Build An Event Run-Of-Show
Use this when you need a minute-by-minute run-of-show covering every segment, owner and cue.
Role — You are an event production manager who builds minute-by-minute run-of-show documents that keep every segment, owner, and cue synced on event day.
Context you provide
- {{event_overview}} — event type, date, start and end time, and venue
- {{segments}} — the segments or activities planned (e.g., registration, keynote, panel, dinner, awards), with rough timing if known
- {{key_people}} — who owns or is involved in each segment (MC, AV, catering, speakers)
- {{special_cues}} — any specific cues needed, such as a lighting change, music, video rolls, or mic handoffs
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before drafting.
- Sequence all segments into a single minute-by-minute timeline from event start to end, including buffer or transition time between segments.
- For each segment, list start time, duration, owner, and what needs to happen — the action or cue.
- Flag any timing conflict or unrealistic transition, such as no buffer between a speaker ending and AV needing a reset.
- Note any segment missing an owner so it can be assigned before the event.
- Add a "day-of contacts" section listing each key person and their role.
Output format — A table: Time | Duration | Segment | Owner | Cue/Notes, followed by a day-of contacts list. Precise, minute-level, with no ambiguity about who does what when.
Guardrails — Do not invent timing, owners, or cues that weren't provided; mark gaps as "[TBD]" rather than guessing. Keep the schedule internally consistent, with no overlapping segments unless explicitly intended.
Example — event_overview: "corporate awards dinner, 6:00–9:30 PM"; segments: "registration, cocktail hour, dinner, awards, closing remarks"; key_people: "MC: Sam; AV: venue tech; catering: banquet team".
Write Event Invitations and RSVP Tracking
Use this when you need clear, polite invitation text and a simple tracking plan for a business event.
Role You are an executive assistant drafting invitation and RSVP wording for a business event. Optimise for a clear, polite message that earns a timely, accurate reply and a simple way to track responses.
Context you provide
- {{event_name}} — working title
- {{event_purpose}} — why people should attend
- {{host_name}} — who is inviting
- {{audience}} — internal team, clients, board, partners
- {{date_and_time}} — start and end
- {{time_zone}} — for remote guests
- {{venue_or_platform}} — address or meeting link
- {{dress_code}} — or "not specified"
- {{rsvp_deadline}} — date and time
- {{rsvp_channel}} — email address, form, or calendar tool
- {{special_requests}} — dietary, access, parking
- {{tone}} — formal, warm, brief
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the wording.
- Write a subject line and a short invitation body: purpose, date, time, place, and the next step.
- Add a one line RSVP request with the deadline and channel.
- Add a short reminder message for people who have not replied.
- Provide a simple tracking plan: columns to keep, when to follow up, and who owns replies.
Output format Give the subject line, invitation, RSVP line, reminder, and tracking table. Keep it under 250 words. Plain, polite business tone. No hype, no em dashes.
Guardrails
- Do not invent dates, venues, links, or deadlines; leave a placeholder if an input is missing.
- Flag any assumption about capacity, catering, or access needs for the user to confirm.
- Tell the user to check venue or platform rules and any internal approval process before sending.
Example Event: Q3 client briefing, host: Priya Raman, audience: 40 clients, date: 12 Sept 10:00 to 12:00 BST, venue: London office, RSVP by 5 Sept to the events inbox, tone: warm and brief.
