The main things to keep in mind are clarity, specificity, and context.
Be clear about the kind of content you need and the audience it should serve. Provide your content generator with information on your message and specific elements of your campaign. Include relevant details about your brand and its followers, giving your generator context on what’s most likely to work for your audience.
Remember, your AI content results are only as good as the prompts you provide, so it’s worth learning how to make your prompts as effective and informative as possible.
What does this look like in action? Elaborating!
Instead of saying, “Write me a caption for a makeup advertisement video,” go deeper. Try “Write me an Instagram Reel caption for the cherry red matte lipstick, in a fun and flirty tone.”
This way, your system will know exactly what you need!
