Get the Prompt Pack →1. Ten headline options
Give me 10 headline options for [PRODUCT / ARTICLE / EMAIL] aimed at [AUDIENCE]. Mix curiosity, benefit-driven, and plain-descriptive styles. Keep each under 12 words, and star the 3 you'd bet on.
Tip: The 'star the 3' line gives you an instant shortlist.
2. Turn a feature into a benefit
Here's a feature of my product: [FEATURE]. Rewrite it as a customer benefit that answers 'what's in it for me?' Give me 3 versions at different levels of punchiness.
Tip: The classic 'so what?' test, automated.
3. Ad copy variations to test
Write 5 short ad variations for [PRODUCT] on [PLATFORM]. Each should target a different motivation (save time, save money, status, fear of missing out, ease). Under 30 words each.
Tip: Different motivations beat different wordings when you A/B test.
4. A month of content ideas
I run [BUSINESS] for [AUDIENCE]. Give me 20 content ideas that would genuinely help them, grouped into 4 themes. Add a one-line angle to each so none are generic.
Tip: Reuse monthly; tell it to avoid last month's topics.
5. Repurpose one idea five ways
Take this core idea: [IDEA]. Turn it into (1) a short email, (2) a social post, (3) a one-line hook, (4) a FAQ answer, (5) a customer-facing headline.
Tip: One insight becomes a week of content.
6. Landing page skeleton
Draft the copy for a simple landing page for [OFFER], audience [WHO]. Include a headline, subhead, 3 benefit bullets, a short 'how it works', one objection-handler, and a CTA label.
Tip: Then paste it back and ask 'what's the weakest section?'
7. Customer-voice research
Act as [TARGET CUSTOMER]. I sell [PRODUCT]. In their own words, tell me: what problem sent them looking, what they're afraid of, and what would make them trust me. Be blunt.
Tip: Roleplay surfaces objections you're too close to see.
8. Social posts from a blog
Turn the article below into 3 short social posts for [PLATFORM]. Each should hook in the first line, give one real takeaway, and end with a soft CTA.
ARTICLE:
[PASTE]
Tip: Add 'no hashtags' or 'max one emoji' to control the vibe.
9. Kill the jargon
Rewrite this so a smart 15-year-old would get it, without losing accuracy. Cut the buzzwords.
[PASTE COPY]
Tip: If it's still stiff, add 'make it sound spoken, not written'.
10. Subject lines that get opened
Write 10 email subject lines for [EMAIL TOPIC] to [AUDIENCE]. Vary the angle: curiosity, benefit, urgency, and plain. Keep them under 45 characters so they don't get cut off on mobile.
Tip: Short subject lines win on phones — where most email is read.
