How the library works
Every prompt has three parts: the copy-paste text, one line on when to use it, and [blanks in cerise] you fill with your own details. Set your custom instructions first (Lesson 2) so these already come out in your voice. Nothing here is filler — if a prompt didn't earn its place, it isn't here.
01 Product & shop 10 PROMPTS
Listings that sell without sounding like a robot wrote them. Prompts 1–10.
1 · Product description from bullet points
Turn a few facts into a listing that actually converts.
Here are the facts about my product: [bullet points: what it is, materials, size, who it's for]. Write a product description in my voice. Give me 3 options at different lengths (short/medium/long), each led by the benefit to the buyer, not a list of features. No hype words, no exclamation points.
2 · Title & keyword variations
Better searchability without keyword-stuffing.
My product is [product] for [who]. Give me 10 title options for my [Etsy/Shopify/marketplace] listing that a real buyer might type into search — mix specific and broad. For each, note the main keyword it targets. Keep them readable, not stuffed.
3 · Pricing sanity-check
Before you publish a number you second-guess.
I'm thinking of pricing [product] at $[X]. My costs are roughly [materials + time] and my customers are [who]. Ask me 5 sharp questions to pressure-test this price, then tell me what the answers suggest — is it too low, about right, or leaving money on the table?
4 · FAQ from a product spec
Answer objections before they cost you a sale.
Here's everything about my product: [paste spec/details]. Write the 8 questions a first-time buyer would actually ask before purchasing — including the slightly awkward ones about shipping, sizing, and returns — with a clear, honest answer to each in my voice.
5 · Listing critique as a first-time buyer
Fresh eyes on a listing you're too close to.
Here's my product listing: [paste title + description]. Read it as a first-time buyer who's never heard of me. What's confusing, what's missing, and what makes you hesitate to buy? Then give me the single most important fix, with a rewritten example.
6 · Bundle & upsell ideas
Raise order value without adding new products.
My products are: [list a few with prices]. Suggest 5 bundles or add-ons that would feel natural to my customer ([who they are]), each with a name, what's included, a suggested price, and one line on why it makes sense to buy together.
7 · Variant & option namer
When "Option A / Option B" is leaving personality on the table.
I have [product] in these variations: [colors/scents/sizes]. Give me evocative but clear names for each that fit my brand ([vibe in 3 words]). Keep them short enough for a dropdown; skip anything too cute to understand.
8 · Care card / how-to-use insert
The little printed card that makes you look pro.
Write a short care-and-use card for [product]: how to use it, how to make it last, and one warm sign-off from me. Keep it under [80] words so it fits on a small insert. My voice.
9 · Collection / category blurb
The little paragraph atop a shop section.
Write a 2–3 sentence intro for my [collection name] collection, which includes [what's in it] for [who/occasion]. Warm, specific, sets the mood without overselling. Give me 3 options.
10 · Photo captions & alt text
Accessibility and SEO in one small habit.
For this product photo of [describe the image], write: (1) a short on-site caption, and (2) descriptive alt text for accessibility and search that names the product and key details plainly. No keyword stuffing.
02 Marketing 12 PROMPTS
A week of content from one good idea. Prompts 11–22.
11 · 30 content ideas from one product
Never stare at a blank content calendar again.
My product is [product] and my audience is [who + what they care about]. Give me 30 content ideas about it — a mix of behind-the-scenes, educational, story, and gentle-sell. Group them by type and give each a one-line hook, not just a topic.
12 · One caption, three tones
Find the right energy before you post.
Write an Instagram caption for [what you're posting] three ways: (1) warm and personal, (2) short and punchy, (3) educational/tip-led. Same core message, my voice, no hashtags yet. I'll pick a direction and we'll refine it.
13 · Pinterest pin titles + descriptions
Pins that get found and clicked.
I'm making pins for [blog post/product/freebie]. Give me 5 pin title + description pairs: titles curiosity-driven but clear, descriptions naturally including terms someone would search for [topic]. End each description with a soft call to action.
14 · Email subject lines with reasons
Higher open rates, and you learn why.
My email is about [topic/offer] going to [who]. Give me 10 subject lines across different angles (curiosity, benefit, urgency, personal). For each, one line on why it might work and who it's best for. No clickbait I'd have to apologize for.
