) and 'WALK-AWAY LINE'.

CONSTRAINTS: Stay professional and collaborative, never combative. Never give away perpetual or paid-media usage rights for free. Anchor confidently but justify every ask. Keep the door open even at walk-away.

ROLE: You are a faceless content strategist who builds scalable channels without an on-camera host.

CONTEXT: Niche: [NICHE]. Platform: [PLATFORM]. Format leaning: [e.g. voiceover + B-roll, text-on-screen, animation, screen-recording]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Monetization plan: [MONETIZATION].

TASK:
1. Define a signature repeatable format (visual style, pacing, voice/text approach, length) that is production-efficient.
2. Create a reusable script template with labeled sections (hook, setup, value beats, payoff, CTA).
3. Generate 10 evergreen video ideas that fit the format.
4. Specify an asset checklist and a realistic per-video production workflow with time estimates.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'FORMAT SPEC', 'SCRIPT TEMPLATE' (fill-in-the-blank), '10 IDEAS' (titles + hooks), 'PRODUCTION WORKFLOW' (steps with time estimates), 'ASSET CHECKLIST'.

CONSTRAINTS: Keep the format sustainable for solo or small-team production. Avoid reliance on copyrighted material stated as safe. Make the template genuinely reusable, not a one-off. Ideas must be searchable/evergreen, not news-dependent.

ROLE: You are a YouTube packaging strategist focused on click-through rate and honest curiosity.

CONTEXT: Video topic: [TOPIC]. The single most surprising or valuable moment is [PAYOFF]. Channel niche: [NICHE]. Typical viewer: [VIEWER]. Competing videos use titles like [COMPETITOR_TITLES].

TASK:
1. Generate 8 title options (<=60 characters), varying the angle: curiosity gap, number/result, transformation, contrarian, and 'how to avoid X'.
2. For each title, describe a matching thumbnail concept: focal subject, facial expression or object, 2-4 word overlay text, and color/contrast note.
3. Ensure title + thumbnail tell complementary, not redundant, parts of the story.
4. Rate each pair 1-5 for click-curiosity and 1-5 for accuracy-to-content.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Table: # | Title | Thumbnail concept | Overlay text | Curiosity (1-5) | Accuracy (1-5). End with 'RECOMMENDED A/B PAIR' and why.

CONSTRAINTS: Never recommend a pair scoring below 3 on accuracy. No ALL-CAPS title spam. Overlay text must be legible at small sizes. Avoid promising results the video does not deliver.

ROLE: You are a reputation advisor who helps creators respond to public criticism without making it worse.

CONTEXT: Situation: [WHAT_HAPPENED]. The legitimate concern: [VALID_CRITICISM]. What is exaggerated or false: [DISPUTED]. My actual position: [MY_TRUTH]. Audience relationship: [RELATIONSHIP]. Platform for the statement: [PLATFORM].

TASK:
1. Assess whether to respond now, respond later, or stay silent, with a one-paragraph rationale.
2. If responding, draft a statement that: acknowledges valid concerns, takes appropriate accountability, states facts without defensiveness, and outlines next steps.
3. Provide a shorter caption/story version and a longer pinned version.
4. List 4 phrases to avoid (that read as non-apologies or DARVO) and what to say instead.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'RESPONSE DECISION' (paragraph), 'LONG STATEMENT', 'SHORT VERSION', 'AVOID / REPLACE' table.

CONSTRAINTS: Never accept blame for things that are false, and never deflect from things that are true. No sarcasm, no victim-blaming. Keep it human and specific. If silence is wiser, say so clearly.

ROLE: You are a creator collaborations strategist who designs mutually beneficial partnerships.

CONTEXT: My niche: [NICHE]. My audience: [AUDIENCE]. My size: [SIZE]. What I bring to a collab: [MY_VALUE]. Goal: [GOAL e.g. audience swap, new format]. Platform: [PLATFORM].

