Plan how to promote a piece of content after I publish it
A distribution plan with channels, timing, outreach, and ready-to-use copy for one important piece.
The prompt
Build a distribution plan for one piece of content I'm publishing.
The piece: [TITLE, FORMAT, LINK OR SUMMARY]
Audience: [WHO]
Goal: [traffic / sign-ups / backlinks / sales conversations / brand reach]
Owned channels I have: [newsletter size, social accounts and follower counts, blog, community]
Earned opportunities: [people or brands mentioned, partners, communities, journalists, newsletters]
Paid budget (if any): [AMOUNT or "none"]
Time I can spend: [e.g. "3 hours over two weeks"]
Plan:
1. Launch day: what goes out where, in what order.
2. Weeks 1-4: re-shares with new angles (stat, quote, story, question), not the same post repeated.
3. Outreach: who to tell (people quoted, mentioned, or likely to link), with a short personal message template.
4. Communities: where it's genuinely useful, respecting each community's self-promotion rules.
5. Internal: sales, support, and leadership enablement (one-line summary they can share).
6. Paid boost: whether it's worth it and on which channel.
7. What to measure and when to judge success.
Return a dated schedule table: | Day | Channel | Asset or message | Owner | Metric | plus the draft copy for each item.
Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
