Was on another channel that posted a basic prompt to use with Muse for a 30 day launch. I'm giving away secrets here but try the following in Muse (or really an agent should Work)
I just posted this on another site after they had tried to put up a use for muse for a 30 day launch. Send this to your muse agent and see what happens ( Inamed Mine Edgar from the movie "Electric Dreams"):
Here’s a rewritten, expanded prompt you can give your agent Copy everything below into muse:
Act as a senior book marketing strategist, social media director, launch manager, and copy chief. I’m launching my book, [Book Title], a [genre/category] book for [target audience]. First, read the full manuscript I provide. Then build a complete 30-day launch campaign and a 45-day content calendar.
Primary objective: Create a full, successful 30-day book launch campaign, with platform-specific social media posts and newsletter drafts, supported by comparable-title research, keyword research, hook mining, social listening, traction verification, and a final review-and-fix pass.
1. Read and analyze the manuscript
- Read the entire manuscript before planning.
- Identify genre, subgenre, target readers, positioning, promise, transformation, pain points, themes, tropes, controversies, quotable lines, stories, data, frameworks, checklists, myths, mistakes, emotional beats, and practical takeaways.
- Find the strongest hooks for this genre: contrarian takes, surprising facts, emotional stories, reader questions, “before/after” outcomes, mistakes, secrets, frameworks, and high-shareability moments.
- Extract 20–50 potential hooks and organize them by platform, audience, and launch phase.
2. Research comps, keywords, and social traction
- Identify 5–10 comparable titles (“comps”) published in the last 3–5 years in the same genre/category.
- For each comp, research:
- Title, author, publisher, pub date, price, formats, rating, review count, Amazon BSR/category rank.
- Amazon categories, BISAC subjects, SEO keywords, hashtags, TikTok/Instagram search terms, Google Trends, YouTube/Pinterest keywords.
- Social media handles and platforms.
- What they are posting: top-performing posts, hooks, captions, formats, posting cadence, hashtags, CTAs, offers.
- Whether they are actually getting traction: engagement rate, likes, comments, shares, saves, views, watch time, profile visits, link clicks, growth, sentiment, and quality of comments.
- Do not rely on follower count alone. Verify traction with engagement metrics and qualitative evidence.
- If live data is unavailable, use manual research, cite URLs/screenshots, and clearly mark estimates vs. verified data. Do not fabricate metrics.
- Follow the leading posts and accounts in this genre across social feeds. Identify patterns, gaps, and opportunities my book can own.
3. Build the 30-day launch strategy
Create a phased launch plan:
- Pre-launch: audience building, lead magnet, ARC/reviewer outreach, influencer/podcast outreach, waitlist, teasers, polls, behind-the-scenes, pre-orders.
- Launch week: daily momentum, social proof, reviews, bonuses, bundles, live events, email pushes, paid ads if relevant.
- Post-launch: sustain sales, reviews, UGC, repurposing, retargeting, community engagement, next offers.
- Include objectives, audience personas, messaging, positioning, offers, partnerships, email sequences, KPIs, budget assumptions, risks, and daily actions.
4. Create social media posts for every relevant platform
Create posts for all relevant platforms for this genre and audience, including at minimum: Instagram, Facebook, X/Twitter, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Pinterest, Threads, and any other platform where the genre is active. Include:
- Platform-native copy, hooks, captions, hashtags, CTAs, and formatting.
- Visual/video direction, asset notes, and repurposing ideas.
- 45 days of posts per platform, covering pre-launch, launch, and post-launch.
- Mix of formats: reels, carousels, stories, shorts, threads, pins, live, polls, UGC, quotes, reviews, author POV, reader pain points, and direct asks.
5. Create newsletter drafts
- Write newsletter drafts for the launch campaign.
- Include subject lines, preview text, body copy, CTAs, links, and segmentation notes.
- Place all newsletter drafts in a Google Drive folder named [Book Title] Launch – Newsletter Drafts.
- Recommend a publication rhythm (e.g., weekly pre-launch, 2–3x during launch week, weekly post-launch).
6. Deliverables and file structure
Create a Google Sheet named [Book Title] – 45-Day Launch Content Calendar with:
- One tab per social media platform, each containing 45 days of posts.
- Columns such as: Day, Date, Phase, Platform, Format, Hook, Post Copy, Hashtags, CTA, Asset/Visual Direction, Link, Goal/KPI, Status, Notes.
- A tab for newsletters with suggested publication rhythm and a direct link to the corresponding newsletter draft document in Google Drive.
- Additional tabs if useful: Start Here, Launch Plan, Comps & Keywords, Hooks Bank, KPIs, Asset Checklist, Review Log.
Create a Google Drive folder for newsletter drafts and keep all links in the spreadsheet.
7. Review, audit, and fix everything
After creating the launch plan, comps research, hooks, keywords, social posts, newsletters, spreadsheet, and Drive links:
- Review everything as a critical editor and launch strategist.
- Take note of needed adjustments: weak hooks, platform mismatch, missing CTAs, timing issues, compliance problems, broken links, missing assets, repetitive content, audience confusion, and gaps in the 30-day plan.
- Then create the fixes and update the spreadsheet and Google Drive drafts accordingly.
- Provide a final audit summary explaining what you changed and why.
8. Final output
Deliver:
- The full 30-day launch plan.
- Comps, keyword, and traction research report.
- Hook bank organized by genre and platform.
- 45 days of platform-specific social posts in the spreadsheet.
- Newsletter drafts in Google Drive with a rhythm tab and links in the spreadsheet.
- Final review notes and corrected versions.
- A launch dashboard with KPIs, daily actions, and optimization recommendations.
Ask me only essential clarifying questions. Otherwise, proceed with reasonable assumptions, flag them clearly, and use the manuscript as the source of truth. Do not plagiarize comps; use them only for pattern analysis. Do not invent data. Cite sources where possible.
