List holiday hours for your business profile with the final changes
Practice: Keeping the AI to your sources. About 5 minutes.
About this exercise
You own Brightside Bagels and need to enter holiday hours in your online business profile. Write exactly 5 numbered lines, one per date from Dec 23 to Dec 27, in the shape Day, Date: hours or Closed. Use the owner's final changes, not the first plan, and reply with only the plain-text list.
Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Copying the first plan. The first plan is complete and easy to copy. Try: Add: "Use Rosa's Dec 10 final changes."
- Missing the reopened day. The AI keeps Dec 26 closed because the first plan says so. Try: Add: "Dec 26 is open 8am-1pm."
- No line shape. The AI writes a paragraph or table with bold dates. Try: Show it: "Tue, Dec 23: 6am-2pm."
- Extra lines. The AI adds normal hours and a holiday greeting. Try: Add: "Exactly 5 numbered lines, nothing else."
What a strong prompt includes
- Uses the final changes
- Sets the line shape
- Covers the date range
- Catches the reopened day
- Asks for only the list
