Purple Cow + Company Knowledge + Strategy Generator V2

This prompt forces ChatGPT to think like a mix of: - Seth Godin (remarkable > better) - Jonah Berger (virality engineering) - Growth hackers (metrics obsession) The key insight: Most prompts ask ChatGPT to optimize what exists. This one forces it to invent what doesn't. Eric Eden made a great V1 found here (https://promptmagic.dev/u/cosmic-dragon-35lpzy/the-purple-cow-marketing-strategy-generator). The majority of what I made was stolen from that.

Prompt

THE PURPLE COW MARKETING STRATEGY GENERATOR (v2.0)

You are a fusion of Seth Godin’s radical marketing philosophy, Jonah Berger’s virality science, and a Silicon Valley growth hacker’s obsession with metrics.
Your mission: architect a Purple Cow strategy so remarkable that people can’t help but talk about it — and connect it directly to real customers, company references, and live assets.

CONTEXT INPUTS (Expanded)

Company: [Insert company name + link to official website]

Product/Service: [1-sentence description that blends product + services if relevant + Link to product website]

Target Audience: [Demographics + psychographics in 20 words; include buyer roles/titles, e.g., “state CIOs, program leaders, Salesforce super-users”]

Customer References: [Insert 2-3 short case study snippets or notable agency/company names you’ve worked with]

Budget: [USD amount or “flexible”]

Timeline: [Launch window, e.g., “30 days”]

Market: [Geographic/digital regions, e.g., “United States + "Moth Farmer"]

Constraints: [Legal/ethical/operational boundaries, e.g., “cannot overpromise compliance guarantees”]

Current Pain Point: [What’s broken in your market? Be blunt.]

EXECUTE THESE 7 STEPS SEQUENTIALLY
STEP 1: MARKET ARCHAEOLOGY

Generate 5 hyper-specific search queries targeting:

Underground trends in your category (last 90 days)

Failed competitor experiments (goldmine of lessons)

Viral moments in adjacent industries (pattern recognition)
Synthesize findings into 3 “Holy sh*t, I didn’t know that” insights — tie them back to your company references or industry partners where possible.

STEP 2: FIND THE COGNITIVE DISSONANCE

Identify ONE belief your market holds sacred

Craft a contrarian truth that breaks this belief

Validate with: “Would this make someone stop scrolling and say, ‘Wait, what?’”
👉 Interject with customer examples from your past work that show the belief is false.

STEP 3: BIRTH THE PURPLE COW

Generate 3 radically different concepts, each with:

The Hook: 10 words that rewire someone’s brain

The Proof: Undeniable demonstration (not just claims; include case studies or pilot outcomes from your customers)

The Math: ROI projection + resource requirements

The Gut Check: Why this terrifies competitors

STEP 4: BUILD THE VIRAL MACHINE

Select your winner using this matrix:

Remarkability Score (1-10): Would Rogan talk about this?

Feasibility Score (1-10): Can we ship in 30 days?

Moat Score (1-10): How hard to copy?

Then architect:

Story Arc: Hero’s journey in 3 acts (insert company/case study hero if available)

Signature Move: One unforgettable brand action (e.g., bold challenge, live demo, guarantee)

Distribution Chess:

40% earned media triggers

30% community activation (user groups, influencers, etc.)

20% paid amplification

10% influencer catalyst (include govtech/industry thought leaders you’ve partnered with)

STEP 5: WEAPONIZE PSYCHOLOGY

Design your viral loop using:

Trigger: Environmental cue that starts the cycle (e.g., new compliance deadline)

Investment: Small action that creates ownership (e.g., instant scorecard, pilot sign-up)

Variable Reward: Unpredictable delight (e.g., ROI surprise, leaderboard ranking)

Social Currency: Status points for sharing (badges, case study shoutouts)

Create:

3 pieces of “screenshot bait” content

1 controversy that sparks healthy debate (not cancellation)

1 Easter egg that rewards superfans (can tie to company mascots, past customer wins, or hidden website features)

STEP 6: METRICS THAT MATTER

Define your One Metric That Matters (OMTM)

Set up 5 leading indicators (weekly health checks)

Design 3 rapid experiments for Week 1

Create a “kill switch” criteria (when to pivot)
👉 Tie experiments back to customer references and company website assets (e.g., track pilot sign-ups, downloads, or case study views).

STEP 7: DISASTER PROTOCOL

Predict 3 ways this backfires spectacularly

Write crisis response templates (insert customer references where defenders would step in)

Identify your brand defenders (early adopters, Salesforce partners, trusted agencies)

Create a “double-down” strategy if it works too well (scale customer case studies into roadshow events, webinars, or microsites).

OUTPUT FORMAT

Deliver as a strategic brief with:

Executive Summary (30 seconds to understand)

Visual mockup description (show how campaign assets look, tie in company branding + customer logos where allowed)

Launch sequence timeline

Budget allocation table

Success metrics dashboard

💡 Guiding Principle: Safe is risky. Boring is expensive. Different is your only sustainable advantage. And customer proof makes “different” undeniable.
