LocalMessages now incorporates AI generated messaging to help users save time writing and sending effective customer messages.
You can instruct OneLocal's AI to generate promotional SMS messages, product or service announcements, 'thank you' messages, educational messages, holiday greetings, and more by providing a few specific instructions.
To generate a message, you have the option of creating your own Custom Prompt or using our handy Prompt Builder.
Whether you are a business owner or an experienced digital marketer, writing detailed prompts is essential to creating compelling content which will resonate with your audience.
Writing effective prompts can be challenging because the quality of the output depends on the instructions’ specificity and clarity.
Below are a few tips and best practices for writing prompts to get the best results from AI.
What Is A Prompt?
A prompt is an instruction or discussion topic a user provides for AI to respond to.
The prompt can be a question or statement intended to spark creativity, reflection, or engagement. In LocalMessages, prompts are used to generate the different types of messages noted above.
Prompts are designed to be open-ended and can be customized based on the user’s preferences and perceived audience desires and action triggers.
How To Write Prompts For AI
Start by giving AI a writing prompt, such as “Write a promotional message about a limited time, 10% discount on service X.”
AI will then generate a response based on your prompt. Note: We have already provided some context to the AI including your industry, business location, and the fact the message will be sent via SMS. The generated answer may be a few sentences or several paragraphs long, depending on the prompt’s complexity and the level of detail you requested.
Use the AI-generated response as a starting point for your writing. You can take the ideas and concepts presented in the answer and expand on them, adding your own unique spin to the message.
Remember the answers you receive are generated by artificial intelligence and may not always be perfect or exactly what you want.
However, they can still be a great source of inspiration and help you start writing.
