SEO-Ready Structure
01
Core Content Intelligence
The high-level strategy that dictates the piece's performance in the outbound sales ecosystem.
Instructions
1. Target Primary Keyword: High-intent term for outbound sales teams (e.g., 'cold email outreach automation'). 2. Secondary Keywords: 5-7 semantically related terms (e.g., 'sales engagement platform features', 'prospecting sequence best practices', 'lead enrichment tools'). 3. Target Word Count: Specify based on SERP depth and complexity of outbound sales workflows (typically 2,000-3,500 words for comprehensive guides). 4. Reading Level: Aim for 10th-11th grade for professional sales teams, balancing technical detail with clear actionability.
Example Output
"Primary: 'Outbound Sales Prospecting Framework'. Word Count: 3,000. Reading Level: Professional, actionable."
02
Primary Intent & Tone Palette
Defining the psychological 'Vibe' of the article for outbound sales professionals.
Instructions
Select one: 'Informational' (Educational on best practices), 'Commercial' (Comparison of outbound tools/strategies), or 'Transactional' (Feature-focused on solving a specific outbound pain point). Define the tone: 'Data-Driven Operator' (focus on metrics and efficiency), 'Strategic Coach' (guiding on long-term success), or 'Process Innovator' (introducing new methods).
Example Output
"Intent: Commercial. Tone: Data-Driven Operator (analyzing which prospecting methods yield the highest conversion rates)."
03
The Persona & 'Job-to-be-Done'
Ensuring the content resonates with a specific, high-intent outbound sales leader.
Instructions
Define the target persona (e.g., 'VP of Sales at a B2B SaaS company'). State their JTBD: 'I need to consistently fill my pipeline with qualified leads without overwhelming my SDRs'. List 3 core anxieties they feel about this topic: 1. SDR burnout, 2. Low response rates on cold outreach, 3. Inaccurate lead data.
Example Output
"Persona: Sales Development Manager. JTBD: Optimize cold outreach sequence effectiveness. Anxieties: 1. Tool sprawl and integration issues, 2. Proving ROI of outbound efforts, 3. Maintaining SDR productivity."
04
Competitive Knowledge Gaps
Identifying what competitors missed in outbound sales content to ensure this piece is 10x better.
Instructions
Analyze the top 3 ranking pages for the primary keyword. What are they not saying? (e.g., they don't detail A/B testing strategies for email subject lines, or they lack specific data on optimal follow-up cadence). Define our 'Unique Value Add': Proprietary outbound engagement metrics, a free cold email template generator, or a contrarian take on 'spray and pray' tactics.
Example Output
"Gap: Competitors focus on general outreach tips; we focus on optimizing LinkedIn connection request messaging and timing. Value: Free 'Outbound Sequence Performance Calculator'."

05
CTR-Optimized Title & Meta Architecture
Defining the 'Hooks' that drive outbound sales professionals from the SERP to the page.
Instructions
Provide 4 title options: 1. Authority (e.g., 'The Definitive Guide to Outbound Prospecting'). 2. Listicle (e.g., '10 Proven Cold Email Strategies'). 3. Question (e.g., 'Are Your Prospecting Sequences Failing?'). 4. Benefit (e.g., 'Double Your Pipeline with Smarter Outbound'). Meta description must be < 155 chars with a 'Click-trigger' (e.g., 'Includes 5 Free Outreach Templates').
Example Output
"Title: 'The 2024 Playbook: Mastering Outbound Sales Pipeline Generation'. Meta: 'Struggling with low conversion rates? Learn the 5-step outbound framework used by top B2B teams. Get your free prospecting template pack.'"
06
Semantic Pillar Outline (H2/H3)
The structural backbone that satisfies both users and LLM crawlers for outbound sales topics.
Instructions
Map H2s to 'Search Intent stages' within the outbound sales funnel. Use H3s for granular steps. Every H2 must contain at least one bolded 'Direct Answer' for Featured Snippet capture.
Example Output
"H2: Defining Your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) for Outbound; H3: Key Attributes for Accurate Segmentation; H2: Building High-Converting Prospecting Sequences; H3: Crafting Compelling Cold Email Subject Lines."
07
AEO & Machine-First Optimization
Ensuring visibility in AI Search snapshots and LLM responses for outbound sales queries.
Instructions
1. Format all lists (e.g., steps, tools, metrics) with proper <ul> tags. 2. Use 'Entity Triplets' (Subject-Predicate-Object) for key concepts (e.g., 'SalesLoft' - 'enables' - 'multi-channel outreach'). 3. Include an FAQ section with 3-5 high-volume questions relevant to outbound sales managers. 4. Bold specific 'Data Facts' and statistics.
Example Output
"FAQ: 'What is the average cold email response rate?'. Answer: 'The industry average for B2B cold email response rates typically ranges from 2-5%.' (Bold this)."
08
Conversion Bridge & CTA
Connecting helpful outbound sales advice to your actual product solution.
Instructions
Identify the 'Natural Insertion Point' for the product (e.g., when discussing CRM integration or sequence automation). Choose a CTA that matches the intent: 'Download Outreach Template Pack' for ToFu, 'Request a Demo' for BoFu.
Example Output
"Insertion: Mention our platform's AI-powered email personalization in the 'Personalization Tactics' section. CTA: 'See how [Your Product Name] can automate your outreach in under 15 minutes.'"
Pro Tips & Insights
01
A content brief is a 'Contract' between strategy and execution for outbound sales campaigns. Vague briefs result in generic outreach that fails to cut through the noise.
02
The 'Unique Value Add' is the only thing that prevents your outbound sales content from being commoditized by AI. If AI can write it without your specific data or framework, the brief is too generic.
03
Search Intent for outbound sales isn't binary. A user might start with 'how to write a cold email' but secretly want a 'sales engagement platform recommendation'. Great briefs pivot the reader towards the solution.
04
LLMs love 'Certainty' and 'Format'. Use tables of outbound metrics and bulleted lists of best practices to make your content easy for AI to extract as 'authoritative advice'.