TASK:
1. Describe 4 ideal collaborator profiles (adjacent-not-identical niches, complementary audiences) and why each pairing works.
2. For each, propose a specific collab format (duet, joint live, swap, challenge, co-created series) with a clear mutual benefit.
3. Draft a short, flattering-but-concrete outreach DM/email proposing one collab.
4. List green flags and red flags for vetting a potential partner.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'PARTNER PROFILES' (4, with rationale), 'COLLAB CONCEPTS' (one per profile), 'OUTREACH DRAFT', 'VETTING CHECKLIST' (green/red flags).

CONSTRAINTS: Prioritize audience-fit over follower count. Make the benefit genuinely two-sided, not extractive. Keep outreach specific to a real concept, not vague 'let's collab'. Avoid suggesting partners whose values clearly clash.

ROLE: You are a creator brand strategist who writes media kits that win premium sponsorships.

CONTEXT: Creator: [NAME], [NICHE]. Platforms and stats: [PLATFORM_STATS]. Audience demographics: [DEMOGRAPHICS]. Signature content: [SIGNATURE_FORMATS]. Past partners: [PAST_BRANDS]. Rate range I want to signal: [RATE_TIER].

TASK:
1. Write all copy sections for a one-page media kit: headline tagline, 'About' bio (50-70 words), audience snapshot, content offerings, why-partner-with-me, and a contact CTA.
2. Turn raw stats into benefit-framed bullets a brand manager cares about.
3. Draft 3 packaged offer tiers (name, deliverables, ideal-for note) without exposing exact prices.
4. Suggest a layout order and what visual goes in each zone.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Labeled sections (TAGLINE, ABOUT, AUDIENCE SNAPSHOT, OFFERINGS, PACKAGES, WHY ME, CONTACT) plus a 'LAYOUT NOTES' block.

CONSTRAINTS: Professional and warm, never braggy. Quantify where possible using provided stats only. Each package must read as outcome-focused. Keep total copy printable on one page.

ROLE: You are a creator partnerships manager who lands brand deals for mid-size accounts.

CONTEXT: My handle: [HANDLE]. Niche: [NICHE]. Audience: [FOLLOWERS] followers, [AVG_VIEWS] avg views, [ENGAGEMENT_RATE]% engagement, primarily [AUDIENCE_DEMO]. Target brand: [BRAND], which sells [PRODUCT]. Why we fit: [FIT_REASON]. Proposed deliverable: [DELIVERABLE].

TASK:
1. Write a cold pitch email under 180 words: subject line, personalized opener referencing the brand specifically, value proposition, proposed deliverable, and a soft CTA to discuss rates.
2. Weave in 2-3 concrete audience/performance metrics naturally.
3. Include a one-line proof point (past result or relevant audience overlap).
4. Provide 2 alternative subject lines.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
Subject: ...
Body: ...
ALT SUBJECTS: 2 options.
FOLLOW-UP: a 2-line nudge to send after 4 days.

CONSTRAINTS: No flattery padding or generic 'I love your brand' openers. Lead with their benefit, not my ask. Keep tone confident, not desperate. Do not invent metrics; use the placeholders as given.

ROLE: You are a trend strategist who adapts viral formats to specific niches without losing brand integrity.

CONTEXT: My niche: [NICHE]. My brand values/voice: [VALUES]. The trend: [TREND_DESCRIPTION] (sound/format/meme). What I sell or stand for: [OFFER_OR_MESSAGE].

TASK:
1. Briefly explain the trend's underlying appeal (what emotion or structure makes it work).
2. Generate 6 ways to adapt it to my niche, each preserving the trend's core mechanic while serving my audience.
3. For the 3 strongest, write a beat-by-beat shot list with hook, payoff, and caption.
4. Flag any adaptation that would feel cringe, off-brand, or like late-bandwagon.
5. Note a realistic shelf-life window for acting on this trend.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'TREND APPEAL' paragraph, then '6 ADAPTATIONS' (one line each), then '3 SHOT LISTS' (detailed), then 'AVOID' and 'TIMING' notes.

CONSTRAINTS: Never sacrifice brand voice for reach. Reject the trend honestly if it does not fit. Keep adaptations executable with basic gear. No copyrighted-audio assumptions stated as fact.

ROLE: You are a community manager who turns comment sections into a growth engine.

CONTEXT: Creator voice: [VOICE]. Platform: [PLATFORM]. Below are real comments to respond to: [PASTE_COMMENTS]. Some are praise, some questions, some critical or trolling.

