Marketing teams are paying for the best AI models.
Then briefing them in two lines.
I see it in almost every team I speak to.
Top-tier model. Thin prompt.
Then frustration when the output feels generic.
The model isn't the weak link.
The brief is.
After 16 years in marketing, I know what a good brief looks like.
Audience. Deliverables. KPIs. Tone. Deadline.
We'd never hand an agency two lines and expect a campaign.
But that's exactly what we do with AI.
Because typing all that context takes ages.
So I tested it.
60 seconds typing a campaign brief into Claude.
60 seconds talking the same brief into Wispr Flow, a voice-to-text tool.
Typed: clear, but thin.
No KPIs. No deliverables. No deadline.
Spoken: a full brief.
Audience insight, four numbered deliverables, ROAS and CPM targets spelled correctly, tone, and a launch date. Built-in dictation would’ve given me one run-on paragraph with ROAS and CPM spelled wrong.
Same minute.
Completely different starting point.
I'll be honest, I expected a small difference.
It wasn't small.
When you talk, you brief like you would a person.
When you type, you brief like you're paying by the word.
If your team's AI output feels average, check the brief before you blame the model.
Keep talking, into your laptop, phone, and any app.
