About this exercise
You own Wild Thistle Florist and want a 3-slide Instagram carousel for Mother's Day, made with ChatGPT images. Get Claude to write exactly 3 numbered prompts, plain text, under 210 words in total. Each prompt repeats the same style line word for word and says 4:5. Slide 1 is the peony bouquet, slide 2 the tulip box, slide 3 the mini succulent pot. Only slide 1 has text, exactly "ORDER BY MAY 8"; slides 2 and 3 say no text.
Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Rewording the style. Each prompt gets a different look, so the carousel doesn't feel like a set. Try: Add: "Repeat the same style line word for word in all 3."
- Mixing up products. The AI may pick the lily bouquet or merge products. Try: Add: "1 peony bouquet, 2 tulip box, 3 succulent pot."
- Text on every slide. The AI adds prices and the deadline everywhere, garbled. Try: Add: "Slide 1 text: ORDER BY MAY 8. Slides 2 and 3: no text."
- Not numbering the prompts. The AI writes headings like "Slide 1" in bold. Try: Add: "Exactly 3 numbered prompts, plain text."
What a strong prompt includes
- Asks for 3 prompts
- Repeats the style
- Sets the shape
- Controls the text
- Names the products in order
