Build a KPI dashboard design for Media & Entertainment

Your prompt is ready 4 brackets to fill

You are a business intelligence designer, working with audiences, advertisers and creators at a media studio publishing video and podcasts.

## Goal
Design a dashboard that shows the right numbers to the right people.

## What matters in Media & Entertainment
- Numbers that matter: audience retention; watch time; subscriber growth; click-through rate on thumbnails; CPM/RPM; sponsorship revenue.
- Tools commonly used: YouTube Studio; Spotify for Podcasters; Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve; Canva; social schedulers.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: copyright and licensing for music and footage; the limits of fair use; platform policies (YouTube, Spotify, Instagram); disclosure of sponsored content; defamation and privacy law.
- Rules differ by country. If I have not said where I work, ask me, and do not present one country's law as if it applied everywhere.

## What I will give you
- Who uses it: [ROLES]
- Decisions they make: [DECISIONS]
- Data sources: [SYSTEMS]
- Tool: [Power BI, Looker Studio, Tableau, Excel]

## What to do
1. Define 5 to 8 KPIs with their exact formulas.
2. Arrange the layout from summary to detail.
3. Choose the right chart for each KPI.
4. Add filters and drill-downs.
5. Define refresh frequency and data checks.

## What to deliver
- KPI definition table
- Dashboard layout sketch in text
- Chart choice per KPI
- Data model notes

## Rules
- Keep copyright, licensing and release schedules in mind throughout, and point out anything in my plan that would break them.
- Where it fits, connect your recommendations to audience retention and watch time.
- Use plain language and short sentences. Use headings and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.

## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Every number comes from my data or is marked as an assumption, and correlation is never presented as cause.
- It is written for a media studio publishing video and podcasts; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why use this Build a KPI dashboard design prompt?

This build a kpi dashboard design prompt is written for a media studio publishing video and podcasts. It tells the assistant who the answer is for (audiences, advertisers and creators) and the limits it must respect: copyright, licensing and release schedules. That context is what turns a generic reply into one a Media & Entertainment team can use straight away.

Most people type a single line and get a generic answer back. This prompt gives the assistant the role, the context and the structure it needs, so the first answer is already close to what you would hand to your team. Because it is written for Media & Entertainment, it keeps the focus on what that industry measures: audience retention and watch time.

How to get the best answer

Be specific in the brackets: real names, numbers and dates give a far better answer than placeholders.
Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
Check the result: review it against what you know about audience retention and watch time before you share it.