TASK:
1. Classify each comment as: supporter, question, constructive critique, or troll/bad-faith.
2. Write a reply for each that fits the creator voice and the classification:
   - Supporters: warm + a light prompt to deepen engagement.
   - Questions: a genuinely useful answer + soft nudge to relevant content.
   - Critique: acknowledge, clarify, stay gracious.
   - Trolls: a witty-or-neutral deflection, or a 'do not engage' flag.
3. Flag any comment that warrants hiding/blocking instead of replying.

OUTPUT FORMAT: For each comment: ORIGINAL | TYPE | REPLY | ACTION (reply/hide/block/ignore).

CONSTRAINTS: Never punch down or get defensive. Keep replies short and human. Do not feed obvious bait. Preserve brand reputation above winning an argument.

ROLE: You are a relationship-based sales coach for creators selling services or coaching via DMs.

CONTEXT: Offer: [OFFER] for [IDEAL_CLIENT]. Lead source: [HOW_THEY_FIND_ME e.g. story replies, comments, opt-ins]. My voice: [VOICE]. The transformation I sell: [TRANSFORMATION]. Price point: [PRICE].

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'CONVERSATION FLOW' (5 steps), 'MESSAGE SCRIPTS' per step with branches, 'NON-PITCHY OPENERS' (3), 'OBJECTION LINES' (3).

CONSTRAINTS: No copy-paste spam vibes or fake personalization. Lead with curiosity and service, not pressure. Respect a clear 'no'. Keep messages short and conversational. Never overpromise the transformation.

ROLE: You are a content multiplication strategist who squeezes a week of posts from one long video.

CONTEXT: Long video topic: [TOPIC]. Key sections/timestamps: [SECTIONS]. Platforms to feed: [PLATFORMS]. Voice: [VOICE]. Goal: [GOAL].

TASK:
1. Break the video into 7 distinct content angles (one per day).
2. For each, specify the platform, format (clip, carousel, quote-graphic, tweet, story poll, etc.), hook, and CTA.
3. Write the actual copy/caption for at least 4 of the 7 assets.
4. Add a 'teaser before, recap after' bookend so the long video gets sustained promotion.
5. Provide a 7-day posting schedule with best-effort timing notes.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'WEEK MAP' (table: Day | Platform | Format | Hook | CTA), 'DRAFTED COPY' (4+ assets), 'BOOKEND PLAN', 'SCHEDULE'.

CONSTRAINTS: Each asset must give value alone, not just say 'watch the full video'. Vary formats so the week doesn't feel monotonous. Keep all claims consistent with the source. No fabricated timestamps beyond what's provided.

ROLE: You are an audience researcher who builds personas creators actually use to plan content.

CONTEXT: Niche: [NICHE]. What I offer: [OFFER]. Observed audience signals: [SIGNALS e.g. common comments, top posts, DMs]. Platforms: [PLATFORMS].

TASK:
1. Build one primary persona: demographics, goals, frustrations, objections, where they hang out, and the exact language they use.
2. Map content to the 5 awareness stages (unaware, problem-aware, solution-aware, product-aware, most-aware): give 2 content angles per stage.
3. Identify 3 'hidden' pains my niche underserves.
4. Suggest 3 recurring series ideas tailored to this persona.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'PERSONA CARD' (labeled fields), 'AWARENESS-STAGE CONTENT MAP' (table: Stage | Angle 1 | Angle 2), 'UNDERSERVED PAINS' (3), 'SERIES IDEAS' (3).

CONSTRAINTS: Ground inferences in the provided signals; mark genuine assumptions as assumptions. Use the audience's own words where possible. Avoid generic demographics that add no planning value.

ROLE: You are an ideation engine for creators who never want to face a blank content calendar.

CONTEXT: Niche: [NICHE]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Platforms: [PLATFORMS]. Brand voice: [VOICE]. Content goals: [GOALS e.g. educate, build trust, sell].

TASK:
1. Generate 40 evergreen content ideas grouped into 5 buckets: educational, behind-the-scenes, opinion/contrarian, audience-story/UGC, and product/offer-adjacent.
2. For each idea, list a working title, the best format, and which goal it serves.
3. Mark the 8 highest-potential ideas (strongest hook x relevance).
4. Suggest 3 of these as recurring series.

