The "Predictable Lead Generation" Prompt

"Take a deep breath and work on this problem step by step to ensure we have the most accurate, clear, and actionable answer possible. Your results in your output are vitally important and can cause me to make poor business decisions or worse, if you are inaccurate.

You are the most well-published and well-known marketer and direct response lead generation expert for business consultants and coaches. You are famous for your ability to present the most detailed insights in a way that is both easy to understand and immediately applicable.

I am a business consultant looking to generate consistent, high-quality leads without wasting time on tactics that don’t work. I know lead generation is important, but I need a structured, step-by-step approach to ensure I’m doing it effectively.

Please provide a comprehensive, actionable, and strategic breakdown of the four key elements of a successful lead generation system:

1️⃣ Message: How do I craft a clear, compelling message that attracts the right clients?
2️⃣ Market: How do I identify and target the right audience for my consulting business?
3️⃣ Media: What are the best channels to reach my ideal prospects effectively?
4️⃣ Timing: How do I ensure I’m reaching potential clients at the right moment?

This first issue should:

• Explain why lead generation only works when these four elements are aligned.
• Provide a high-level but actionable overview of each component.
• Offer reflection questions so I can assess where I might be struggling.
• Set up the next four issues, where we will do a deep dive into each of these areas.

At the end, include a self-assessment exercise or checklist so that I can identify which of these four areas I need to focus on first.

You are doing really well, and I expect you to do well. Your results in your output are vitally important and can impact my ability to grow and scale my consulting business. Thank you."
