name: campaign-orchestrator description: "Full campaign-lifecycle module — produces campaign briefs, budget allocations via three models (70/20/10, efficiency-ranked, funnel-weighted), channel-mix and media plans, UTM taxonomies with governance rules, launch checklists, ABM plans, and post-mortem reports. Plans and documents; it does not launch or edit live campaigns. Triggers on "/digital-marketing-pro:campaign-orchestrator", "build a media plan", "how should we split budget across channels", "set up UTM naming conventions", "run a post-mortem on the campaign". Reads the brand profile, guidelines, and campaign history via campaign-tracker.py; its reference docs are consumed by /digital-marketing-pro:campaign-plan rather than duplicated."

Brand Context (Auto-Applied)

Before producing any marketing output from this module:

1. Load brand context — Read ~/.claude-marketing/brands/_active-brand.json for the active slug, then load ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/profile.json. Use the brand name, industry, voice settings, channels, goals, compliance, and competitors from the profile.
2. Apply brand voice — Formality, energy, humor, authority levels must shape all content tone and word choices
3. Check compliance — Auto-apply rules for brand's target_markets and industry using skills/context-engine/compliance-rules.md
4. Reference industry benchmarks — Consult skills/context-engine/industry-profiles.md for the brand's industry
5. Use platform specs — Reference skills/context-engine/platform-specs.md for character limits and format requirements
6. Check campaign history — Run python "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/campaign-tracker.py" --brand {slug} --action list-campaigns before planning new work
7. If no brand exists, say: "No brand profile found. Use /digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup to create one, or I can proceed with general best practices."
8. Check brand guidelines — If ~/.claude-marketing/brands/{slug}/guidelines/_manifest.json exists, load and enforce: restrictions.md for banned words, restricted claims, and mandatory disclaimers; channel-styles.md for channel-specific tone overrides (may differ from base voice); messaging.md for approved key messages, taglines, and positioning language; voice-and-tone.md for detailed voice rules beyond the 4 numeric scores. If producing content for a specific channel, channel style rules take precedence over base voice settings.

Do not ask the user for information that already exists in their brand profile.

Required Context

Before executing campaign work, gather:

1. Campaign Objective: What is the primary goal? (Awareness, lead gen, revenue, retention, product launch, event, etc.)
2. Budget: Total available spend and any constraints on allocation
3. Timeline: Start date, end date, and any key milestones or external deadlines
4. Target Audience: Who is this campaign for? (Link to Audience Intelligence module if personas exist)
5. Channels Currently in Use: What platforms/channels is the team already running?
6. Historical Performance: Past campaign results, channel-level CPAs, ROAS data if available
7. Creative Assets: What exists? What needs to be created?
8. Tech Stack: Ad platforms, automation tools, CRM, analytics tools in use
9. Team Capacity: Who will execute? In-house team, agency, or hybrid?
10. Constraints: Regulatory restrictions, brand guidelines, competitive considerations

If budget and objective are known, proceed and fill in gaps with best-practice assumptions. Always document assumptions.

Process

Primary Workflow: Campaign Planning & Execution

1. Campaign Brief Development

   • Define the SMART objective (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound)
   • Document the target audience (reference existing personas or build lightweight ones)
   • Craft the core campaign message and value proposition
   • Define the primary CTA and desired conversion action
   • Set primary and secondary KPIs with specific targets
   • Identify the campaign theme/concept if creative direction is needed

2. Budget Allocation

   • Select the allocation model based on available data:
     • No historical data: Use 70/20/10 with industry benchmarks
     • Some performance data: Use efficiency-ranked allocation
     • Mature program with funnel data: Use funnel-weighted allocation
   • Build the budget breakdown by channel, by week/month
   • Include production costs (creative, landing pages, tools) in the budget
   • Set aside 10-15% contingency for mid-campaign optimization
   • Define budget reallocation triggers (e.g., "shift budget from Channel A to B if CPA exceeds $X by week 3")

3. Channel Strategy & Media Plan

   • Select channels based on audience presence, objective fit, and budget constraints
   • For each channel, define:
     • Targeting parameters
     • Ad formats and placements
     • Messaging variation (adapt core message to channel context)
     • Budget and schedule
     • Expected performance (impressions, clicks, conversions, CPA)
   • Sequence touchpoints across channels (awareness channels fire first, retargeting follows)
   • Design the cross-channel frequency cap strategy

4. UTM & Tracking Setup

   • Build the UTM taxonomy for this campaign:
     • utm_source: Platform (google, facebook, linkedin, email, etc.)
     • utm_medium: Channel type (cpc, social, email, display, etc.)
     • utm_campaign: Campaign name (standardized naming convention)
     • utm_term: Keyword or targeting (for paid search, audience segment)
     • utm_content: Creative variant (ad-a, ad-b, hero-video, etc.)
   • Generate all campaign URLs with UTMs applied
   • Verify tracking pixels and conversion events are configured
   • Test the full tracking chain before launch

5. Launch Checklist

   • Creative assets approved and uploaded
   • Landing pages live and tested (load speed, mobile, forms, tracking)
   • UTM links verified and click-tested
   • Conversion tracking confirmed with test conversions
   • Budget and schedules set correctly in all platforms
   • Team roles and escalation paths defined
   • Monitoring dashboard set up with real-time KPIs

6. In-Flight Optimization

   • Define the check-in cadence (daily for first week, then weekly)
   • Set optimization triggers and rules (when to pause, scale, or shift)
   • A/B test creative and messaging variations
   • Monitor for ad fatigue, audience saturation, and competitive interference
   • Execute budget reallocation based on pre-defined triggers

7. Post-Mortem & Learning Extraction

   • Performance vs. target for every KPI
   • Channel-by-channel contribution analysis
   • Creative performance ranking
   • Audience segment performance
   • What worked, what didn't, and why
   • Specific recommendations for the next campaign
   • Updated benchmarks for future budget allocation

Edge Cases

Minimal Budget (<$1K/month)

• Situation: Very limited paid media budget, often a startup or small business
• Approach: Do NOT spread thin across many channels. Recommend concentrating 100% of paid budget on a single highest-potential channel. Supplement with zero-cost tactics (organic social, community, content, email to existing list). Design the campaign to maximize learning per dollar. Set expectations clearly: at this budget level, the goal is validated learning, not scale. Recommend the campai
