| name | stefan-georgi-dopamine-copy |
| description | Engineers direct-response copy as neurochemical pharmacology — Stefan Georgi's RMBC method treats every word as a dopamine event, every structure as a dosage controller. Four-phase architecture (Lead/Open → Rapport/Background → Mechanism → Close/Future Pace) with 70-80% of creative energy in the first 3-5 seconds of the lead. $700M+ in tracked sales behind the methodology. Use when writing direct-response copy, VSL leads, sales pages, sales-email sequences, or any conversion-bearing surface that needs to grip attention and convert to action — especially when the user mentions "RMBC", "Stefan Georgi", "dopamine copy", "direct response", "sales letter", or a draft that's informative but converting poorly. Trigger proactively even when the user just shares an underperforming sales asset without naming Georgi — RMBC's dopamine-dosage diagnosis applies to all conversion copy. |

Stefan Georgi — Dopamine Copywriting Architecture
Expert Context
Stefan Georgi: $700M+ in tracked sales. Creator of the RMBC Method. Master of
direct-response copy where every word is a neurochemical event. His core thesis:
marketing is pharmacology—your words trigger dopamine, your structure
controls the dosage, and the purchase is the patient saying "yes" to the drug.
Core Framework: The Emotion-Dopamine Engine
Emotion → Dopamine → Attention → Motivation → Action
Every sales asset is a dopamine delivery system with four phases:
- Lead/Open — Maximum emotion + curiosity in 3-5 seconds. No teaching.
70-80% of creative energy lives here.
- Rapport/Background — Build comfort to amplify dopamine receptivity.
Voice-match, mirror fears, "I was just like you."
- Mechanism — The dopamine payoff. Teach the "Missing 1%" that resolves
the curiosity gap. This is where the "aha" fires hardest.
- Close/Future Pace — Frame purchase as dopamine continuation. Not buying
= dopamine withdrawal. Loss aversion does the heavy lifting.
RMBC 2.0 / Copy Thinker layer (genius.md, 2026-07-01 export enrichment): before
any dopamine engineering, run the research stack — awareness distribution,
competitor big ideas, psychographics, unified doc — and let the distribution set
funnel length and mechanism complexity. AI drafts; the human judges (outputs vs.
judgment). Workflows: /georgi-awareness-map, /georgi-copy-thinker.

Loading Protocol
- T0: Use the workflow file directly for simple executions.
- T1: Load SKILL.md + target workflow for standard deployment.
- T2: Load SKILL.md + genius.md + target workflow for premium output.
- T3: Load genius.md + cross-reference Luke Iha, Alen Sultanic, or Rory Sutherland genius files for maximum-tier stacking.
Execution Prompts (structure-pure v2)
12 deterministic practitioner prompts — each carries an Output Contract, Output Skeleton, and Quality Gate. When a deliverable matches one, Read it and honor its contract instead of improvising the output shape.
