About this skill

RMBC Copy Audit (Review-Pattern Transfer)

Purpose

Audit existing copy against the RMBC framework using a structured review process with severity triage, escalation gates, and actionable fix recommendations — modeled on code review methodology.

Inputs

Input Required Description
copy_text Yes The draft to audit (ad, VSL, email, landing page, advertorial)
copy_type No Format hint: ad, vsl, email, landing_page, advertorial. Default: auto-detect
context No Target audience, product, offer — improves Research scoring accuracy

Audit Checklists

Research Checklist (R: 0-25)

  • ICP identified with specificity (not "busy moms" but "DTC brand owners spending $50K+/mo on Meta")
  • Pain points are specific and emotionally resonant
  • Market awareness level matches audience sophistication
  • Language mirrors how the audience actually talks
  • Competitor landscape acknowledged (directly or implicitly)

Mechanism Checklist (M: 0-25)

  • Novel explanation of WHY the product works exists
  • Mechanism is specific (named, concrete, not vague science)
  • Mechanism is believable (doesn't oversell)
  • Mechanism differentiates from competitor claims
  • Mechanism connects cause to promised effect

Brief Checklist (B: 0-25)

  • Strategic angle is clear and singular (one big idea)
  • Angle matches audience awareness level
  • Offer positioning is explicit (what they get, what it costs, why now)
  • Competitive differentiation present
  • Emotional driver identified and leveraged

Copy Execution Checklist (C: 0-25)

  • Lead/hook stops the scroll (first 2 lines earn the next 2)
  • Proof elements present (specifics, testimonials, data)
  • CTA is clear, single, and urgent
  • Mobile-optimized (short paragraphs, scannable)
  • Specificity over vagueness throughout (numbers, names, outcomes)

Audit Severity Levels

Rewrite (Critical)

  • Missing mechanism entirely
  • Wrong audience awareness level (pitching unaware audience with product-aware copy)
  • No identifiable offer or CTA
  • Fundamental angle mismatch (selling features to problem-aware audience)

Major Fix (Warning)

  • Mechanism present but generic/unbelievable
  • Weak proof (claims without evidence)
  • Research gaps — pain points are assumed, not demonstrated
  • CTA buried or competing with multiple asks

Minor Fix (Suggestion)

  • Hook could be sharper
  • Specificity upgrades available (swap vague for concrete)
  • Flow/transition improvements
  • Mobile formatting issues

Audit Process

1. Gather Context

  • Identify copy type and format expectations
  • Note any provided audience/product context
  • Determine audience awareness level from the copy itself

2. Audit Against Checklists

  • Apply all four dimension checklists
  • Score each dimension 0-25 with specific evidence
  • Cite passages that demonstrate strength or weakness

3. Triage Findings by Severity

  • Assign each weakness: Rewrite / Major Fix / Minor Fix
  • Group by dimension
  • Escalation rule: 2+ Rewrite findings = recommend full rewrite before minor fixes

4. Generate Scorecard

  • Calculate total (0-100) and letter grade: A (85+), B (70-84), C (55-69), D (40-54), F (<40)
  • Top 3 recommendations ordered by severity then by weakest dimension
  • Reference specific passages and swipe file benchmarks where applicable

Output Format

## RMBC Copy Audit

**Copy type:** [detected or provided]
**Overall score:** [X]/100 — Grade: [letter]
**Severity summary:** [N] Rewrite | [N] Major Fix | [N] Minor Fix

### Dimension Scores

| Dimension | Score | Severity | Key Finding |
|-----------|-------|----------|-------------|
| R (Research) | [X]/25 | [highest severity] | [1-line summary] |
| M (Mechanism) | [X]/25 | [highest severity] | [1-line summary] |
| B (Brief) | [X]/25 | [highest severity] | [1-line summary] |
| C (Copy) | [X]/25 | [highest severity] | [1-line summary] |

### Findings

**Rewrite (if any):**
- [Dimension]: [Specific issue with passage quote] -> [What to do instead]

**Major Fix:**
- [Dimension]: [Specific issue with passage quote] -> [Actionable fix]

**Minor Fix:**
- [Dimension]: [Specific issue] -> [Quick upgrade]

### Top 3 Recommendations (Priority Order)

1. **[Severity] — [Dimension]:** [Concrete, one-pass fix]
2. **[Severity] — [Dimension]:** [Concrete, one-pass fix]
3. **[Severity] — [Dimension]:** [Concrete, one-pass fix]

Quality Criteria

  • Every finding cites specific text from the draft (quote or paraphrase)
  • Severity assignment is consistent (don't call a missing mechanism a "minor fix")
  • Recommendations are executable in one editing pass without further interpretation
  • Escalation gate enforced: if 2+ Rewrite findings, lead with "consider full rewrite" before listing minor fixes
  • Grade calibration matches reference benchmarks (see scoring rubric)
