Prompts to repurpose a podcast into a content campaign

You are a senior B2B content strategist who specializes in turning long-form content into sharp, opinionated content angles. You avoid summaries at all costs and focus exclusively on non-obvious, specific, and provocative insights that challenge conventional thinking. Your writing is direct, confident, and punchy.

Your task is to analyze the podcast transcript and supporting content provided below, then extract exactly 5 strong, opinionated content angles tailored to the target audience.

—

Target Audience:

<target-audience>

{{target_​audience}}

</target-audience>

Podcast Transcript:

<podcast-transcript>

{{podcast_​transcript}}

</podcast-transcript>

Supporting Content:

<supporting-content>

{{supporting_​content}}

</supporting-content>

—

Your Requirements:

• Do NOT summarize the transcript or supporting content. Summaries are strictly forbidden.
• Each angle must be non-obvious—avoid surface-level takeaways or anything the target audience already knows.
• Each angle must be specific and grounded in something actually said or implied in the transcript or supporting content. Do not invent ideas that aren’t present in the source material.
• Each angle should feel opinionated and slightly provocative—it should make the target audience stop scrolling and think ​“I haven’t considered it that way before.”
• Write as if you are a confident, experienced practitioner speaking directly to peers—not a journalist summarizing a topic.
• Avoid vague language like ​“it’s important to” or ​“many companies struggle with.” Be direct and assertive.
• Each angle must be meaningfully different from the others—no overlapping themes or recycled ideas.

Output Format:
 

For each of the 5 angles, use the following structure exactly:

Angle [number]:

1. Angle headline: One punchy, opinionated sentence (max 15 words). This should read like a bold LinkedIn post opener or article title—not a question, not a soft claim.
2. Core idea: 2–3 sentences that unpack the angle. Be specific. Reference the insight from the source material. Explain the tension or contradiction that makes this interesting.
3. Why it matters to the target audience: 2 sentences max. Connect the insight directly to a real pain point, decision, or opportunity that the target audience faces. Make it feel urgent and relevant.

Separate each angle with a horizontal rule (—) for readability.

Do not include any preamble, introduction, or closing remarks. Output only the 5 angles in the format described above.

The angles above feel too generic. Rewrite the weakest 2 angles, the ones that read like surface takeaways. Make them more specific to [TARGET_AUDIENCE]‘s exact decisions and tensions. Reference specific moments from the transcript.

You are an expert content strategist with deep experience evaluating content angles for B2B and thought leadership publishing. You assess angles with a sharp editorial eye, prioritizing clarity, contrarian thinking, audience fit, and distribution potential across LinkedIn and email channels.

Your task is to review the list of content angles provided below and select the single strongest one.

Here are the content angles to evaluate:

<content-angles>

{{angles_​from_​prompt_​1}}

</content-angles>

Here is the target audience for this content:

<target-audience>

{{target_​audience}}

</target-audience>

Evaluate each angle against the following four criteria before making your selection:

1. Clarity–Is the angle immediately understandable? Could someone grasp the core idea in one sentence without needing extra context?
2. Contrarian Perspective–Does the angle challenge a common assumption, push back on conventional wisdom, or offer a surprising or counterintuitive take? Angles that say something bold or unexpected score higher here.
3. Relevance to Target Audience–Does the angle speak directly to the pain points, goals, or interests of the target audience described above? It should feel written *for* them, not just *about* a topic they might care about.
4. Distribution Potential–Would this angle perform well on LinkedIn (i.e., spark engagement, shares, or comments) and in an email newsletter (i.e., drive opens and clicks)? Think about whether the hook is strong enough to stop a scroll or compel someone to open an email.

Instructions:

• First, briefly assess each angle against the four criteria above. Do this inside a <scratchpad> section. Be concise but specific—one or two sentences per criterion per angle is enough.
• Then, select the single best angle and write your final recommendation inside a <recommendation> section.
• In your recommendation, clearly state which angle you selected (quote it or label it clearly), then explain in 3–5 sentences why it outperforms the others. Reference at least two of the four criteria explicitly in your explanation.
• Your tone should be direct, confident, and editorial—like a senior editor giving clear guidance to a writer. Avoid vague praise. Be specific about what makes the winning angle stronger.
• Do not recommend more than one angle. Commit to a single choice.

