Return the answer in this format: 1. 3-email abandoned cart sequence 2. Subject lines for each email 3. A shorter SMS version for one touch Tone and style: conversion-aware and customer-friendly Ask me concise follow-up questions only if a missing detail would materially change the quality of the final answer.

This is a mock example only. Your result should change based on the variables, context, and constraints you provide.
What this prompt is designed to do
The structure of this prompt is meant to make the AI do more than generate a loose first pass. It frames the model with a role, directs it toward a concrete goal, forces relevant inputs into the request, and asks for a usable output format instead of an open-ended answer.
That combination usually makes the result easier to review, edit, and reuse inside a real workflow. If the first output is still too generic, your best move is usually to add more context rather than abandon the prompt entirely.
Category-specific guidance
- Use real customer reviews, product details, and store context whenever possible.
- Tell the model whether the goal is conversion, retention, AOV, or clarity.
- Ask for outputs in the exact format your team uses, such as briefs, bullets, or sequences.
- Review all final store copy for product accuracy and brand fit before publishing.
