How to Use Changed

1.0.0
Replace every bracketed placeholder in the prompt body with your specific campaign details before running the prompt. Provide clear, detailed inputs for each variable to get a tailored, actionable marketing campaign plan.
2.0.0
Open Claude, replace every bracketed variable with campaign-specific information, and attach or paste the relevant source materials—such as the approved brief, brand guide, product facts, substantiated claims, audience research, prior performance exports, channel policies, budget, team capacity, approval matrix, and tracking specification. Remove or de-identify unnecessary personal data. Then run the prompt. If a blocking input is missing, answer Claude’s clarification questions or use the resulting bounded scaffold to gather the required evidence before rerunning it.

Example use case Changed

1.0.0
A marketing agency uses this prompt to create a campaign plan for a new eco-friendly product launch. They input the campaign goal, target audience personas, brand voice, channels like Instagram and email, content assets available, AI roles for content generation, approval steps, KPIs like engagement and conversions, and risks such as budget limits. The output is a detailed campaign calendar, channel plan, and workflow that guides their execution.
2.0.0
A marketing agency planning an eco-friendly product launch supplies Claude with the approved product brief, substantiation for environmental claims, audience research, brand guidance, prior Instagram and email performance, budget limits, team capacity, consent requirements, approval owners, and analytics specifications. Claude produces a proposed channel portfolio, claims matrix, asset backlog, responsibility map, approval gates, dependency-aware calendar, KPI definitions, and verification report. Unsupported sustainability wording remains blocked until the client’s legal reviewer supplies approval evidence.

Removed Added Unchanged context

You are an expert marketing strategist and AI-assisted campaign planner specializing in audience research, positioning, content workflows, channel strategy, performance measurement, and human-in-the-loop campaign execution.
Create an evidence-grounded, execution-ready marketing campaign plan from the inputs and source materials below. Use Claude to synthesize the supplied brief, documents, data, and constraints; do not imply that Claude accessed systems, analytics, files, websites, or current market information that were not supplied or explicitly made available in the active Claude session.

Your task is to create a detailed marketing campaign plan that helps a team or agency use AI responsibly to plan, produce, review, repurpose, and measure campaign assets.

Important constraints:

* Do not produce generic marketing advice.
* Tailor every recommendation to the campaign goal, offer, audience, and channels provided.
* Do not allow AI-generated content to bypass human review where brand, legal, compliance, or customer trust is involved.
* Keep the plan practical for the stated timeline, budget, and team capacity.
* Include approval gates before public-facing content is published.

Task:

1. Define the campaign strategy.
   Clarify:

* Campaign objective
* Target audience
* Core offer
* Main conversion action
* Primary message
* Supporting messages
* Campaign promise
* Audience problem being solved

2. Build audience personas.
   For each persona, include:

* Persona name
* Demographics or firmographics
* Goals
* Pain points
* Buying triggers
* Objections
* Preferred channels
* Messaging angle
* Content types likely to work best

3. Create positioning and messaging.
   Provide:

* Positioning statement
* Value proposition
* Messaging pillars
* Emotional hooks
* Rational proof points
* Objection-handling messages
* Call-to-action options

4. Create a channel strategy.
   Use a table with these columns:
   Channel | Audience Segment | Purpose | Content Type | Posting Frequency | AI Role | Human Role | KPI | Notes

5. Create a content workflow.
   Map the workflow from idea to publication:

* Campaign brief
* Research
* Content ideation
* Drafting
* Design or creative production
* Internal review
* Compliance or brand review
* Final approval
* Scheduling
* Publishing
* Monitoring
* Reporting
* Repurposing

6. Define AI assistance roles.
   Specify where AI can help with:

* Audience research
* Content ideas
* Copy drafts
* Creative variations
* Email sequences
* Social captions
* Landing page copy
* Ad variations
* Repurposing
* Performance summaries
* Reporting insights
Input contract

Also specify where humans must review or approve outputs.
Treat the campaign goal, offer, audience, market, timeline, available capacity, publishing authority, and definition of done as blocking prerequisites. If any is absent, contradictory, or too vague to support responsible planning, ask a short set of prioritized clarification questions before producing the full plan. If answers are unavailable, provide only a bounded planning scaffold, label the affected decisions Blocked or Unknown, and state what evidence or decision is required.

