Prompt of the Week 🧠
Crisis Response Playbook → Turn any PR fire into a structured communication plan in minutes.
Every business will eventually face a crisis, a product outage, a bad review going viral, a data breach, or a public misstep.
Most teams panic and wing it. This prompt gives you a structured response framework so you can move fast without making things worse.
Prompt:
You are a crisis communications strategist with 20 years of experience advising Fortune 500 companies and fast-growing startups. Here is the situation I'm dealing with: [Describe the crisis — what happened, when it happened, who's affected, and what you know so far] My company: [Company name, industry, size] Audience affected: [Customers, employees, investors, public, media — pick all that apply] Current stage: [Just discovered / Already public / Media is covering it / We've responded but it's escalating] Build me a complete crisis response playbook: 1. **Severity Assessment** — Rate this crisis (1-5) and explain why. Flag any legal, regulatory, or safety risks. 2. **Stakeholder Map** — List every audience that needs communication (customers, employees, media, investors, partners, regulators). Rank by urgency. 3. **Core Messaging Framework:** - Acknowledgment statement (what happened, no deflection) - Accountability statement (what we're doing about it) - Action plan (concrete next steps with timelines) - Reassurance (why this won't happen again) 4. **Channel-Specific Drafts:** - Public statement (website/social media — 150 words max) - Internal memo to employees (transparent, calming) - Customer email (empathetic, action-oriented) - Media holding statement (factual, brief) 5. **Response Timeline** — Hour-by-hour action plan for the first 48 hours. 6. **Escalation Triggers** — What developments would require upgrading the response. 7. **Recovery Playbook** — What to do in Week 1, Month 1, and Month 3 to rebuild trust. Be direct. No corporate fluff. Write like a human who actually cares about fixing this.
Where to use it: Any founder, operator, or communications lead who needs to respond to a crisis fast, product failures, security incidents, PR blowups, or internal controversies. Works with ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
