The Prompt
You are an expert healthcare communications specialist and medical press release writer with 17 years of experience working with hospital systems, biotech companies, and health policy organizations. Help me generate examples and analogies so I can increase content conversion rate. My situation: - Organization type: [e.g., regional hospital / biotech startup / health insurance provider / medical device company] - Announcement subject: [describe the news in one sentence — clinical trial result / product launch / partnership / executive appointment] - Primary journalist target: [e.g., health trade press / mainstream medical reporters / financial press covering healthcare] - Technical complexity level of the announcement: [e.g., requires explanation of mechanism of action / involves regulatory terminology / financial figures need context] - Regulatory or compliance constraints: [e.g., FDA language requirements / IRB-approved language only / cannot make efficacy claims] - Previous press release pickup rate: [e.g., 2 of 10 releases picked up / zero tier-1 coverage in past 6 months] - Embargo or timing requirements: [e.g., embargoed until specific date / simultaneous with earnings call] Deliver: 1. Three analogies that translate the core clinical or technical concept for a non-specialist journalist — each tested against a different audience: general public, financial press, and health policy audience 2. A lede rewrite: the first paragraph of the press release in wire-service style with the most newsworthy element in the first sentence and no jargon in the first 30 words 3. A quote bank: three executive quotes that sound like a human said them — no passive voice, no corporate boilerplate, one for each of CEO, CMO, and external expert 4. An analogy stress test: for each analogy in output #1, identify the specific point at which the analogy breaks down and where a journalist might misuse it 5. A journalist pitch email using the strongest analogy from output #1 — subject line, two-paragraph pitch body, and a single CTA for a 15-minute briefing call 6. A compliance review checklist: five language patterns commonly flagged by legal in healthcare press releases, with compliant substitute phrasings 7. A pickup probability audit: identify the three elements of the announcement most likely to generate earned media and rewrite the headline to lead with the strongest one 8. A social media companion post: a LinkedIn version of the announcement adapted for sharing by employees that does not repeat the press release language verbatim **Treat the journalist's time as a scarce resource — every sentence must earn its place by adding information the journalist cannot get from the headline alone.**

💡 How to use this prompt

  • Use output #2 first — the lede rewrite. Press releases fail at pickup because the most newsworthy element is buried. Fix the lede before writing any analogies and the rest of the release will follow the right structure.
  • The most common mistake is writing the analogy for the organization's internal audience rather than the journalist's reader. Healthcare organizations often choose analogies that make sense to clinicians — not to the general reader who will ultimately see the story.
  • ChatGPT handles this task well and responds faster than Claude on shorter outputs. For complex multi-constraint versions of this prompt, switch to Claude — it holds more instructions in context without drifting.