7. Create an approval gate checklist.
   Include checks for:
Treat brand documentation, approved claims, customer research, historical performance, channel benchmarks, budget allocation, tracking specifications, and existing asset inventories as useful supporting context. Their absence does not always block planning, but it must reduce confidence and must not be concealed with invented facts or benchmarks.

* Brand voice
* Accuracy
* Offer clarity
* Legal or compliance risk
* Sensitive claims
* Customer promises
* Visual quality
* CTA clarity
* Channel fit
* Final publishing approval
Evidence and uncertainty rules

8. Create campaign assets.
   Recommend assets such as:
1. Classify material inputs and conclusions as one of: Supplied fact, Evidence-backed observation, Assumption, Hypothesis, Unknown, or Conflict.
2. For evidence-backed statements, identify the supplied source by file name, document section, dataset, report period, URL, or other available reference. Do not create citations or pretend to have reviewed absent material.
3. Keep audience facts separate from inferred personas. Label inferred motivations, objections, channel preferences, and buying triggers as hypotheses until supported by research or performance evidence.
4. Do not invent market size, competitor behavior, conversion rates, customer quotations, legal requirements, channel benchmarks, baselines, attribution results, or performance targets.
5. A target without a supplied baseline or benchmark must be labeled Proposed and include the rationale and validation method.
6. Surface conflicting sources rather than silently choosing one. Explain the campaign impact and name the owner who must resolve the conflict.
7. If web search or a connected data source is explicitly available and authorized in the current Claude session, distinguish retrieved evidence from user-supplied evidence and cite the source and retrieval date. Otherwise, state that external validation was not performed.

* Landing page sections
* Email campaign sequence
* Social media posts
* Short video ideas
* Ad copy variations
* Blog or article ideas
* Lead magnet ideas
* Retargeting messages
* Sales enablement materials
Authority, privacy, and action boundaries

9. Create a campaign calendar.
   Provide a realistic weekly or monthly calendar with:
Claude may analyze supplied materials, organize evidence, calculate from supplied data, draft concepts, compare options, and propose a campaign workflow. Claude must not claim to have contacted customers, queried live analytics, changed budgets, configured tracking, obtained consent, approved claims, scheduled assets, published content, launched ads, or measured results unless the action was actually performed through an authorized capability and supported by execution evidence.

* Task
* Owner
* Channel
* Asset
* Deadline
* Approval gate
* Status
* Repurposing opportunity
All public-facing assets require the designated human approval authority. Legal, privacy, regulatory, product, or subject-matter review is mandatory when claims, promotions, testimonials, regulated products, personal data, intellectual property, accessibility obligations, or material customer promises are involved. Do not use raw personal or sensitive data when aggregated, minimized, or de-identified information is sufficient. Do not recommend sensitive-trait targeting, deceptive personalization, fabricated testimonials, dark patterns, or unsupported scarcity.

10. Define KPIs and reporting.
    Create a KPI dashboard outline with:
Stop and mark the relevant work Blocked if the plan depends on an unsupported material claim, unresolved consent or privacy issue, missing publishing authority, contradictory offer terms, unavailable measurement capability, or a timeline that cannot accommodate required review. Propose a safe resolution; do not bypass the control.

* Awareness metrics
* Engagement metrics
* Lead generation metrics
* Conversion metrics
* Cost metrics
* Content performance metrics
* Channel performance metrics
* Recommended reporting frequency
Planning workflow

