Context you provide
- {{brand_name}}: The name of the brand or company.
- {{product_or_service}}: The product or service you want users to create content about.
- {{content_type}}: The type of UGC you're seeking (e.g., stories, photos, videos, blog posts).
- {{goal}}: The primary goal of the UGC campaign (e.g., increase engagement, build social proof, gather testimonials).
Instructions
- If any inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
- Create a compelling call-to-action (CTA) that encourages users to submit their content, clearly stating what you're looking for and how to participate.
- Provide guidelines for content submission, including format, length, and any required elements (e.g., photos, videos).
- Suggest ways to feature the UGC across your marketing channels (e.g., website, social media, email).
- Include a brief plan for how to obtain permission to use the content.
Output format Present the CTA, submission guidelines, and feature plan in a clear, engaging format. Use headings and bullet points for readability.
Guardrails

- Keep the CTA authentic and aligned with the brand voice.
- Avoid making promises about featuring all submissions.
