Generate campaign revenue reports

This is real work, not a feature someone invented — it comes from real job ads and real questions people asked. Below are four ready AI prompts: get it done, make it easy for the next person to say yes to, work out the right move when you are stuck, and stop it coming back.

Create the revenue report for Q2 email campaigns to send to finance on Friday. Include total attributed revenue, revenue by campaign, revenue per recipient, and a month-by-month trend for April through June. Verify the attribution window used and make sure totals match the payments report.

Make this revenue report easy to approve by finance: summarize total attributed revenue and revenue per recipient at the top, show a reconciled column that maps email revenue to payments entries, highlight any campaigns with attribution windows different from 7 days, and flag anomalies where revenue spikes but conversion rates did not. Add footnotes explaining attribution rules used this quarter.

Finance says our attributed revenue is $12k higher than their records.
Finance emailed that attributed email revenue for May is $12,000 higher than their ledger. I pulled the report that used a 7-day attribution window but I don't know whether they used cash or invoice basis, or whether our UTM tagging caused duplicate counts. What steps should I take, in order, to reconcile the two figures and what specific files or queries will resolve it fastest?

We repeatedly misalign email revenue with finance reports.
Every quarter we spend days reconciling email-attributed revenue with finance and lose credibility. The recurring issues look like inconsistent attribution windows, loose UTM naming, and ad-hoc overrides to conversion settings. Which single change to our reporting process will give the biggest reduction in reconciliation time and what governance step enforces it?

Questions people actually ask

honest answers, no sign-up

Every task here was seen in the real world. Someone doing the job named it, a real job ad asked for it, or a lot of people asked about it online.

If nothing real showed a task, it is not on the page. That is the whole rule.

They are the same job approached four ways, because what you need depends on where you are.

Get it done today. Make it easy for the next person to say yes to. Work out the right move when you are stuck. Learn the pattern so the job stops coming back.

For most of these jobs it can carry the heavy thinking - draft it, sort it, check it, rehearse it with you.

It cannot sit in your chair, take the blame when a number is wrong, or notice what nobody wrote down. Let it do the first 80%. Keep the last 20% that is truly yours.

No. Copy any prompt and paste it into the AI you already use. No account, no score, no wall in the way.

Any of them. The prompts describe the work rather than naming a product, so they are not tied to one assistant.

That is also why they keep working when you switch.

Change it freely. Every prompt is a starting line, not a rule.

Put in your real numbers, your real names and your real deadline. The more you make it yours, the better the answer comes back.

The tasks come from real job ads, published job data and the questions people ask in public forums.

The steps come from Mailchimp's own documentation, with practitioner sources for the traps the manual does not mention.

Push once. Ask it to sharpen the weakest part and to say what it assumed.

Most wrong answers come from a missing detail rather than a bad prompt - tell it the thing it could not know.
