AI for Your "Creative Flywheel": Prompts for Continuous Research, Ideation, and Analysis
Hey everyone, Happy Friday. On Monday, we built the strategic blueprint for the Creative Flywheel - the system for generating non-stop winning ads. We learned that the secret to sustainable success isn't hunting for one-off winners; it's building a self-improving machine.
A system is powerful. A system powered by AI is unstoppable.
Today, we're installing the turbocharger. I’m giving you a set of three specific AI prompts designed to accelerate each stage of the flywheel. You'll use AI to automate research, accelerate ideation, and even analyze your results. This is how you drastically reduce the friction in the system, allowing the flywheel to spin faster. And faster learning is the ultimate competitive advantage.
Here’s the AI-powered system we're implementing today:
How to use AI as the Chief Operating Officer of your Creative Flywheel.
A specific AI prompt for each key stage: Research, Creation, and Analysis.
A cohesive workflow that turns raw data into winning ads and new insights, over and over again.
Let's make your flywheel spin at 10x speed.
🔍 The Big Idea: AI as the COO of Your Creative Flywheel
Think of AI as the operational expert that reduces friction at every point in your system. Its job is to take the most time-consuming parts of the process—sifting through reviews, brainstorming dozens of ideas, making sense of data—and execute them in seconds.
This frees you up to focus on the highest-level strategy: asking the right questions, setting the right hypotheses, and making the final creative judgment. By using the following prompts in sequence, you create a seamless, semi-automated workflow where the output of one prompt becomes the input for the next.
🧰 Your "Creative Flywheel" AI Prompt Arsenal
Here are three distinct prompts that power your flywheel.
Prompt 1: The "Insight Extractor" (for Stage 1: Research) Use this prompt to turn messy customer data into clean, strategic fuel.
Act as an expert customer research analyst. Your job is to find the signal in the noise.
I am providing you with raw customer feedback about my product, [Your Product Name].
Read all the feedback carefully and extract ONLY the following information:
1. **Top 5 Customer Pain Points:** (The most common problems or frustrations mentioned).
2. **Top 5 Desired Outcomes:** (What are the customers ultimately trying to achieve?).
3. **3 "Golden Nugget" Quotes:** (Find 3 of the most emotional, specific, or surprising direct quotes from the feedback).
Here is the raw feedback:
[Paste your raw customer reviews, survey responses, or interview transcripts here]
Prompt 2: The "Hypothesis & Angle Generator" (for Stage 2: Create) Use this prompt to turn the fuel from Stage 1 into testable creative concepts.
Act as a senior creative strategist and copywriter.
I need to create a new ad test based on a key customer insight.
* **The Key Insight/Pain Point (from our research):** [Paste one key pain point from the output of Prompt 1, e.g., "Customers are worried the product will be difficult to set up."]
* **Our Product's Solution:** [Briefly describe how your product solves this pain, e.g., "Our product has a simple 3-step, 5-minute setup process."]
YOUR TASK:
1. **Formulate a Testable Hypothesis:** Using the "Hypothesis Engine" framework, write a single-sentence hypothesis for this test.
2. **Generate Ad Angles:** Based on the hypothesis, generate 5 distinct ad headlines or video hook ideas designed to test it.
Prompt 3: The "Learning Synthesizer" (for Stage 4: Learn) Use this prompt to analyze your results and generate the momentum for the next spin of the flywheel.
Act as an expert performance marketing analyst. Your job is to interpret creative test results and determine the next strategic action.
Here is the information from our latest test:
* **The Hypothesis We Tested:** [Paste the hypothesis from the output of Prompt 2, e.g., "We believe that new customers will respond better to creative that emphasizes 'ease of setup' over 'advanced features'..."]
* **The Test Results:** [Provide the simple, raw data. e.g., "Ad Set A (Ease of Setup) got a CPA of $35. Ad Set B (Advanced Features) got a CPA of $60."]
YOUR TASK:
1. **Declare the Result:** State clearly whether the hypothesis was "CONFIRMED" or "BUSTED."
2. **Synthesize the Key Learning:** In one single, powerful sentence, what did we learn about our customer from this test?
3. **Generate New Questions:** Based on this learning, propose 3 new, smart questions we should investigate in our next research cycle to go even deeper. This will fuel the next spin of the flywheel.
💣 VALUE BOMB (Create Your "Book of Knowledge"!)
Create a single master "Flywheel" document (a Google Doc or Notion page works perfectly). Each time you run this 3-prompt cycle, paste the outputs in order: The insights, the hypothesis and angles, and the final learnings. After just a few cycles, you'll have a priceless, searchable log of every insight, creative idea, test, and learning your brand has ever had. This document becomes your company's most valuable marketing asset.
The "Creative DNA" Analysis – Let AI Decode Your Winning Ads
The flywheel prompts are brilliant for learning from one test at a time. But what if you could learn from all your tests at once? The top 1% use AI to run a "Creative DNA" analysis, feeding it data from all their recent ads (winners and losers) to find the deep, hidden patterns of performance.
This isn't just a learning; it's your new creative rulebook.
The "Creative DNA" AI Prompt:
Act as an elite performance creative analyst. Your job is to find the deep, multi-variable patterns that separate winning ads from losers. I will provide you with descriptive data from my recent ad campaigns.
**My Goal:** To understand the core "Creative DNA" of my highest-performing ads.
**THE DATA:**
* **Winning Ads (My Top 3 Performers by CPA/ROAS):**
* **Ad 1:** [Describe its hook, visual style, core angle/message, and CTA. e.g., "Hook: Direct question to the camera. Visual: User-generated selfie video. Angle: Solves 'anxiety' pain point. CTA: Soft 'Learn More'."]
* **Ad 2:** [Describe it. e.g., "Hook: In Medias Res (starts with result). Visual: Polished studio demo. Angle: Highlights 'ease of use' benefit. CTA: Hard 'Shop Now'."]
* **Ad 3:** [Describe it.]
* **Losing Ads (My Bottom 3 Performers):**
* **Ad 4:** [Describe its hook, visual, angle, CTA.]
* **Ad 5:** [Describe it.]
* **Ad 6:** [Describe it.]
**YOUR TASK:**
1. Analyze the data from both winners and losers.
2. Identify 3-5 **"Winning DNA Traits."** These are the common themes, angles, tones, visual styles, or formats found primarily in the winning ads.
3. Identify 2-3 **"Losing DNA Traits."** These are common elements of the losing ads that we should probably avoid.
4. Based on this analysis, generate a **"Creative Mandate"**: A single paragraph of strategic advice for our creative team to guide all future ad development.
Why This Is a Game-Changer: You are no longer relying on gut feelings or learnings from a single A/B test. This prompt gives you a data-backed Creative Mandate based on your entire recent ad history. This mandate becomes a powerful directive in your creative briefs, ensuring every new ad is built on the genetic code of your past successes and avoids the DNA of your failures. This is how you use AI to build a compounding creative advantage.
🛠 TACTICAL TIP (Reverse-Engineer Your Winners!)
Don't have a new test to run? Take one of your current winning ads and work backwards to understand it better. Use the "Learning Synthesizer" prompt (Prompt 3). For the "Test Results" input, just say "This ad was the clear winner." Then ask the AI: "Based on this winning ad, what might the original hypothesis have been, and what is the key learning we should take from its success?" This reverse-engineers a strategic lesson from a past victory and helps you understand why it worked, so you can replicate it.
To the next one, Tomasz.