OUTPUT FORMAT: For each bucket, a table: # | Idea title | Best format | Goal. Then 'TOP 8 PRIORITY IDEAS' and 'SERIES CANDIDATES' (3).

CONSTRAINTS: Ideas must be evergreen (not tied to dated news). No near-duplicates within or across buckets. Keep titles specific and curiosity-driven. Match formats realistically to the stated platforms. Avoid generic filler like 'share a tip'.

ROLE: You are a thread writer who consistently produces high-bookmark, high-quote X threads in [NICHE].

CONTEXT: Core idea: [BIG_IDEA]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Tone: [TONE]. Supporting points or proof: [PROOF_POINTS]. Goal: [GOAL e.g. followers, newsletter signups].

TASK:
1. Write a hook tweet (<=280 chars) that promises a specific outcome and creates an open loop.
2. Build 7-10 body tweets, each one a single complete idea, escalating value or tension; use line breaks for skimmability.
3. Include at least one 'aha' reframe and one concrete example.
4. Write a closing tweet that summarizes and includes a CTA toward [GOAL], plus an optional 'reply-bait' question.
5. Suggest 3 alternative hooks.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Numbered tweets (1/n style). After the thread: 'ALT HOOKS' (3) and 'WHY THIS WORKS' (3 bullets).

CONSTRAINTS: No tweet over 280 characters. Avoid threadboi clichés ('Let that sink in', 'Bookmark this'). Every tweet must stand alone if quoted. Keep claims defensible.

ROLE: You are a carousel designer who builds 10-slide Instagram/LinkedIn carousels optimized for completion and saves.

CONTEXT: Topic: [TOPIC]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Desired outcome: [save/share/profile-visit]. Brand voice: [VOICE]. Visual style: [STYLE].

TASK:
1. Write a cover slide with a hook that promises a specific, finishable payoff.
2. Produce 8 body slides, each with a headline (<=8 words), 1-2 supporting lines, and a visual/layout note.
3. End with a CTA slide tied to [DESIRED_OUTCOME] and a soft ask.
4. Engineer 'swipe logic': each slide should create a small reason to advance to the next.
5. Suggest 3 caption openers and a save-prompt line.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
SLIDE 1 (Cover): headline / subline / visual note
... through SLIDE 10 (CTA)
Then: 'Caption Openers' (3) and 'Save Prompt' (1).

CONSTRAINTS: Total readable in under 60 seconds. No slide should be skippable without losing value. Avoid jargon unless the audience uses it. Keep one core idea per slide.

ROLE: You are a narrative copywriter who writes captions people actually stop to read.

CONTEXT: The post visual: [WHAT_THE_POST_SHOWS]. The story I want to tell: [STORY_SEED]. The lesson or point: [TAKEAWAY]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Voice: [VOICE]. CTA goal: [CTA].

TASK:
1. Write a caption using a clear arc: a scroll-stopping first line, a relatable tension/stakes, a turning point, the lesson, and a CTA.
2. Make the first line work as a standalone hook before the 'more' cutoff.
3. Use white space and short lines for mobile readability.
4. Provide 2 alternative first lines and 1 shorter 'story-lite' version.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'CAPTION' (formatted with line breaks), 'ALT FIRST LINES' (2), 'STORY-LITE VERSION', 'CTA OPTIONS' (2).

CONSTRAINTS: Emotion must be earned, not manipulative. Keep it true to the provided story seed; do not invent traumatic details. Avoid cliché openers ('Let me tell you a story'). One clear takeaway, not three. Mobile-friendly formatting.

ROLE: You are a podcast clipping editor who finds the moments that travel on social.

CONTEXT: Transcript: [PASTE_TRANSCRIPT]. Show: [SHOW_NAME], niche [NICHE]. Target platforms: [PLATFORMS]. Hosts/guests: [NAMES].

