Content Pillars & Themes
5 promptsDefine Core Content Pillars
1/30✨ What it does
ChatGPT proposes 4-5 content pillars for [BRAND] in [NICHE] that match [PLATFORMS], [DESCRIBE YOUR IDEAL AUDIENCE], and your business goals. You pick the mix you will actually post, then brief writers from those pillars.
<context> Brand: [BRAND] Niche: [NICHE] Primary platforms: [PLATFORMS] Audience: [DESCRIBE YOUR IDEAL AUDIENCE] Business goals: [E.G. AWARENESS, LEADS, RETENTION] </context> <task> 1. Propose 4-5 content pillars that map directly to [BRAND]'s expertise, audience needs, and business goals. 2. For each pillar, give a one-line definition, the audience problem it solves, and the funnel stage it serves (TOFU/MOFU/BOFU). 3. Suggest a target percentage mix across pillars (e.g. 40/30/20/10) and justify the split. 4. Flag any pillar that overlaps too heavily with another and recommend a merge. 5. Output as a table: Pillar | Definition | Audience Problem | Funnel Stage | % Mix. </task>
Pro tip: Paste your last 20 best-performing posts into ChatGPT first and ask it to reverse-engineer your existing pillars before proposing new ones.
Generate Theme Buckets per Pillar
2/30✨ What it does
ChatGPT builds 6-8 year-long theme buckets under each of [PASTE YOUR 4-5 PILLARS] for [BRAND] in [NICHE], specific enough to brief a writer. You choose the buckets you will repeat, then file them next to the pillars.
<context> Brand: [BRAND] Niche: [NICHE] Approved content pillars: [PASTE YOUR 4-5 PILLARS] </context> <task> 1. For each pillar, generate 6-8 recurring theme buckets (sub-topics) that can sustain content for a full year. 2.

Note which themes are evergreen vs. timely. 5. Output grouped by pillar as a nested bullet list. </task>
Pro tip: Ask ChatGPT to rank the themes by how easy each is to produce on a tight week so you have low-effort fallbacks.
Map Pillars to Audience Journey
3/30✨ What it does
ChatGPT maps [PASTE PILLARS] for [BRAND] in [NICHE] to unaware through customer stages and flags which stages the set under-serves. You add the missing angles, then plan posts that close those gaps.

Map each content pillar to the audience-awareness stages it serves best. 2. Identify which stages are currently under-served by the pillar set. 3.

Audit & Rebalance Existing Pillars
5/30✨ What it does
ChatGPT audits the last 90 days of [PASTE DATA] for [BRAND] in [NICHE] and shows which pillars are over- or under-invested versus engagement. You shift next month's mix toward the pillars that earn their effort.
