When you give AI a general “write me a landing page” prompt, you’ll probably get 500 or so words you can’t use. </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> When you ask it to produce a specific section, you’ll get more than you need. This is good because it gives you the chance to narrow it down and focus on the good stuff.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> Take your time with your first prompt and try to get it as close as possible to what you want. That way, you’ll be able to rattle through the rest of the sections and it’ll produce copy in the right tone and detail.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> Break the copy you want to write with AI into bitesize chunks and you’ll get results that you can actually use and don’t need to edit all that much.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> Here’s what we got for the Brewbacca coffee: </p></div><div style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:20px;"><img alt="" style="margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:100%;" src="https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/01449338-5385-44cd-8999-fa49f5ca35eb/Example10.png?t=1717078526"/></div><div id="try-out-different-prompts" style="padding-bottom:4px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:16px;"><h2 style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Lora',Palatino,'Book Antiqua',Georgia,serif;font-size:24px;font-weight:Bold;line-height:36px;margin:0;text-align:left;">Try out different prompts</h2></div><div style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:20px;"><img alt="" style="margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:100%;" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/_NBh_-isC93XgK8G8yyzRk4Ia7_e57X-6qTb5Ts_v3NcDfJxieZthUX8QrddXLYtKnjI4if-fPRBuDaIG1uG7GTBRLaiULP7qQmVF0fCX4lzc108GHP8rrITNnUmaMuR9HSBJkp2V6_PvY8rhfUSiaY"/></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"><span style=""><b>Don’t be afraid to get creative with your prompts so that you can see the different results it produces. </b></span></p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> There’s no one way to write with AI. There are undoubtedly better ways of doing things but it’s a new thing and I’m always finding new ways to get better results.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> When you’re writing your prompts, try out different things.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> Say you’re not quite sure what tone you’re looking to use, try getting AI to mimic celebrities. Try it out with celebrities that have distinct speaking styles like Arnie or Christopher Walken or Trump. You don’t need to like them or agree with them but the results might help you strike gold.  </p></div><div style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:20px;"><img alt="" style="margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:100%;" src="https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/93d1ca64-c046-4d9f-9cc7-dcbccccb124b/Example4.png?t=1717072630"/></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> Here’s what Walken had to say: </p></div><div style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:20px;"><img alt="" style="margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:100%;" src="https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/55d391ba-7432-412c-a5a9-b1b8a512a5d3/Example15.png?t=1717079435"/></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> The more you use it, the more you’ll get results that don’t suck. There’s a shit tonne of advice out there with “46,000+ prompts you can use to get ChatGPT to produce your magnum opus” and they might work but who’s got the time for that?  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> In my experience, you can’t go wrong with treating your AI like a very talented but clueless assistant. Talk to it like a person and give it specific prompts and if something’s not quite right, try a slightly different approach. It’ll catch on pretty quickly.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> Whatever prompts you use, you’re never going to get copy from AI that you can just copy and paste onto your website. It’ll only ever be 60-80% of the way there, even if you follow all the tips we’ve gone through. But it’ll do the legwork for you and then you can edit it to add your brand’s personality and your expertise.  </p></div><style> p span[style*="font-size"] { line-height: 1.6; } </style><div style="padding-bottom:12px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:12px;"><p style="color:#1c354f;color:var(--wt-text-on-background-color) !important;font-family:'Space Grotesk',sans-serif;font-size:16px;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"><b>Final tip — Remember to always say please and thank you to your AI — you know, just in case.</b></p></div><div style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:20px;"><img alt="" style="margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:100%;" src="https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/06c07eb4-fcec-475d-a581-4f8719aeeaf8/Untitled_design.gif?t=1717076470"/></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
