About this exercise

Your small agency is publishing a blog post about planning a product launch. Write a prompt for exactly 4 numbered headline options, each containing the exact phrase "product launch plan", each 60 characters or fewer, with exactly one written as a question. Don't use the words ultimate, secrets or hacks, and don't promise a time like "in 5 minutes". Plain text, headlines only.

Common mistakes when you ask AI for this

  • Using clickbait words. The AI copies the competitor patterns. Try: Name the banned words: ultimate, secrets, hacks.
  • Dropping the exact keyword. The AI paraphrases to 'launch planning'. Try: Say: "Each contains the exact phrase product launch plan."
  • Question in every headline. The AI mixes question and statement unevenly. Try: Say: "Exactly one is a question."
  • Wrong number of items. AI adds extra items or drops the numbering. Try: Say the exact count and show the format, like "1. Label: detail".
  • Trusting the AI to count words. AI is bad at counting and often runs past a word limit. Try: Cap each part (for example "each line under 15 words") so the total lands well under the limit.

What a strong prompt includes

  • Sets count and numbering
  • Requires the exact phrase
  • Sets the character cap
  • Pins one question
  • Bans clickbait