15 · Repurpose a blog post into a carousel
One post, a whole Instagram carousel.
Turn this blog post into a 7–8 slide Instagram carousel: [paste post]. Slide 1 is a scroll-stopping hook, the middle slides are one idea each in plain language, the last slide is a gentle CTA to [link/offer]. Give me the text for each slide.
16 · A week of posts, planned
Batch your content in one sitting.
Plan a week of content ([5] posts) for [platform] around this theme: [theme/launch/season]. For each day give me the format, the hook, and a one-line summary — balanced so I'm not selling every single day. I'll pick my favorites to write out.
17 · The hook writer
The first line decides whether anyone reads the rest.
My post is about [topic]. Write me 10 opening lines that would stop a scroll — mix curiosity, a bold statement, a relatable moment, and a question. Keep them honest to the content; no bait I can't deliver on.
18 · Short-video / Reel script
A 20–30 second script you can actually film.
Write a 30-second Reel script about [topic/product] for [audience]. Give me: the on-screen hook (first 2 seconds), what I say or show beat by beat, and an on-screen caption for each beat. Casual and real, not an ad read.
19 · Launch announcement, three temperatures
Match the energy to the moment.
Draft my launch announcement for [offer] three ways: (1) quiet confidence, (2) warm excitement, (3) direct and salesy. Same facts, ~150 words each, my voice. I'll tell you which temperature is right, then we polish that one.
20 · Hashtag & keyword set
Findability without the spammy pile of 30 tags.
For a post about [topic] aimed at [audience], suggest a tight set of hashtags/keywords grouped into: broad, niche, and community/branded. Explain the logic in one line so I can reuse it. (I'll sanity-check that they're still relevant before posting.)
21 · Collab / DM outreach
Reach out without sounding like a copy-paste pitch.
I want to reach out to [person/brand] about [collab idea]. Write a short, warm DM that shows I actually know their work, makes one specific ask, and is easy to say yes to. Under 80 words. Give me a slightly more formal email version too.
22 · Repurpose one post five ways
Squeeze maximum mileage from your best content.
Here's a piece I wrote: [paste]. Repurpose it into: (1) an email, (2) an Instagram caption, (3) a Pinterest pin, (4) a short-video hook, and (5) three one-line quotes for graphics. Keep my voice; change the shape, not the substance.
03 Email & customers 10 PROMPTS
The messages that keep customers — even the hard ones. Prompts 23–32.
23 · Warm welcome email
The most-read email you'll ever send.
Write my welcome email for someone who just joined via [freebie/newsletter/purchase]. Warm and personal, one short line about why this exists, what to expect from me, and one simple next step. Under 200 words, my voice.
24 · The angry-but-wrong customer
Defuse without conceding a point you shouldn't.
A customer sent this upset message: [paste]. They're mistaken about [what's actually true]. Write a reply that stays calm and kind, acknowledges their frustration, gently corrects the facts, and offers [a fair resolution]. Firm but warm — I want to keep them if I can.
25 · Refund with grace
Turn a refund into loyalty.
A customer wants a refund for [situation]. I'm granting it. Write the email: take responsibility without groveling, confirm the refund clearly, keep the door open, and offer [a small gesture, or "nothing extra"]. Under 120 words, my voice.
26 · Win-back note
For a past customer who's gone quiet.
Write a short win-back email to past customers who haven't ordered in [timeframe]. No guilt, no desperation — a genuine "here's what's new / we've missed you" with one reason to come back ([new product/offer]). My voice, under 150 words.
27 · Testimonial request that doesn't beg
Make it easy to say yes.
Write a friendly message asking a happy customer ([name/context]) for a testimonial. Make it low-pressure and easy: give them 2–3 specific prompt questions to answer so they don't face a blank page, and reassure them a sentence or two is plenty.
28 · Shipping delay / bad-news email
Get ahead of a problem before they email you.
I need to tell customers about [delay/issue]. Write a proactive email that's honest about what happened, clear about what it means for them and when it'll be resolved, and takes ownership without over-apologizing. Offer [what you can do, or nothing]. My voice.
29 · Abandoned-cart nudge
A gentle reminder that doesn't feel pushy.
Write a short abandoned-cart email for someone who left [product] behind. Helpful, not naggy: remind them what they liked, answer the most likely hesitation, and make checkout feel easy. One soft CTA. Give me a subject line too.
