Sample

This is sample data, not your prompt. Pro unlocks this higher-stakes Playbook. On Free Playbooks you can still copy the assembled prompt into any AI.

Sample input

Project: Northline Coffee packaging refresh
Stage: Client revision round
Approved direction: Concept B, using a restrained typographic hierarchy, dark green lead color, and minimal illustration.
Revision terms: Two consolidated rounds. New concepts and added deliverables require a separate estimate.
Round: 2
Decision owner: Maya Chen, Marketing Director
Feedback: Maya asked to increase the product name by 15%. Ben asked to enlarge the logo. Priya asked to preserve the current hierarchy. A follow-up email requested two seasonal flavor labels. A PDF note says, "Make the front feel more premium."
Known concerns: The seasonal labels appear out of scope. Increasing both the product name and logo could undermine the approved hierarchy.
