This is a collection of ready-made ChatGPT prompts for the most common writing tasks: social media posts, articles and blogs, emails, sales copy, and editing. Each prompt is a separate block: copy it, replace the square brackets with your topic, and send it to ChatGPT in GPTunneL. But first, a quick look at what makes a good prompt — so you can use the templates deliberately, not blindly.
How to Write a Prompt for ChatGPT
Compare two requests. "Write an article about fitness" — and the model returns generic phrases about the benefits of exercise. "Act as a fitness coach with 10 years of experience. Write a 500-word article for office workers aged 30–40 on how to start exercising without hurting their back" — and you get a concrete plan with exercises.
The difference is in the details. A good prompt works like a creative brief and answers five questions:
- Role — whose voice to write in: "Act as an experienced copywriter"
- Format — what exactly you need: an article, a post, an email, a product description
- Audience — who it's for: "for e-commerce entrepreneurs"
- Length and tone — "300–400 words, friendly but professional"
- Key points — what must be included and what to avoid
All of this adds up to a universal formula — it's the backbone of most templates below:
Act as [role]. Write [format] about [topic] for [audience]. Length: [word count]. Tone: [tone]. Must include: [key points]. Avoid: [what to avoid].

Ready-Made Prompts for Social Media Posts
The most frequent task. The key in a social post prompt is setting the platform, the length, and the opening line — that first sentence decides whether anyone reads on.
Expert post:
Act as a social media specialist. Write a post for a Telegram channel about [topic]. Start with a hook sentence, no greetings. 100–150 words, conversational tone, one takeaway at the end. No hashtags or emojis.
Engagement post with a question:
Write a question post for [platform] about [topic]. Start with a short personal story in 2–3 sentences, then ask the audience an open question. Offer 3 possible answers to make commenting easier.
Storytelling:
Write a story post about [situation]. Structure: a setup with a problem, 2–3 obstacles, an unexpected turn, a lesson learned. Up to 200 words, first person, short sentences.
Post series:
Create a series of 5 connected posts on [topic]. Each post covers one aspect and ends with a teaser for the next. For each, give a headline and 80–120 words of text.
Reels or Shorts script:
Write a script for a 30-second vertical video about [topic]. Format: a hook in the first 3 seconds, 3 key points, a call to subscribe. Provide the voiceover text and a visual idea for each point.
Monthly content plan:
Create a monthly content plan for [type of business] on [platform]. Audience: [description]. Give 20 post topics; for each, specify the format — educational, entertaining, selling, or engaging — and one sentence about the content.
Adapting one post for different platforms:
Adapt this post for three platforms: [paste text]. For LinkedIn — professional, focused on expertise; for X — concise and punchy; for Instagram — emotional, with room for a visual.
Prompts for Articles and Blogs
For long-form texts, the rule is "skeleton first, meat later": ask for an outline, approve it, then generate sections one by one — it's much easier to control quality that way.
Article outline:
Create an outline for an article on [topic]. Give 5–7 H2 subheadings with 2–3 key points each. Separately, suggest 3 headline options: informational, provocative, and one with a number.
Full article:
Write an article on [topic] for [audience]. Structure: an introduction framing the problem, 3–4 sections with subheadings, a practical example in each, a conclusion with takeaways. 800–1,000 words, expert but plain tone.
Step-by-step guide:
Write a step-by-step guide to [task]. Each step is a subheading explaining what to do and why. Add a "Common mistakes" section and a checklist at the end.
Comparison review:
Compare [product A] and [product B] by these criteria: features, price, ease of use, support. Build a comparison table and conclude with who each option suits. No marketing clichés.
Case study:
Describe a case study of [company or project] using this structure: starting situation, the challenge, what was done, results with numbers. 500–600 words, dry and to the point, as if for a business publication.
Opinion column:
Act as a [profession] with 10 years of experience. Write an opinion column about [trend or event]. My position: [position]. Back it with 3 arguments and one counterargument that you address honestly.
SEO article:
Write an SEO article targeting the query "[key phrase]". Use the query in the headline, the first paragraph, and 2–3 subheadings — naturally, without stuffing. Add an FAQ block with 4 questions people actually ask about this topic.
Prompts for Emails and Newsletters
In emails, ChatGPT most often overdoes the enthusiasm. The cure is a strict word limit and an explicit ban on corporate jargon and exclamation marks.
Welcome email:
Write a welcome email for new subscribers of [project]. Explain what emails they'll get and how often, and give one useful resource right away. Up to 150 words, friendly, no fluff.
Product announcement:
Write an email about the launch of [product]. Give 5 subject line options — curiosity without clickbait. Structure: an intriguing opening, value for the reader, a time limit, one clear call to action.
Win-back email:
Write an email for subscribers who haven't opened the newsletter in 3 months. Acknowledge the pause honestly, remind them of the value, offer a reason to come back. Light tone, no pressure or guilt.
Cold email:
Write a cold email to a [job title] at a [type of company]. The offer: [essence]. Maximum 120 words: one sentence about who we are, a concrete benefit with a number, a question at the end instead of a hard sell.
