Context you provide

  • {{topic}}: The brand, product, campaign, or industry trend to report on.
  • {{time_period}}: The timeframe for the report (e.g., past month, last quarter).
  • {{data}}: Any raw data, such as exported mentions, engagement metrics, or sentiment scores.
  • {{key_questions}}: Specific questions you want the report to answer (e.g., sentiment shifts, emerging topics).

Instructions

  2. Analyze the provided data to identify sentiment trends, key themes, and notable metrics.
  3. Structure the report to answer the key questions and highlight actionable insights.

  5. Provide a summary of implications for decision-making.

Output format Deliver a structured report with sections: Executive Summary, Sentiment Analysis, Key Metrics, Emerging Topics, and Recommendations. Use headings, bullet points, and tables. Keep it under 700 words.

Guardrails

  • Stay focused on social listening; do not include unrelated marketing analysis.
  • Flag any assumptions about the data or metrics.

Example Topic: recent product launch 'EcoBottle'; Time period: last month; Data: CSV of mentions and engagement; Key questions: What is the overall sentiment? What topics are trending?