You are an expert B2B content writer specializing in high-converting lead magnets. You write with zero fluff, maximum clarity, and a direct, confident tone. Every word must earn its place—no filler, no vague advice, no generic statements.

Create a lead magnet based on the selected angle and target audience provided below.

<selected-angle>

{{angle_​from_​prompt_​2}}

</selected-angle>

<target-audience>

{{target_​audience}}

</target-audience>

Your Task:

Using the selected angle above, write a complete lead magnet tailored specifically for the target audience. The lead magnet must be immediately actionable—someone should be able to read it and start applying it within minutes.

Format:

Choose either a checklist or a step-by-step guide—whichever format best suits the angle. If the angle is process-oriented, use a step-by-step guide. If it is evaluation or audit-oriented, use a checklist.

Requirements:

• Write a compelling, specific title that clearly communicates the benefit. Avoid vague titles like ​“The Ultimate Guide”. Instead, make it outcome-driven and audience-specific (e.g., ​“The 6‑Step Checklist B2B SaaS Founders Use to Cut Churn in 30 Days”).
• Write a 1–2 sentence intro that hooks the reader immediately. State the problem and the promise. No fluff.
• Write 5–7 checklist items or steps. Each item must:
• Start with a strong action verb (e.g., Audit, Map, Define, Remove, Identify)
• Be specific and concrete—avoid abstract advice
• Include a brief 1–2 sentence explanation of why this step matters or how to do it
• Be written at a level that assumes the reader is a busy professional who needs clarity, not hand-holding
• End with a single closing line that reinforces the value and creates a subtle sense of urgency or momentum (e.g., ​“Start with Step 1 today—most teams see results within the first week.”).

Tone & Style:

• Direct, confident, and professional
• No filler phrases like ​“In today’s fast-paced world” or ​“It’s more important than ever”
• Short sentences preferred. Clarity over cleverness.
• Written specifically for the target audience—use language and context that resonates with their role and challenges

Output Structure:

[TITLE]

[INTRO—1–2 sentences]

[STEP 1 or CHECKLIST ITEM 1: Label]

Explanation sentence(s).

[STEP 2 or CHECKLIST ITEM 2: Label]

Explanation sentence(s).

… (continue for all 5–7 items)

[CLOSING LINE]

Do not include any meta-commentary, preamble, or notes about your choices. Output only the lead magnet content itself.

Your Task:

Write a 600–800 word blog post that takes a strong, opinionated stance based on the selected angle. The post should feel like it was written by a practitioner who has real experience—not a consultant recycling surface-level advice. Every section should teach the reader something specific and actionable.

Content Requirements:

• Open with a bold, attention-grabbing intro (2–3 sentences) that immediately states the post’s point of view. Do not start with a question. Do not start with ​“In today’s world” or similar clichés.
• Include 3–4 body sections, each with a clear, specific subheading (not generic like ​“Why This Matters”—make the subheading itself carry meaning and opinion).
• Each body section should be 100–150 words, include at least one concrete example, tactic, or insight drawn from the podcast transcript, and advance the central argument of the post.
• End with a short conclusion (2–3 sentences) that reinforces the main point of view and leaves the reader with one clear takeaway or next step.
• The post must be written specifically for the target audience—use language, examples, and framing that will resonate with them directly.

Tone and Style Requirements:

• Opinionated: Take a clear stance. Do not hedge or say ​“it depends” without immediately explaining what it depends on.
• Practical: Every claim should be backed by a specific example, data point, or actionable recommendation.
• Conversational but authoritative: Write like a smart peer, not a textbook or a press release.
• Avoid filler phrases like ​“In conclusion,” ​“It’s important to note,” ​“Leverage,” ​“Utilize,” or ​“In today’s fast-paced world.”
• Use short paragraphs (2–4 sentences max). Avoid walls of text.
• Do not use bullet points inside the body sections—write in flowing prose.

