Promote an event to sell tickets and fill the room
A promotion plan for an expo, conference, or public event: audience segments, campaign timeline, channel content, and ticket offers.
The prompt
Help me promote an event so we sell tickets and fill the venue.

Date, venue, and capacity: [DETAILS]
Ticket types and prices: [free / paid tiers / exhibitor packages]
Attendance goal and past numbers: [TARGETS, last year's results if any]
What attendees get: [speakers, exhibitors, workshops, demos, entertainment]
Channels and budget: [email list size, social accounts, partners, ad budget]
Weeks until the event: [NUMBER]
Deliver:
1. Audience segments: 3-5 groups most likely to attend, with what motivates each and the message that will move them.
2. Campaign timeline working back from event day: announcement, early-bird, speaker or exhibitor reveals, mid-campaign push, last-chance, and day-of. Include the dates for each phase.
3. Ticket offers: early-bird, group or bring-a-friend, partner discount codes, and urgency that is honest (real deadlines and capacity only).
4. Content plan: topic ideas and formats (short videos, behind-the-scenes, speaker and exhibitor spotlights, how-to posts tied to the event theme), keeping one voice across channels.
5. Partner and exhibitor promotion: a ready-made toolkit with copy and graphics they can share.
6. Email sequence: subject lines and key messages for each send.
7. Engagement ideas: contests, giveaways, and interactive posts, checking the platform rules and local laws for contests.
8. Tracking: a weekly dashboard of ticket sales by channel and code, and what to change if sales lag.

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.