30 · Post-purchase thank-you
The email that turns a buyer into a fan.
Write a thank-you email that goes out after someone buys [product]. Genuine gratitude, one helpful tip for getting the most out of it, and a warm invitation to reply if they need anything. No upsell this time. My voice, under 150 words.
31 · The graceful "no"
Boundaries without burning bridges.
Help me decline [request — discount, collab, custom work] from [who]. Kind but clear, no over-apologizing, no fake "maybe later" unless I mean it. Offer an alternative only if one genuinely exists: [alternative or "none"].
32 · Re-engage a cold list
Wake up subscribers who've forgotten you.
Write a re-engagement email for subscribers who haven't opened in a while. Lead with something genuinely useful (not "we miss you"), remind them what they signed up for, and invite them to stay or gracefully opt out. Warm, honest, under 150 words.
04 Business brain 10 PROMPTS
A thinking partner that pushes back instead of cheerleading. Prompts 33–42.
33 · Talk me out of it (or into it)
Shiny new idea at 11pm.
New idea: [idea]. What's already on my plate: [current commitments]. Interrogate me — is this a real opportunity or a procrastination costume? Ask 5 hard questions one at a time, then give your honest verdict: pursue now, park with a date, or drop.
34 · SWOT as a tough consultant
An honest read on a plan you're excited about.
Act as a blunt but fair consultant. Here's my plan: [paste]. Give me a real SWOT — strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats — specific to my situation, not generic. Then tell me the one weakness I'm most likely underestimating.
35 · Explain this clause simply
A contract or policy you half-understand. (Triage, not legal advice.)
Explain this clause in plain English — what it means for me, what I'm agreeing to, and anything that could cost me money or rights: [paste clause]. Then give me the smart questions to ask about it. Flag anything that genuinely deserves a real lawyer's eyes; I understand this isn't legal advice.
36 · Weekly priorities from a brain-dump
Sunday-night brain, turned into a plan.
Here's everything on my mind, unfiltered: [dump it all — long is fine]. Sort it into: what's genuinely urgent, what's important but not urgent, what's just anxiety wearing a to-do list costume, and a realistic top 3 for this week given I have [hours].
37 · Stress-test my offer
Before you publish the price or the promise.
I'm planning to offer [offer + price] to [who]. Stress-test it: is the promise clear, is the price right for that audience, what objections will come up, and what would need to be true for this to really work? Be specific, and tell me the riskiest assumption.
38 · Pre-mortem my launch
Two weeks before anything important goes live.
It's three months from now and my [launch/project] flopped. Write the honest story of why — the 5 most plausible failure causes, specific to my plan: [paste plan]. For each, give an early warning sign and the cheap thing I could do this week to prevent it.
39 · Decision matrix for a fuzzy choice
Two-plus options, brain going in circles.
I'm deciding between [options]. First, ask me a few questions to find out what actually matters to me here (don't assume). Then build a simple weighted matrix from MY criteria, score the options, and tell me what it says — plus whether you'd overrule it and why.
40 · Competitor teardown
Learn from a competitor without copying them.
Here's a competitor's [sales page / listing / offer]: [paste text]. As a strategist: what are they doing well, where are the gaps, and what could I do differently that plays to my strengths ([what makes you different])? Don't tell me to imitate — tell me how to stand apart.
41 · The energy audit
When the business works but you're fried.
Here's how I spend my working week: [list tasks + rough hours]. Which tasks should I eliminate, automate, batch, or delegate first — judged by energy cost versus business value? Be specific about what "automate" would actually look like for each one.
42 · Quarterly review interview
Every 90 days. Put it on the calendar.
Run my quarterly business review as an interview — one question at a time — about what worked, what didn't, what I avoided, what surprised me, and what my numbers say [paste any figures]. Then write a one-page summary with my 3 priorities for next quarter.

Protecting the way you sound — the asset AI most easily flattens. Prompts 43–52.
43 · Outline first, draft second
For anything long enough to get lost in.
I'm writing [piece] for [audience] to accomplish [goal]. Give me 3 possible outlines with different angles. I'll pick one — then draft it section by section, checking in with me after each section instead of dumping the whole thing.
44 · Edit my draft — tighten, don't rewrite
When the piece is written but not done.