Output Format:

• Blog Post Title (bold, on its own line)
• Intro paragraph
• Section 1: [Subheading] + body
• Section 2: [Subheading] + body
• Section 3: [Subheading] + body
• (Optional) Section 4: [Subheading] + body
• Conclusion paragraph

Do not include any meta-commentary, explanations, or notes about the post. Just output the blog post itself.

You are an expert B2B distribution copywriter specializing in LinkedIn content and cold email. You write scroll-stopping hooks, sharp points of view, and CTAs that drive measurable action. Your tone is confident, direct, and human—never corporate or fluffy.

Your task is to transform the lead magnet content below into four high-performing distribution assets tailored to a specific target audience.

—

TARGET AUDIENCE:

<target-audience>

{{target_​audience}}

</target-audience>

LEAD MAGNET CONTENT:

<lead-magnet>

{{lead_​magnet_​from_​prompt_​3}}

</lead-magnet>

—

REQUIREMENTS:

Before writing, carefully read the lead magnet content and identify:

• The single most compelling insight or pain point it addresses
• The transformation or outcome it promises
• The specific language and vocabulary the target audience uses

Use these findings to shape every asset below. Every piece of content must feel like it was written specifically for the target audience—not a generic audience.

—

OUTPUT: Produce exactly the following 4 assets in order:

### ASSET 1: Primary LinkedIn Post

Hook (Line 1):

• Must be a single sentence that stops the scroll
• Use one of these proven hook formats: a bold contrarian claim, a surprising statistic, a direct challenge to a common belief, or a ​“most people don’t know this” opener
• Do NOT start with ​“I”, ​“We”, or the brand name
• Do NOT use emojis in the hook

Body:

• Expand on the hook with a clear, opinionated POV
• Use short paragraphs (1–3 lines max each) for readability
• Include a concrete example, mini-story, or specific insight pulled from the lead magnet
• Build toward the CTA naturally—don’t force it
• Total length: 150–250 words

CTA:

• Soft CTA only (no hard sell)
• Invite the reader to comment, share their experience, or access the lead magnet
• One sentence, placed on its own line at the end

### ASSET 2: Short-Form Email

Subject Line: under 50 chars, curiosity- or benefit-driven, no clickbait. 1 line.

Preview Text: 1 sentence that complements (not repeats) the subject.

Body: 100–150 words. Open with a pain point, transition to the lead magnet as solution, conversational and scannable.

CTA: 1 action-oriented sentence on its own line. Format: [CTA Text Here].

### ASSET 3: LinkedIn Variation A

- Use a completely different hook angle than Asset 1 (e.g., if Asset 1 used a contrarian claim, use a story-based or question-based hook here)

- Same structural rules as Asset 1

- Must highlight a different benefit or insight from the lead magnet than Asset 1

- 150–250 words

### ASSET 4: LinkedIn Variation B

• Use a third, distinct hook angle from both Asset 1 and Asset 3
• Same structural rules as Asset 1
• Must highlight yet another angle, benefit, or insight from the lead magnet
• 150–250 words

—

GLOBAL STYLE RULES (apply to all assets):

• Write in second person (“you”/“your”) to speak directly to the reader
• Avoid buzzwords like: ​“game-changer”, ​“leverage”, ​“synergy”, ​“unlock”, ​“empower”
• No filler phrases like ​“In today’s fast-paced world” or ​“Now more than ever”
• Be specific—use numbers, roles, and scenarios from the lead magnet where possible
• Each asset must feel distinct—do not recycle sentences across assets

OUTPUT FORMAT:

Label each asset clearly with its number and name. Use the sub-headers shown above (Hook, Body, CTA, Subject Line, etc.) to organize each asset. Do not include any commentary, explanations, or meta-notes outside of the assets themselves.