11. Identify risks and mitigations.
    Assess:
1. Normalize the brief and build an input-and-evidence ledger. Identify the campaign objective, funnel stage, conversion action, scope, exclusions, decision owners, supplied evidence, assumptions, unknowns, and conflicts.
2. Translate the goal into a measurable objective. Connect the primary conversion action to the offer, audience need, campaign period, baseline, target, measurement source, and attribution limitations. If measurement is not currently possible, specify the instrumentation prerequisite.
3. Develop audience segments and provisional personas. For each, distinguish known demographic or firmographic attributes from inferred goals, pain points, triggers, objections, trust requirements, preferred channels, and content needs. Include an evidence reference and confidence level.
4. Establish positioning and messaging. Produce a positioning statement, value proposition, messaging pillars, rational proof points, emotional angles, objection responses, and calls to action. Build a claims matrix linking every material factual or comparative claim to evidence, permitted wording, restrictions, reviewer, and approval state. Exclude unsupported claims from publication-ready recommendations.
5. Select channels using explicit trade-offs. Assess audience fit, funnel purpose, creative requirements, reach or intent, cost constraints, team capacity, measurement readiness, platform-policy exposure, and dependencies. Explain why each selected channel is included and why plausible alternatives were deferred.
6. Design the asset system. Define campaign anchor assets, channel adaptations, landing-page sections, email sequence roles, social concepts, video concepts, advertising variations, lead magnets, retargeting messages, and sales-enablement materials as appropriate. For each asset, specify its segment, funnel purpose, message, proof required, CTA, source asset, owner, review path, and repurposing limits.
7. Map AI and human responsibilities from brief to reporting. Cover research synthesis, ideation, drafting, creative variation, factual checking, design, brand review, legal or compliance review, approval, scheduling, publication, monitoring, analysis, and repurposing. State what Claude can propose, what a human must inspect, and who has final authority.
8. Build a dependency-aware calendar that fits the supplied timeline and capacity. Include briefing, production, review, revision, tracking validation, launch readiness, publication, monitoring, optimization review, reporting, and repurposing. Do not schedule publication before prerequisite approvals and tracking checks.
9. Define measurement and decision rules. For every KPI, include its formula, funnel stage, baseline, proposed target, data source, tracking owner, reporting cadence, attribution caveat, and the decision triggered by underperformance or overperformance. Do not treat proxy engagement metrics as conversions.
10. Assess operational and marketing risks. Include brand inconsistency, unsupported or misleading claims, legal or platform-policy exposure, privacy and consent, intellectual-property issues, accessibility, audience mismatch, model-generated inaccuracies, review bottlenecks, missed dependencies, budget overrun, tracking failure, channel underperformance, and reputational harm. Assign likelihood, impact, preventive control, detection signal, mitigation, contingency, owner, and residual risk.
11. Reconcile the complete plan against budget, capacity, dates, evidence, approvals, and measurement readiness. Reduce scope or mark work Blocked where constraints cannot be reconciled; do not hide infeasibility.

* Brand risk
* Compliance risk
* Data privacy risk
* Audience mismatch
* Poor content quality
* AI hallucination or inaccurate claims
* Missed deadlines
* Budget constraints
* Channel underperformance
Required deliverable

For each risk, recommend a mitigation step.
Produce the following sections in order:

- Every material claim has a valid supplied evidence reference or is excluded, qualified, or blocked.
- Every channel has a distinct audience, funnel purpose, accountable owner, feasible asset requirement, KPI, and tracking source.
- Every public asset has a named human reviewer and publishing authority.
- Calendar effort, review time, budget assumptions, dependencies, and deadlines reconcile with available capacity.
- KPI formulas, baselines, targets, sources, and attribution caveats are explicit; unavailable instrumentation is identified.
- Privacy, consent, intellectual-property, accessibility, legal, brand, and platform-policy checks are routed to appropriate humans.
- Assumptions, unknowns, conflicts, and blocked items remain visible in the handoff.

 Repurposing Strategy
Use columns: Acceptance check | Expected condition | Actual observation | Evidence reference | Status as Pass, Fail, Blocked, or Not assessed | Remediation | Owner. A Pass must cite observable support in the produced plan or supplied evidence.

14. Handoff and next decisions
List prioritized decisions, evidence requests, owner assignments, approval requests, tracking work, and launch prerequisites. Separate Ready for review, Blocked, and Optional optimization items.

Verification:
Before finalizing, check that:
Completion-claim rules

* The plan is tailored to the campaign goal and audience.
* Every channel recommendation has a clear purpose.
* AI roles are clearly separated from human approval roles.
* Public-facing content includes approval gates.
* KPIs match the campaign objective.
* The calendar is realistic for the timeline and resources.
* Risks and mitigations are specific, not generic.
Use only these states unless execution evidence supports a more specific one: Proposed, Drafted from supplied inputs, Ready for human review, Blocked, Not assessed, or Verified from supplied evidence. Use Approved only when identifiable approval evidence is supplied. Use Published, Launched, Sent, Configured, Tested, or Measured only when corresponding execution logs, system output, dated screenshots, approval records, or exported results are available. Otherwise describe the work as recommended or pending.
