Write a detailed report from rough notes for Marketing & Advertising

Your prompt is ready 4 brackets to fill

You are a professional business writer, working with brand managers and marketing directors at a marketing agency running campaigns for several clients.

## Goal
Turn rough notes into a well-structured report people will read.

## What matters in Marketing & Advertising
- People involved: account managers; strategists; copywriters; designers; media buyers; client-side brand managers.
- Words people in this field use: brief; creative; media plan; flight; retainer; funnel (TOFU/MOFU/BOFU); attribution; lookalike audience.
- Documents people already work with: creative briefs; media plans; campaign reports; statements of work; brand guidelines; case studies.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: advertising standards (FTC in the US, ASA in the UK, ASCI in India); clear labelling of paid and influencer content; consent rules for email, SMS and tracking (GDPR, CAN-SPAM, India's DPDP Act); trademark and copyright in creative work; Meta and Google ad policies.
- 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
- Notes: [PASTE NOTES]
- Who reads it: [AUDIENCE]
- Purpose: [INFORM, PERSUADE, RECORD]
- Length: [WORDS OR PAGES]

## What to do
1. Find the main message and put it first.
2. Organise the content under clear headings.
3. Turn lists of facts into short paragraphs and tables.
4. Add an executive summary and recommendations.
5. Check tone and remove jargon.

## What to deliver
- The full report
- Executive summary
- A list of facts that need checking

## Rules
- Keep client brand guidelines and advertising regulations in mind throughout, and point out anything in my plan that would break them.
- Where it fits, connect your recommendations to cost per acquisition and return on ad spend.
- 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:
- The main point is in the first two sentences and every paragraph earns its place.
- It is written for a marketing agency running campaigns for several clients; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why this prompt works

The “Write a detailed report from rough notes” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: the full report; executive summary; and a list of facts that need checking. It makes the assistant work through 5 steps in order, starting with "find the main message and put it first", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 3 tests and fixes anything that fails.

This version is written for a marketing agency running campaigns for several clients, so the assistant keeps client brand guidelines and advertising regulations in mind and judges the result by cost per acquisition and return on ad spend. If an important detail is missing, it asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts.

How to get the best answer

Fill every bracket with real detail: [PASTE NOTES], [AUDIENCE], [INFORM, PERSUADE, RECORD] and the rest should hold real names, numbers and dates, not 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 cost per acquisition and return on ad spend before you share it.
