When creating a prompt for using ChatGPT, follow these basic guidelines:

Guidelines

1. Define the Objective: Clearly state the goal of the prompt.

2. Specify Requirements: Explicitly mention what you need.

3. Be Clear and Concise: Use straightforward and precise language.

4. Provide Examples: Include relevant examples to illustrate your point.

5. Include Constraints: Mention any limitations or specific conditions.

Example Prompt

"You are a social media expert at creating engaging content. Create a social media post for my Facebook group that promotes [INSERT PRODUCT]. The benefits of my product are [INSERT 1], [INSERT 2], [INSERT 3]. Ensure the post is no more than 150 words, includes an engaging call to action to click on the link, and does not include hashtags."

Tips

- Provide Detailed Input: The more you explain about your product, the better the output will be. Avoid being too general.

- Revise as Needed: You will likely need to revise a few times. This above is your main prompt, then you list revisions.

- Standardize Successful Formats: Once you find a post format you like, inform the AI that this is the format you want for future posts.
