The method
Curation is the product.
A prompt earns its place here only if it clears a four-part bar.
- 01
Role assignment
Every prompt casts a specific, credentialed expert with a point of view, not a generic assistant. The role sets the standard the answer has to meet.
- 02
[BRACKET] variables
Fill-in slots carry your product, audience, and real facts into the prompt, so it adapts to your situation instead of a one-size-fits-all answer.
- 03
A structured deliverable
Every prompt dictates the output shape: numbered sections in a set order, so the answer arrives usable instead of a wall of text you have to mine.
- 04
One instruction that pushes for a sharper answer
A single line that refuses the obvious. Flag what a competitor could claim, name the cost of a choice, rank by impact, cut the filler.
