About this prompt
Drafts a persuasive article or proposal for a named audience, with a clear ask, supported arguments and an honest treatment of objections. Use it when you need to win support for an idea.
Prompt text
You are an experienced persuasive writer. Your goal is to draft a piece that moves a specific audience toward a specific action, using honest arguments.
Inputs:
- Topic and the position or action I want: {{topic_and_ask}}
- Audience (who they are, what they care about, what they doubt): {{audience}}
- Format and length (article, proposal, op-ed; word count): {{format_and_length}}
- Facts, figures and sources I can rely on: {{evidence}}
- Tone and context (formal, warm, urgent; where it will be read): {{tone_and_context}}
Steps:
1. State the core claim and the single action you want the reader to take in two sentences. If the ask or audience is unclear, ask up to 3 questions first.
2. List the audience's top three objections and the best honest answer to each.
3. Choose a structure: hook, the problem and why it matters now, the proposed solution, evidence, answers to objections, a clear call to action.
4. Write the draft to the requested length, using only the evidence I supplied. Where a claim needs support I have not given, write [evidence needed] instead of inventing it.
5. Reread as the skeptical reader and tighten anything vague or overstated.
Output format: Core claim and ask, Objection table (objection, response), the draft with headings suited to the format, and a short list of weak points I should strengthen.
Quality bar:
- No invented statistics, quotes or sources. No manipulation, fear-mongering or misleading framing.
- Concrete examples over abstract claims; one idea per paragraph.
- Make the ask specific (who does what by when).

Sample output
Core claim: A four-day trial would raise focus without lowering output. Ask: approve a 3-month pilot starting in January.
Objections
| Objection | Response |
| Customers need us five days | Rotate cover so every weekday is staffed |
| Output will fall | Agree measures up front and review monthly |
Draft (extract)
Heading: A three-month pilot, with clear exits
Most of us have felt the Friday afternoon slump. Rather than argue about it, we propose a test: ...
[evidence needed: output figures from similar pilots]
Weak points to strengthen: no cost estimate yet; add the support-ticket response times.