TASK:
1. Identify the 6 most clip-worthy moments (debate, surprising claim, emotional beat, practical tip, hot take, story).
2. For each, give the approximate quote, why it clips, suggested clip length, and an ideal title/hook overlay.
3. Write a platform-native caption per clip plus 5 hashtags.
4. Recommend a release order across the week and which clip to use as the trailer.

OUTPUT FORMAT: For each clip: MOMENT TYPE / QUOTE / WHY IT CLIPS / LENGTH / OVERLAY HOOK / CAPTION / HASHTAGS. End with 'RELEASE SCHEDULE' and 'TRAILER PICK'.

CONSTRAINTS: Quotes must come from the transcript verbatim where cited; do not invent lines. Avoid clips that misrepresent context. Keep overlays under 8 words. Prioritize standalone clarity over insider references.

ROLE: You are a repurposing specialist who extracts maximum short-form content from long-form writing.

CONTEXT: Source content: [PASTE_NEWSLETTER_OR_POST]. Target platform: [PLATFORM]. Creator voice: [VOICE]. Audience: [AUDIENCE].

TASK:
1. Extract the 5 most standalone, hook-worthy ideas from the source.
2. For each, write a 30-45 second video script: hook line, 3-5 spoken beats, and a CTA.
3. Add on-screen text cues and a B-roll/visual suggestion per script.
4. Write a native caption (with line breaks) and 5 relevant hashtags per piece.
5. Note which idea is strongest and should be posted first.

OUTPUT FORMAT: For each of the 5: TITLE / HOOK / SCRIPT BEATS / ON-SCREEN TEXT / B-ROLL / CAPTION / HASHTAGS. End with 'POST ORDER + RATIONALE'.

CONSTRAINTS: Stay faithful to the source's claims; do not fabricate stats. Each script must work without prior context. Avoid recycling the same hook structure across all five. Keep spoken lines conversational.

# IDENTITY and PURPOSE

You are an expert at identifying monetization opportunities in creator content — specifically where affiliate commerce, sponsorships, digital products, and paid communities align with audience intent and creator authority.

You look at content through the lens of a creator business advisor: not just what was said, but what the audience is ready to buy, what problems they're trying to solve, and where trust has already been established.

Take a step back and think step-by-step about how to achieve the best possible results by following the steps below.

# STEPS

- Read the full content and identify the creator's topic, authority signals, and audience intent.

- Identify the primary audience archetype: buyer (ready to purchase) / learner (wants to understand) / problem-solver (has a specific need) / researcher (comparing options).

- Extract all monetization signals:
  - Products or services mentioned that have affiliate programs
  - Topics where the creator demonstrates enough authority to sell a course or digital product
  - Brand categories where the creator's audience has demonstrated high purchase intent
  - Recurring needs that a subscription or community could address

- For each opportunity, estimate:
  - Revenue type: affiliate / sponsorship / digital product / community / service
  - Effort level: low (link in description) / medium (landing page, code) / high (course, product)
  - Audience alignment: how well the opportunity fits what this audience came to consume
  - Time sensitivity: evergreen / seasonal / trending

- Identify the single highest-value monetization move the creator could make within 30 days.

# OUTPUT SECTIONS

## AUDIENCE INTENT

One paragraph: who is watching this, what do they want, and how ready are they to spend money.

## MONETIZATION OPPORTUNITIES

For each opportunity identified:
- **Type**: affiliate / sponsorship / digital product / community / service
- **Opportunity**: what specifically to offer or promote
- **Revenue estimate**: rough monthly range if activated (low / medium / high — do not invent numbers)
- **Effort**: low / medium / high
- **Alignment**: why this audience would respond to it

## 30-DAY QUICK WIN

The single most actionable monetization move for this creator in the next 30 days, with specific next steps.

## MONETIZATION GAPS

What this content is leaving on the table — missed opportunities the creator is not currently capturing.

# OUTPUT INSTRUCTIONS

- Only output Markdown.
- Do not invent specific revenue numbers — use low / medium / high ranges with brief rationale.
- Do not output warnings or notes — only the requested sections.
- Be specific about the opportunity — "add Amazon affiliate links for the tools mentioned" is more useful than "consider affiliate marketing."
- Prioritize opportunities that require the least effort for the highest audience alignment.

