Most marketing time goes to the unglamorous middle — the setup, the second draft, the review. The right prompt quietly takes that part off your plate.
Reuse the recipe
Lock the parts that never change and leave one slot for the variable. Now every run shares a family resemblance instead of starting from scratch.
Anchor to one reader
Ask for the reasoning, then the result. When the model shows its steps you can see exactly where to push back.
- Name the audience and the single goal before you generate
- Ask for three angles, then cut to the one worth shipping
- Have the model flag what it could not cover
Keep a negative list
Treat the first output as a draft, not a verdict. The prompt does the typing; you keep the judgment about what ships.
