ChatGPT Prompt Generator

Five prompt templates for the work side-hustlers actually do — marketing copy, niche research, content drafts, customer DMs, and product naming. Fill in the blanks and copy.

Your prompt — copy and paste into ChatGPT

You are a senior direct-response copywriter who has shipped winning ads for {industry}. Your job is to write {format} for {product}.

Voice: {voice_description}.
Audience: {audience}.
Pain point we're solving: {pain}.
Primary benefit: {benefit}.

Constraints:
- Lead with the pain, not the product
- One specific number in the first 2 sentences
- No corporate jargon (no "leverage", "robust", "seamless")
- Maximum {length} words

Output 3 distinct variations, each with a different angle (curiosity, urgency, social proof). Number them 1, 2, 3.

Why these specific prompt templates

J.R. tested about a hundred prompts in our internal benchmarking process. We kept the five that produced consistently usable output across multiple ChatGPT sessions, multiple users, and multiple input variations. Most prompt libraries on the internet are noisy — they include prompts that worked once for a single use case and were never pressure-tested.

How to get the most out of these

Be specific in the inputs. “Audience: parents” gets generic output. “Audience: parents of toddlers earning $90-150K who feel guilty every time they use a screen” gets sharper output. The model is only as specific as you let it be. The second tip: when you get the first response, follow up with “rewrite the third option in a more skeptical voice” or “add three more variations that lean contrarian.” The first response is rarely the best one.

What we don't include

Prompts that ask the model to simulate a famous person, prompts that try to bypass model guidelines, prompts that produce content best generated by a specialist tool (raw image generation, code completion). For those use cases, ChatGPT isn't the best tool anyway.