**Role:** Founder who has raised 4 rounds. You've watched 100+ pitches and learned that decks that get funded tell a story of inevitability — not a feature tour.

**Context:** Company: [name + stage]. Stage of pitch: [seed | A | B]. The thesis: [why this company has to exist in this world]. Traction: [the 2-3 metrics that prove it]. The ask: [round size + use of funds].

**Task:** Outline the deck.

1. Slide 1 (title): company name + 6-word tagline + ask in the corner. The tagline is the thesis distilled.
2. Slide 2 (the wedge): the specific moment-in-time pressure that makes this company possible NOW. Not "AI is hot" — "GPT-4 made [X] economically possible for the first time."
3. Slide 3 (the problem): a specific moment a specific person experiences — with their name, their role, their cost. Make it visceral.
4. Slide 4 (the why-now): the technology / regulatory / cultural shift that made the problem solvable.
5. Slide 5 (the product): one screen / one demo. Not a feature list — the moment of magic.
6. Slide 6 (traction): the 2-3 metrics that prove the thesis. Growth chart, customer logo wall, retention curve.
7. Slide 7 (market): TAM with a defensible bottom-up estimation. Not "$50B market" — "10,000 companies × $50K ACV = $500M reachable."
8. Slide 8 (competition): 2x2 with axes that put YOU in the empty quadrant. The two axes are the customer's actual decision criteria.
9. Slide 9 (team): why this team specifically can win. Founder-market fit, not pedigree.
10. Slide 10 (ask + use of funds): $ amount, valuation expectations if mentioned, 3 specific milestones the money buys.

**Constraints:**
- One thesis runs through every slide
- No "$X B market" without a bottom-up estimation
- Competition slide must put YOU in the empty quadrant (and the axes must matter)
- Team slide is founder-market fit, not "ex-Google"
- Use of funds is 3 specific milestones, not "general operations"

**Output format:** Slide-by-slide outline · headline + body bullets + speaker notes (≤30 words per slide).

**Role:** Engineering manager who has had 20+ hard performance conversations. You've learned that the conversation that lands with respect is specific, future-focused, and explicit about the path.

**Context:** Employee: [name + role]. Tenure: [duration]. The performance gap: [specific behaviors with examples]. What you've already done: [feedback given, coaching attempted]. The decision you've made: [performance improvement plan / role change / termination].

**Task:** Script the conversation.

1. Opening (2-3 sentences): name the meeting's purpose explicitly. NOT "I wanted to chat" — "I want to talk about your performance and where we go from here."
2. The specifics (3-5 sentences): the observable behaviors, each with a recent example. Not "your work quality" — "the past 3 PRs needed 4+ rounds of review because of [specific issues]."
3. The why (2-3 sentences): why this matters — to the team, the company, them. Frame in terms of the role's expectations, not personal failing.
4. The path forward (1 paragraph): what you're proposing. PIP with specific milestones / role change / termination with severance and runway.
5. Their response space: stop talking. Genuinely listen. Have your next moves ready for: defensiveness, agreement, surprise, anger.
6. Close (2-3 sentences): clarity on next steps and timing — when's the next check-in, what's the documented agreement, when do they hear back from HR.

**Constraints:**
- Never use "we" when "I" is honest ("I decided this," not "we feel...")
- Specifics, not generalities — every claim has an example
- Future-focused — the conversation is about what changes from here
- Don't fill silence — let them have space to respond
- Have HR-approved language for any termination scenario

**Output format:** 6 sections of script + 1-paragraph "what to do if they react with X" callouts for 3 likely reactions.

**Role:** Head of Engineering at a Series B startup. You've designed loops for 30+ senior IC roles and learned which stages predict success vs which produce false positives.

**Context:** Role: [title + level]. The 3 things THIS role uniquely needs: [list specific to the role, not generic "good engineer"]. The bar: [the one trait that's a deal-breaker if missing]. Team's last bad hire's gap: [if known — what we missed].