Business email:
Write a business email: [situation]. Recipient: [who]. Goal: [what you need to achieve]. Polite but firm tone, no bureaucratic language. Add a short subject line.
Email sequence:
Create a sequence of 4 emails for [goal: warm-up, onboarding, or sales]. For each email: subject line, goal, content outline, and call to action. 2–3 days between emails.
Prompts for Sales Copy
Sales copy without specifics doesn't sell. That's why these templates enforce a rigid structure: the customer's pain, the solution, benefits with numbers, and a single call to action.
Sales copy with a classic formula:
Write sales copy for [product]. Audience: [description]. Structure: a hook headline, the customer's pain, the solution, 3 benefits with specifics, social proof, a call to action. Persuasive but not pushy.
Landing page copy:
Write copy for a landing page for [product]: a headline and subheadline for the hero section, 4 benefit blocks (a heading plus 2 sentences), a 3-step "how it works" block, and 3 button text options.
Product listing:
Create a product page description for [name] on an e-commerce marketplace. Lead with the main benefit. Structure: a 2–3 sentence description, a feature list, usage scenarios. Address 2 common buyer objections.
Search ads:
Write 5 ad variations for search advertising for [product]. Headline up to 56 characters, description up to 81. Each must include a number or a concrete benefit; never use the word "best".
Value proposition options:
Formulate 5 unique value propositions for [business]. Audience: [description]. Competitors win on [what]. Each proposition is one sentence with verifiable specifics.
Promo for stories:
Write promo copy for a campaign: [offer]. 3 story frames: an intrigue, the offer with a deadline, a call to action. Maximum 15 words per frame.
Prompts for Editing and Improving Text
ChatGPT isn't just for generating from scratch — it's also a fast editor. These prompts work with text you already have: paste it in place of the brackets.
Cut without losses:
Cut this text in half while keeping every fact and the logic: [text]. Remove filler words, jargon, and repetition. Show a list of exactly what you cut.
Simplify:
Rewrite this text for someone with no specialist knowledge: [text]. Replace terms with clear analogies, break up long sentences. Complexity level: a popular magazine article.
Change the tone:
Rewrite this text in a [friendly / business / expert] tone: [text]. Don't change the meaning or the facts. Give 2 versions with different levels of formality.
Tough editor review:
Act as a demanding editor. Review this text: [text]. Find weak arguments, clichés, logical gaps, and places where the reader will get bored. Give a list of fixes in order of importance.
Headlines:
Come up with 10 headlines for this text: [text]. Two in each style: with a number, with a question, with intrigue, with a benefit, with a negation. No clickbait, up to 60 characters.
Proofreading:
Proofread this text: fix spelling, punctuation, and grammar, but don't change the style or structure: [text]. Output the corrected text and, as a separate list, every change you made.
How to Adapt These Prompts
A template is a starting point, not dogma. A few techniques that make any prompt from this collection noticeably stronger:
- Fill every bracket with specifics. "For entrepreneurs" is weaker than "for coffee shop owners in big cities". The narrower the audience, the sharper the text.
- Show a sample. Add to the end of the prompt: "Here's an example of the style I need: [sample]" — the model will copy the rhythm and voice better than any description.
- Ask for options. "Give me 3 headline versions" is faster than three separate requests, and you always have something to choose from.
- Refine iteratively. Don't rewrite the prompt from scratch if the result is almost right: "rewrite the second paragraph with more emotion", "add an example to the benefits section".
- Save what works. A prompt that worked on one task will almost always work on a similar one — build your personal library.
And always check the facts: a language model writes confidently even when it's wrong. Verify numbers, names, and dates in anything important.
FAQ
Which ChatGPT version is best for writing?
The current flagship is GPT-5.6: it holds style better, produces less filler, and handles long prompts with multiple conditions. In GPTunneL, GPT-5.6 is available in chat alongside the other versions — you can start with a cheaper model and switch up if you need more quality.
Will these prompts work with other AI models?
Yes. The "role — format — audience — length — tone" structure is universal: the templates work in Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and other models. In GPTunneL they all live in one interface, so you can run the same prompt through several models and compare the results.
How do I get original text instead of generic output?
Add what nobody else has: your numbers, cases, observations, an unusual angle. "Write about the benefits of exercise" produces a cliché, while "explain how a morning run helps programmers solve hard problems" is already more interesting. Originality comes from details only you know.
Can one prompt produce a whole article?
Technically yes, but quality is higher when you work in parts: outline first, then sections one by one, then the introduction and conclusion. It's easier to correct course along the way than to rewrite a finished long-read.
Are there ready-made prompts for images?
That's a separate discipline — scene, lighting, and style descriptions matter there, not text structure. Start with the image models page: current models and what they can do.
You can put these prompts to work right now: open ChatGPT in GPTunneL — every current version up to GPT-5.6, no subscriptions, one balance for all AI models, and you pay only for what you use. Copy any template, plug in your topic — and your first draft is a minute away.
