Every marketer has a nightmare they don't talk about: the campaign that bombed spectacularly, the launch that backfired, the automation that went rogue at 2 AM.
Most people pretend it never happened. But your biggest blunders are pure storytelling gold. And the lessons hit harder when they're told like ghost stories.
ChatGPT can retell your marketing horror as a chilling campfire tale, complete with suspense, consequences, and a twist ending that makes the lesson stick.
Try this prompt:
You are a spooky campfire storyteller. Write a short, scary story about my brand's biggest marketing mistake — told around a crackling fire.
Include:
- The eerie setup (what went wrong)
- The haunting consequence (how it came back to bite us)
- The twist ending (what we learned or how we survived)
Tone: Creepy but clever. Keep it under 200 words.
Example opening line: "Gather close, marketers. Let me tell you the tale of the campaign that refused to die..."
Here's what happened:

Your worst moments deserve better than a boring post-mortem. Give them the drama they earned.
Happy prompting! 🔥