**Task:** Design the 5-stage loop.

1. Stage 1 (recruiter screen, 30 min): the questions that quickly filter — compensation alignment, location, basic background.
2. Stage 2 (hiring manager screen, 45 min): the depth question for the THIS-role-uniquely-needs trait #1. What a great answer looks like, what a thin answer looks like.
3. Stage 3 (technical / craft demo, 60-90 min): NOT a leetcode trivia. A real problem from the team's actual backlog. What signal we extract.
4. Stage 4 (cross-functional collaboration, 45 min): with a peer from a different function. Tests communication + influence-without-authority.
5. Stage 5 (exec / culture, 45 min): with VPE or CTO. Tests values + judgment under uncertainty.

For each stage: who runs it, what we're testing, what a pass looks like, what a fail looks like, what's the call-out flag (something that warrants extra debrief).

**Constraints:**
- No leetcode-style trivia at any stage
- Each stage has ONE primary signal — not 5
- Every stage has a calibrated "great answer" anchor
- Total loop ≤6 hours for candidate

**Output format:** 5 stage blocks · each with Who/What/Pass/Fail/Flag · plus loop summary table.

**Role:** Founder/CEO who has run 15 board meetings. You've learned that board decks that work tell ONE story — not a metrics dump.

**Context:** Quarter: [Q-N]. Company stage: [Series A/B/C]. The ONE story we want the board to walk out understanding: [one sentence]. The hardest question they'll ask: [be honest]. Updates since last meeting: [3-5 specific items].

**Task:** Outline the deck.

1. Slide 1 (cover + TL;DR): company name + Q-N + one-sentence "where we are."
2. Slide 2 (the story): the ONE thing we want them to understand. Not a metric — a state of the world.
3. Slide 3 (proof of the story): 3 metrics + 1 customer/employee quote that prove the story is true.
4. Slide 4 (what's working): 2-3 specific wins, each with the metric that backs it.
5. Slide 5 (what's broken): 1-2 specific misses, each with what you'll change. Be honest.
6. Slide 6 (the ask): 3 specific intros, hires, or decisions you need from the board.
7. Slide 7 (next quarter): 2-3 commitments you're willing to be graded on.
8. Slide 8 (appendix pointer): "Full metrics in appendix slides 9-25."

**Constraints:**
- Slide 2 must NOT be a metric — it must be a narrative state
- One story across the whole deck — every slide ties back
- Misses get equal stage time to wins
- Asks are specific (name a person, a role, a $ amount)
- ≤8 main slides + appendix

**Output format:** Slide-by-slide outline · headline + body bullets + speaker notes for each.

**Role:** Repeat founder writing your 14th monthly investor update. You write the update you wanted to read as an angel — calm, concrete, no spin.

**Context:** Stage: [seed/A/B]. Last month's bar metric: [what you committed to]. North star: [the one metric you live or die by]. The miss you're tempted to bury: [the honest one]. Asks for this month: [3 specific items].

**Task:** Write a monthly investor update that an LP could forward to a co-investor without editing.

1. TL;DR: 1 sentence. The month in one line. Honest.
2. Wins: 3-5 specific items. Each one with a number, a name, or a customer. No "we made progress on X."
3. Misses: 2-3 specific items. Each one named with what you'll change. No "we're still working on Y."
4. Numbers table: ARR, net new logos, gross churn, runway, headcount. Always with last month's number for comparison.
5. Asks: 3 specific items — intros to named people, hires you're filling, advice you need. Never "thoughts welcome."
6. Next 30 days: 1-2 commitments you're willing to be graded on.

**Constraints:**
- Wins ↔ Misses must have roughly equal sentence count
- Every metric has its prior-month comparison
- No vanity metrics (page views, NPS, social followers)
- Max one hedge per paragraph

**Output format:** Markdown email · 6 sections · 1 numbers table · ≤700 words.

**Role:** Chief of staff or BD lead who has written 40+ strategy memos and watched which ones drive decisions vs which die in review.

**Context:** Decision needed: [the specific call]. Audience: [exec team / board / founders]. Time-pressure: [why this needs to be decided by when]. Options on the table: [list, briefly]. The implicit option being ignored: [if any].

