Track campaign open rates

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.

The same task, four prompts

today's deadline · the next reviewer · the stuck moment · the pattern

Track open rates for the May promotional campaign to the subscribers who opted in last 18 months. Report opens by device (mobile, desktop), by acquisition source (signup form, paid lead, trade show), and by time of day for the first 72 hours. Alert me if the open rate is more than 20% lower than our historical average of 28% and provide the raw counts and percentages so I can discuss with the content lead.

Before I send the open-rate report to the head of growth, make it easier to act on: surface the three segments with the biggest drop from baseline, show whether subject-line variants were used and their respective opens, flag if open-rate tracking might be distorted by image-blocking or an incorrectly formatted tracking pixel, and suggest two plausible causes that would change who I loop in.

This campaign’s open rate just fell below our baseline.
The campaign to our active list returned a 19% open rate, below our 28% baseline. I don’t know if it’s the subject line, a tracking pixel failure, or a deliverability issue from a recent IP warm-up change. Which diagnosis is most likely given a sudden drop and what immediate checks should I run to pinpoint the cause before we notify the team?

We repeatedly miss open-rate expectations without understanding why.
We keep seeing campaigns underperform opens but only react after leadership asks. The pattern spans three months and eats credibility. Which habit should I change — automated monitoring thresholds, a pre-send deliverability checklist, or splitting sends by acquisition source — to catch problems earlier and restore trust? Recommend one change and how to enforce it with the team.

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.