This draft is 80% there: [paste]. Don't rewrite it or change my voice. Tighten flabby sentences, fix the transitions, strengthen the opening and closing, and cut anything repeated. Show me a list of the changes you made so I can accept or reject each.
45 · Headline options, ranked
When you can't tell which title is best.
Give me 10 headline options for [piece/offer] aimed at [audience]. Then rank them two ways — by curiosity and by clarity — and tell me which one you'd bet on and why. Flag any that overpromise.
46 · Build my voice guide from 3 samples
Do this once; reuse it forever.
Here are 3 samples of my writing: [paste]. Write a voice guide someone could imitate me from: sentence rhythm, how I open and close, words I actually use, punctuation habits, humor, and what I never do. End with 5 rules titled "How to write as [name]." I'll save this and paste it when I want you to match me.
47 · Make it sound less like AI
The de-robotifier. Run before publishing anything.
This sounds AI-written: [paste]. Fix it: cut the em-dash pileups, the "in today's fast-paced world" openers, the rule-of-three sentences, the "it's not just X, it's Y" tic, and any word I'd never say out loud. Make it sound like one specific person wrote it on a Tuesday.
48 · De-jargon this
For anything a smart friend outside your field couldn't follow.
De-jargon this for a smart reader outside my industry: [paste]. Swap insider terms for plain language (or a 5-word explanation), cut the throat-clearing, keep my tone. Aim for an 8th-grade reading level — clarify the ideas, don't dumb them down.
49 · Blog post via interview
A post that sounds like you actually lived it.
Interview me about [topic] like a magazine journalist — one question at a time, 6–8 questions, push past my vague answers. Then write a [700-word] blog post from my answers, using my words and stories wherever possible.
50 · Long into short
Shrink a big piece into a small one without losing the soul.
Here's a long piece: [paste]. Cut it down to [a 100-word summary / a 5-bullet takeaway / a single paragraph] that keeps the most important point and my voice. Tell me what you cut so I can check nothing vital was lost.
51 · Proofread & explain the fixes
Catch errors and actually learn from them.
Proofread this for spelling, grammar, and clarity: [paste]. Don't change my voice or style. Give me the corrected version, then a short list of the recurring mistakes so I can stop making them.
52 · Voice check before publishing
The last gate before anything goes out.
Check this against my voice guide: [paste final draft]. Score it out of 10 for sounding like me. List any sentence that fails and why. If it's an 8 or higher, just say "ship it" — don't invent problems to look useful.
06 Life admin 8 PROMPTS
Because running a business is only half your life. Prompts 53–60.
53 · Meal plan around what's in the fridge
Dinner solved without a grocery run.

54 · Trip itinerary with constraints
Plan a trip without 40 browser tabs.
Plan a [length] trip to [place] for [who]. Constraints: budget [$], we love [interests], we want to avoid [what]. Give me a day-by-day outline, not a novel. (I'll double-check hours, prices, and bookings myself — you might be out of date.)
55 · Gift ideas that don't feel generic
For the person who "doesn't want anything."
Help me find a gift for [who + your relationship]. They're into [interests], my budget is [$], and I want to avoid the obvious/generic. Give me 8 ideas across price points, each with one line on why it fits them specifically.
56 · The awkward personal message
The text you've been avoiding drafting.

57 · Explain it to my kid
When "why?" has stumped you.
Explain [topic] to a [age]-year-old in a way that's accurate but simple, using an everyday comparison they'd get. Then give me one follow-up question I could ask them to see if it landed.
58 · Declutter / organize plan
When a space or system is overwhelming you.
I want to organize [space/area/digital mess] but I keep stalling. Give me a step-by-step plan broken into [20-minute] chunks I can do over a few days, starting with the one that creates the most visible relief first.
59 · Appointment / call prep
Walk in knowing what to ask.
I have a [doctor / accountant / school / service] appointment about [topic]. Give me the smart questions to ask so I don't leave wishing I'd asked something, plus what info I should bring. Keep it to the essentials.
60 · Brain-dump into a to-do list
Personal-life version of the Sunday-night sort.
Here's everything swirling in my head about home/life right now: [dump it all]. Organize it into a clear to-do list grouped by area ([home, kids, health, errands]), flag the 3 things that genuinely can't wait, and tell me what I can safely let go of this week.