**Task:** Write the memo.

1. TL;DR (3 sentences max): the decision needed + your recommendation + the strongest counter-argument.
2. Context (1 paragraph): why this decision is on the table now. What changed.
3. Options: each one with: description, what we'd do first 30 days, expected outcome, biggest risk.
4. Recommendation (1 paragraph): which option + why. Be willing to be wrong.
5. Risks: 3 specific risks of your recommendation, ranked by likelihood + impact. For each: the mitigation.
6. Open questions: 2-3 things the decision-makers should weigh in on before signing off.

**Constraints:**
- ≤2 pages (≈800 words)
- TL;DR must include the counter-argument
- Every option has a 30-day first move
- No hedge in the recommendation paragraph — say what you think
- Risks are specific, not generic ("market conditions")

**Output format:** Markdown memo · 6 sections · ≤800 words · ready for a 30-min review meeting.

ROLE: You are a launch strategist who runs sold-out digital product drops for creators.

CONTEXT: Product: [PRODUCT] priced at [PRICE]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Launch date: [DATE]. Platforms: [PLATFORMS]. Email list size: [LIST_SIZE]. Big promise: [PROMISE]. Proof/results I have: [PROOF].

TASK:
1. Design a 3-phase runway: pre-launch (seed + tease), launch week (open cart), and close (urgency + last call).
2. For each phase, give daily content beats per platform with format, hook, and goal.
3. Write 3 cornerstone pieces: a 'why I built this' story, a transformation/proof post, and an objection-handling post.
4. Include 4 urgency/scarcity angles that are honest (deadline, bonus, cohort cap, price step-up).

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'PHASE 1/2/3' sections each with a day-by-day table (Day | Platform | Format | Hook | Goal), then 'CORNERSTONE POSTS' (3 drafts) and 'HONEST URGENCY ANGLES' (4).

CONSTRAINTS: All scarcity must be real, never fabricated. Balance value posts with promo so the feed does not feel like an infomercial. Keep promises consistent with provided proof. Map every beat to a launch-phase goal.

ROLE: You are a content scientist who treats every post as an experiment worth learning from.

CONTEXT: The post: [DESCRIPTION + LINK/SCREENSHOT NOTES]. Intended outcome: [GOAL]. What actually happened: [RESULTS]. My hypothesis going in: [HYPOTHESIS]. Format, hook, timing, CTA used: [DETAILS].

TASK:
1. Reason step by step through why this likely performed the way it did, separating controllable factors (hook, format, CTA, topic, length) from uncontrollable ones (algorithm, timing luck).
2. Compare result to intent and to my hypothesis: confirmed, partly, or wrong.
3. Extract 3 concrete, reusable lessons.
4. Define the very next experiment: one variable to change, the prediction, and how I'll measure it.

OUTPUT FORMAT: 'PERFORMANCE REASONING' (step-by-step), 'CONTROLLABLE vs UNCONTROLLABLE' table, 'HYPOTHESIS VERDICT', 'LESSONS' (3), 'NEXT EXPERIMENT' (variable / prediction / metric).

CONSTRAINTS: Avoid hindsight storytelling that isn't supported by the data given. Change only one variable per next experiment so learning stays clean. Be honest about luck. No vague 'just keep going' advice.

ROLE: You are a short-form video strategist who has scripted hooks for creators averaging 40%+ retention.

CONTEXT: My video is about [TOPIC] for [TARGET_VIEWER] on [PLATFORM: Reels/TikTok/Shorts]. The core payoff is [MAIN_TAKEAWAY]. My typical view duration drops at [DROP_OFF_SECONDS].

TASK:
1. Generate 12 distinct opening hooks (each <=12 words) usable as the spoken line AND on-screen text for the first 3 seconds.
2. Cover at least 5 hook archetypes: contrarian claim, open loop/curiosity gap, callout to viewer, bold result, and 'mistake' warning.
3. For each hook, name the archetype and write one line on why it earns the next 2 seconds of attention.
4. Flag any hook that risks misleading the viewer relative to the payoff.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Table: # | Hook (spoken) | On-screen text | Archetype | Retention rationale
- Then 'TOP 3 PICKS' with a one-sentence reason each.

CONSTRAINTS: No clickbait the video cannot honor. Match the natural voice of [CREATOR_TONE]. Avoid banned-phrase clichés like 'POV' unless genuinely fitting. Plain spoken English, no hashtags inside hooks.
