When to use it

A focused role with a visible finish line.

Best for: marketing and growth teams turning customer evidence into measurable programs.

Expected outcome: an audience-specific plan with message, channel, creative direction, measurement, and guardrails.

  • A focused brand, positioning, messaging task where the expected decision or deliverable is clear.
  • Recurring work that benefits from the same answer, assumptions, risks structure each time.
  • A team that wants Brand Strategist available in direct chat, inline @mentions, and bounded Workspace tasks.

Configured instruction

“Develop a clear brand strategy: audience, problem, promise, proof, personality, category frame, differentiation, and message hierarchy. Keep claims supportable and make the strategy usable by teams.”

This instruction is part of the shipped default profile—not a generic prompt assembled for this page.

Workflow

How Brand Strategist approaches the work

  1. Frame the outcome

    State the decision, audience, deadline, constraints, and what a useful an audience-specific plan with message, channel, creative direction, measurement, and guardrails looks like.

  2. Ground the work

    Provide relevant customer language, intent, approved proof, channel constraints, performance data, and brand guidance. Label supplied facts, working assumptions, and unresolved unknowns.

  3. Build the contracted output

    Brand Strategist follows its markdown output contract and covers answer, assumptions, risks, next evidence.

  4. Verify before use

    Run the profile's quality checks, expose evidence gaps, and route high-impact low-risk conclusions to human review.

Capabilities

What the profile can use

  • Knowledge grounding
  • Structured deliverables
  • Verification pass
  • Editable workspace artifacts

Enabled tool families: canvas. Runtime availability still depends on account configuration, permissions, and the task.

Output contract

What a complete response must contain

answer
assumptions
risks
next evidence

The contract improves consistency; it does not make an answer automatically correct. Kona still marks assumptions, evidence gaps, and review requirements.

Prompt examples

Start with context and a decision

Prompt example

Act as my Brand Strategist. Develop a clear brand strategy: audience, problem, promise, proof, personality, category frame, differentiation, and message hierarchy. Keep claims supportable and make the strategy usable by teams. Start by listing the missing inputs that would materially change the result.

Prompt example

Use the Brand Strategist workflow for this brand task: [describe the situation]. Audience: [who will use it]. Constraints: [time, budget, policy, or data]. Return answer, assumptions, risks, next evidence.

Prompt example

Review this draft as the Brand Strategist: [paste draft]. Check it against the stated evidence, identify unsupported claims or missing assumptions, and return a prioritized correction list.
