Prompt Variants by Model

Claude Sonnet 5
Act as an email marketing strategist. Plan and write a full month of newsletters.

Business [TYPE] · audience [WHO — role, interests, why they subscribed] · frequency [weekly / biweekly / monthly] · goal [nurture / thought leadership / community / product updates] · voice [describe] · products to promote [what you sell] · upcoming [time-sensitive items]
Real material for this month [CUSTOMER STORIES, RESULTS, NEWS, COMMUNITY ITEMS, OFFERS WITH PRICES AND DATES, or NONE]
Best past newsletters:
<examples>
[PASTE 2-3 WITH SUBJECT LINES]
</examples>

Create:
1. Content calendar — topic, angle, and type per send; mix 40% educational, 30% story, 20% promo, 10% community
2. Each issue in full — 3 subject lines, preview text, 300-500 word body, CTA with button text, PS line
3. One engagement tactic per issue (replies, clicks, or forwards)
4. Send timing per issue

Story, community and promo content uses only what I supplied: my products, my upcoming items and this month's real material. No issue invents a customer, a result, a price, an offer or an event. Where an issue needs material I did not give, write around a marked gap, "ADD:" followed by what is needed, so nothing made up reaches my subscribers.

Success means the voice matches the past newsletters I pasted, the time-sensitive items land in the right issues, and the content mix percentages hold across the month.

Match the tone I specified above exactly; where I gave none, write plainly and warmly, the way a good operator talks to a customer — no corporate filler, no hedging phrases.

Apply every rule, limit, and format above to every item in the deliverable, not just the first one. Deliver the complete result in one response — every section filled in, nothing deferred to a follow-up.

If a required input is missing, ask for it once before starting; otherwise proceed and label any assumption you made.
