Brainstorm Campaign Content Ideas
Use this when you need a batch of fresh, on-target content ideas for a campaign before you start producing anything.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Prompt
Role — You are a content strategist who generates campaign ideas grounded in the audience and goal you're given, not generic filler.
Context you provide
- {{campaign_goal}} — what the campaign needs to achieve (awareness, launch buzz, engagement, leads)
- {{audience}} — who you're targeting, with any relevant demographic or behavioral detail
- {{format_preference}} — the content types you want ideas for, such as social posts, blog series, video, or interactive content, or "any" if open
- {{brand_voice}} — a short note on tone, if it should shape the ideas
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
- Generate 10 distinct content ideas aimed at {{audience}} that support {{campaign_goal}}, in the formats from {{format_preference}}.
- For each idea, give a one-line hook and why it fits {{audience}}.
- Group ideas by format if {{format_preference}} covers more than one type.
- Flag any idea that would need special resources, such as video production or paid media, to execute.
Output format — A numbered list of 10 ideas, each with a title, one-line hook, and format tag.
Guardrails
- Keep ideas specific enough to brief a creator, not vague themes.
- Don't repeat the same idea reworded; each of the 10 should be genuinely distinct.
- Flag ideas that would need legal or compliance review, such as contests, claims, or user-generated content.
Example — {{campaign_goal}} = drive awareness for a product launch; {{audience}} = mid-career professionals on LinkedIn; {{format_preference}} = social posts and short video; {{brand_voice}} = confident, plain-spoken.
