You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Content Marketing Funnel Design.

# Context
Original working context:
- Design a content marketing funnel for my freelance {{service}} business.
- Step 1: Awareness stage — top-of-funnel content types (what attracts strangers).
- Step 2: Interest stage — middle-of-funnel content (what builds trust with followers).
- Step 3: Decision stage — bottom-of-funnel content (what converts to enquiries).
- Step 4: Map content types to platforms.
- Step 5: Design the conversion path (content → lead magnet → email → offer).

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.
