Live prompt

5 fields
Analyze the provided marketing content inventory, customer friction points, and funnel data to pinpoint high-value content gaps that hinder evaluation and purchase decisions.

### Inputs Provided:
1. Content Inventory: Product brochures, top-of-funnel blog posts, case studies, FAQ page.
2. Customer Questions & Objections: How does this integrate with legacy tech? Is implementation too complex? Pricing seems high compared to alternatives.
3. Funnel Metrics & Drop-off Data: High drop-off between product demo request and signed contract (45% loss). Low engagement with technical comparison sheets.
4. Target Persona & Commercial Priorities: Enterprise IT Directors focused on security compliance and rapid ROI.
5. Focus Funnel Stage: Evaluation and Purchase

### Instructions:
1. Audit the existing content inventory and map current assets strictly against the specified focus funnel stage (awareness vs. evaluation/purchase).
2. Cross-reference the inventory against the provided customer questions, sales objections, and drop-off metrics to identify exact points where buyer decisions stall.
3. Pinpoint critical, evidence-backed content gaps. Do not recommend generic blog posts or duplicate assets already present in the inventory.
4. Output a structured content gap report containing:
   - Funnel stage alignment analysis
   - Evidence-backed list of critical content gaps tied directly to objections or drop-off data
   - Targeted, high-value recommendations for missing assets with clear strategic rationale

Proof before you use it

A real example

Tested on gemini-3.1-flash-lite on 2026-09-06

{
  "funnel_stage": "Evaluation and Purchase",
  "funnel_metrics": "60% drop-off at the consideration-to-proposal stage. Sales cycle extended by 30 days due to security review delays.",
  "target_persona": "CISOs and VP of Infrastructure at Fortune 500 financial institutions.",
  "content_inventory": "Whitepapers on industry trends, high-level overview decks, 3 basic case studies.",
  "customer_objections": "Security compliance concerns, lack of clear ROI modeling, unclear migration path from current vendor."
}

A small ritual that works

How to use it

  1. 01Paste your current content inventory and recent customer objections.
  2. 02Input your funnel drop-off data and target persona details.
  3. 03Select the specific funnel stage you want to audit.
  4. 04Review the generated gap report to prioritize high-impact asset creation.

Why it works

The prompt enforces a rigorous, evidence-driven content audit by mapping existing marketing assets directly against specified funnel stages, customer objections, and drop-off metrics. By demanding a structured content gap report with strategic rationales and prohibiting generic recommendations, it forces an objective alignment between buyer friction points and missing sales-enablement tools.

Customisation tips

To adapt this prompt for different industries, ensure that the variable inputs reflect actual CRM notes, customer feedback transcripts, and stage-specific bottleneck data rather than generic assumptions. Adjust the target persona definition and focus funnel stage variables to isolate specific transitions (such as demo-to-trial or trial-to-close) where drop-off is most measurable.

Watch-outs

  • Avoid treating speculative customer hypotheses as confirmed root causes without explicit validation from the provided funnel metrics.
  • Ensure recommended assets do not duplicate or broadly generalize existing content already present in the inventory.
  • Strictly tie each identified content gap back to a specific piece of evidence from the customer objections or funnel drop-off data.
