What to Review Before This Session

Pre-Session Questions

Austin

When you sit down to record content, what's the biggest time blocker? (Recording, scripting, deciding what to say, something else?)

Dayani

From the moment you get a finished video, how long until it appears on Instagram or YouTube? What steps happen in between?

A. O'Neil

When Austin and you jam on content ideas, what's the one thing you wish you had a template or framework for?

Block 1: Current State Review (15 minutes)

Facilitator Goal: Map the real workflow. Draw the 7-stage pipeline on the board/screen and ask where friction points exist.

Questions to Ask the Team

The 7-Stage Pipeline (Current)

1. Ideation

Ideas live here

2. Calendar

Currently empty (gap)

3. Planning

Script, title, thumbnail (gap)

4. Recording

Raw recordings

5. Editing

Edited content

6. Distribution

Posted to platforms

7. Performance

Results tracking

Key Insight to Flag: The two gaps (Calendar and Planning stages) are where the new system will accelerate the team. Austin won't have to start from scratch on fridays. Dayani won't wait on planning decisions.

Block 2: System Walkthrough (20 minutes)

Facilitator Goal: Show the three components live. Don't lecture. Demo one prompt. Let Austin feel his voice in the system.

1. Voice Constitution (5 minutes)

This is Austin's personality encoded. It defines:

Why this matters: When Dayani or A. O'Neil write copy or prompts, they can reference the Voice Constitution to stay on-brand. When AI generates text, it uses the Constitution to match Austin's voice.

2. Master Prompts (10 minutes)

These are 10 ready-to-use AI prompts that live in the Content Engine. Examples:

Live Demo Suggestion: Show the "Script from Outline" prompt. Have Austin give you a topic and 3 quick talking points. Run the prompt live. Read the output. Ask: "Does that sound like you?" This moment is where the system gets real for the team.

3. Content Engine (5 minutes)

This is how all the pieces fit together into a repeatable rhythm:

Handoff Moment: At the end of this block, Austin should be able to answer: "What's the one prompt I use first every week?" (Answer: the Weekly Brief Generator.) Dayani should know: "Where do I find my assignments?" (Answer: in the brief, mapped to platforms and due dates.)

Block 3: Workflow Integration (25 minutes)

Facilitator Goal: Show where AI accelerates each stage. Assign clear roles. Identify who owns the "checkpoint" at each transition.

Mapping the New System into the 7 Stages

Stage 1: Ideation

Owner: Austin + A. O'Neil (existing Jam Sessions)

AI Assist: Content Idea Machine prompt (brainstorms from past flagship scripts and webinar themes)

Checkpoint: Ideas move to Content Calendar folder when Austin + A. O'Neil agree to pursue them.

Stage 2: Calendar

Owner: Dayani (with input from Austin on priority)

AI Assist: Weekly Brief Generator (pulls ideas, suggests dates, flags conflicts)

Checkpoint: Austin approves the brief every Friday. Dayani finalizes for the week.

Stage 3: Planning (Script, Title, Thumbnail)

Owner: A. O'Neil (scripting) + Dayani (visual planning)

AI Assist: Script Generator + Title & Thumbnail Brainstorm prompts

Checkpoint: Austin reviews script for voice accuracy. Approves before recording.

Stage 4: Recording

Owner: Austin (with Dayani coordinating sessions if video shoots)

AI Assist: None (this is pure Austin)

Checkpoint: Raw recordings move to Editing folder. Dayani confirms receipt.

Stage 5: Editing

Owner: Video editor (external contractor)

AI Assist: Social Repurposing prompt (generates captions + reel concepts while editor works)

Checkpoint: Edited video + repurposing ideas move to Distribution. Dayani schedules posting.

Stage 6: Distribution

Owner: Dayani (YouTube upload, Instagram captions, webinar promos)

AI Assist: Repurposed captions + scheduling templates

Checkpoint: Content goes live. Dayani logs it in Performance folder with scheduled date.

