The prompt is specific about timing (7 days), context (price), and incentive. The brevity request prevents over-explaining.
Example #10
Write a newsletter intro paragraph. This week's theme: "AI tools that actually save time." Tone: conversational, slightly witty. Tested 15 tools, found 3 worth using. Tease content without revealing all.
This week, I did something slightly unhinged: I tested 15 different AI marketing tools so you don't have to lose your sanity.
Spoiler: most are overhyped, overpriced, or just ChatGPT in a trench coat pretending to be something new.
But 3 of them? Actually game-changing.
We're talking "saved 4 hours this week and my content got better" territory.
Below, I'll break down which tools made the cut, what they're good for (and terrible at), and whether they're worth it.
Grab your coffee. Let's dive in. ☕
The prompt establishes tone ("like a smart friend"), context (15 tested, 3 recommended), and requests teasing without revealing. This creates curiosity.
Example #11
