What are the best AI prompts for marketing?
The best marketing prompts share four qualities: (1) Audience specificity — name the exact persona ("B2B SaaS buyer, VP of Engineering, 200-person company"). (2) Voice and tone constraints — "punchy, no jargon, active voice under 20 words per sentence". (3) Job-to-be-done framing — state what the copy must make the reader feel or do, not just describe the product. (4) Format spec — "three variants, each under 150 characters" prevents long-form filler. Prompts with all four produce usable first drafts rather than generic marketing speak.
How do I write a good AI prompt for ad copy?
A strong ad copy prompt includes: (1) the product in one sentence with the core differentiator, (2) the exact audience ("solo founders who have never run paid ads"), (3) the emotional trigger to hit (FOMO, aspiration, pain relief), (4) the platform and format constraints ("Google Search headline, max 30 chars"), and (5) a call to action. Add: "Output 5 variants. Flag which hook each uses." Variants let you A/B test without re-prompting.
How do I use Claude or ChatGPT for email marketing?
For email: give the AI the campaign goal ("re-engage users who haven't logged in for 30 days"), the segment ("paid users who churned at month 3"), the offer or hook ("their data is still there"), and the CTA ("one click to resume"). Ask for subject line + preview text + body as separate outputs. Then ask it to write 3 subject line variants and label each with the psychological principle it uses (curiosity gap, social proof, loss aversion). This structure cuts editing time by half.
What prompt template works best for social media content?
For social media, the most reliable template is: "Platform: [LinkedIn/Twitter/Instagram]. Audience: [specific persona]. Goal: [awareness/engagement/click]. Hook constraint: [question / bold claim / stat]. Body: 3 short paragraphs max. CTA: one sentence. Tone: [conversational/authoritative/playful]. Output 3 posts with different hooks, label each by hook type." The hook constraint is the most important part — it prevents the AI from starting with "In today's fast-paced world…" which no one reads.
How do I prompt AI to write product descriptions that convert?
High-converting product description prompts specify: (1) the primary benefit in customer language ("saves 3 hours a week"), not feature language ("automated scheduling"). (2) The objection to preempt ("works even if you're not technical"). (3) The format: benefit headline, 2-sentence hook, 3 bullet benefits, one social-proof line, CTA. (4) The reading level: "write at 8th grade level, no jargon." Add "do not use the words 'seamless', 'robust', or 'leverage'" to filter out AI filler words.
