    • It can be a question or statement designed to spark creativity, reflection, or engagement.
  2. Writing Effective Prompts:
    • Begin by giving AI a specific writing prompt, such as “Write a promotional message about a limited time, 10% discount on service X.”
    • Provide contextual details, including industry, target audience demographics, business location, and the intended mode of communication (e.g. SMS).
  3. AI-Generated Response:
    • AI will generate a response based on the provided prompt, offering ideas and concepts.
    • Use the AI-generated response as a foundation for crafting your final message, adding a personal touch or unique spin.