Stage 7: Performance

Owner: Dayani (tracking) + Austin (learning)

AI Assist: None yet (future: performance feedback loop)

Checkpoint: Weekly snapshot sent to Austin. Informs next week's ideation.

Who Does What, When

Austin

Ideates with A. O'Neil (ongoing). Reviews scripts for voice (before recording). Records content. Reviews performance summary weekly. Flags when something doesn't sound right.

Dayani

Owns the calendar and distribution. Runs Weekly Brief review with Austin every Friday. Coordinates with video editors. Posts to all platforms. Tracks performance. Flags scheduling conflicts.

A. O'Neil

Collaborates with Austin on ideation (Jam Sessions). Drafts scripts using the Script Generator. Creates speaking point outlines. Reviews social captions for tone.

Video Editor(s)

Receives raw recording. Edits for YouTube/social. Delivers final video by agreed deadline. No changes needed to current process.

How the Weekly Brief Connects to Friday Planning

Friday Planning session becomes the Brief Approval Meeting (30 minutes).

Outcome: By Friday end-of-day, everyone knows what's being recorded, when, and where it's going. No surprises on Tuesday morning.

Block 4: The Funnel Fix (15 minutes)

Facilitator Goal: Connect content architecture to revenue. Show how the system addresses the Sticky webinar leak (35 registered, 8 showed, 1 bought = 23% show rate, 12% conversion).

The Leak (What We Know)

The Content Architecture (New System Fix)

Create a 3-phase follow-up sequence timed around the webinar:

Phase 1: Reminder (Registration → Event)

Content: 3–4 short-form videos (60–90 seconds) answering common Sticky questions. Posted to Instagram, YouTube Shorts.

Goal: Keep Sticky top-of-mind. Answer objections before the webinar.

Cadence: Monday, Wednesday before the webinar.

Phase 2: Activation (Pre-Event Urgency)

Content: 1 flagship video (8–12 minutes) diving into one Sticky success story or common objection.

Goal: Build credibility. Show that Sticky actually works for coaches in Austin's space.

Timing: 48 hours before the webinar.

Phase 3: Conversion (Post-Event Offer)

Content: Replay teaser (if webinar was recorded) + offer-specific breakdown. Short form on social, email follow-up.

Goal: Convert attendees who didn't buy, and re-engage people who registered but didn't show.

Timing: 24 hours after webinar ends.

How the Content Engine Enables This

Expected Outcome: Next Sticky webinar should have higher show rate (target: 18+ out of 35 register). More attendees means more conversions. One flagship video + 4 short-form pieces beats hoping registrants remember.

Block 5: Roles, Rhythm & Next Steps (15 minutes)

Facilitator Goal: Lock in cadence and feedback loops. Who does what. When. How feedback gets to the system.

Weekly Cadence (New Rhythm)

Thursday (Dayani)

Run Weekly Brief Generator. Input this week's ideas + priorities. Generate the brief. Send to Austin + A. O'Neil for review.

Friday (All Team)

30-minute Brief Approval Meeting. Austin approves content, voice, priority. A. O'Neil notes scripting needs. Dayani finalizes schedule. Clear assignments for Monday start.

Monday–Thursday (Execution)

A. O'Neil drafts scripts. Austin records. Video editor works. Dayani posts. No surprises. Everyone working from the same brief.

Friday EOD (Austin)

Austin reviews performance snapshot from Dayani. Notes what's working. Ideas for next week. Feeds into next week's ideation.

The 30-Day Tuning Window

For 30 days, you're watching how the system works. The goal: refine the Voice Constitution based on real output. Here's what to track:

How to Flag When Something Doesn't Sound Like Austin

Austin will have final say. When AI-generated content feels off:

Communication Channel for Feedback

One shared doc: "Voice & System Feedback" lives in your Drive. Every week, each team member can add observations:

Dave reviews feedback every Friday. No changes to the system during the 30-day window—only observations. After day 30, we iterate based on what you've captured.
