AI In Copywriting...

I don't think Ogilvy would have been proud of that - it reads like copy-by-numbers. And after 300+ words, I still don't know if it's a pill, a lotion, a spray - or a correspondence course.

I have no doubt you could.

It's a good start, but yeah it needs refining.

You could do better - it covers the 'points' but it comes across as 'formula writing'.

Bilge-2-Puke.

I read this kinda stuff, an' I wanna punch out.

Speshly bcs this is zackly my kinda touch sweet areah.

*PRIMED TO STRANGLE*

Hey, yeah, plus always to heel.

Gotta figure the race to the bahtahm depends always on available morons.

You want I skip that step like I sum kinda elite cunt?

Ain't said nuthin' else here evah, far as I can figure.

It is mebbe like yr DAHG if'n you don't much like Princess Lahgic.

There are algorithms of SERVICE ...

an' algorithms of DEVOUR ...

hey but ima likely dun with this all soon.

Like ... why should I actschly cayurre?

Ok, this is going to be a long post.

I went back and reworked the prompt. It took a lot of back and forth, but, I think I came up with the best Gemini could do.

I'm still not completely happy with the way it writes because I prefer more of a conversational tone than what I could get it to do. But, I'll work on that.

Anyway...

here is the prompt outline I used:

Back Pain Vanishing Act: Your Ticket to a Life Without Limits

Finally, a Breakthrough Solution for Lasting Relief

Picture this: It's a gorgeous summer evening, the sky painted in those amazing oranges and purples as the sun sets. Sarah's on her porch swing, enjoying the gentle creaking, but there's a catch - a dull ache in her lower back that just won't quit. Her grandkids are running around the yard, chasing fireflies and giggling like crazy. It kinda breaks her heart, you know? Just a few years ago, she'd be right out there with them, feeling the joy of being carefree and active. But now, even a short walk is a struggle.

She's tried everything under the sun: doctors, pills, therapy... you name it. Heat pads, ice packs, even that fancy inversion table everyone's talking about. But the pain? It's always there, lurking in the background, ready to ruin her day.

And it's not just the physical pain, it's the emotional toll. Missing out on family camping trips, sitting on the sidelines at her granddaughter's dance recital... Even something as simple as bending down to give her grandkids a hug is an ordeal.

Back pain isn't just affecting her body; it's stealing her life. She'd give anything to feel that joy of movement again, to be the energetic grandma she used to be. But each day, that hope feels further and further away.

That Nagging Ache That Steals Your Joy

Sound familiar? You're not alone, friend. Millions of us are battling back pain every single day. It's like a thief in the night, stealing away the things we love most.

Weekend warriors stuck on the sidelines, missing out on the fun.

Desk jockeys struggling to focus, their productivity taking a hit.

Parents who can't even pick up their kids without a wince.

It's exhausting, it's frustrating, and it's just not fair.

We Hear You - "Another Back Pain Product?"

You've probably seen it all: the creams, the gadgets, the pills that promise the world but deliver... well, not much. We get it, you're skeptical. But what if this time was different? What if there was a solution that actually helped your body heal itself?

----------------------------------

So, yeah, the prompt could use some refining obviously.

I think it's a good start though.

I'd give the final result about a 2 out of 10 stars

If I get time later today I'll work on refining the prompt and making it better.

Also, if I get time I'll put together an AI with an updated prompt so you can play around with it and test it out. Free of course.

2 prahblems here for Moiwith the laytest draft, Maxtio,

1) You could prolly slice out back stuff an' insert feline testicle health spray, an' still sound equally ditzoid.

2) Anywan with any actschwl knowledge of anatomy an' physiology would wanna piss on this garbage on sight.

(I have qualified intel, plus also summonable fissure actschwaahn btw.)

How this gonna play with losah morons ain't gaht a cloo?

Depends if'n their spendin' powah ain't also constrained by:

Treat Hair Loss With Your Own Microwaved Faeces!

Hypnotize Horses In Seconds -- And Win The Respect of Fat-Assed Rich Gals!

Gain Instant Anti-Psepfpsoe Mastery -- Even If You Have NO CLUE What It Is ... Or How You Stand To WIN MASSIVELY!

tbh I done with toleratin' schwango regardin' spinal health bcs postyah, movement an' flow are sensshl to all bodily functions an' potentials.

*ANGRY PRINCESS GRRR*

Frickin' AI, what a frickin' shit spreadah.

Why, this is enough to inspire muh Ditzy Dainty Yoga pals to TAKE UP THE SWORD!*

* As in weppin, yanno -- naht an anally inserted spine support. We have cucumbahs for that, mostly figurin' sacral benefits less'n you bend ovah an' shore up L5, though this requires a certain desperado talint.

Just for a comparison if you get something you're happy with. Take the modified question and see what Chatgp comes up. If there is any big difference or not.

Personally, I think this beginning is better. It isn't gender specific, and the cadence hits pain points, one after the other.

I can see reading this introduction and thinking to myself "That's me".

In fact, you could just add this to the beginning of the last version as a sort of long subheading.

The story introduction of the last version is better....but only if you identify with the subject of the story.

The last version of the body copy answers many questions that would stop the sales process that the first version didn't answer.

Of course, you know that.

And....I'm not a copywriter...just chatty.

I learned that No one will know your business and your products better than anyone else, including AI.

AI is to make our work more effective, and I have no doubt you will do much better than AI!

It looks great at a first glance when I see it, but I believe if you add on your own expertise of thoughts and authenticity of your brand, it's going to be like a game-changer.

So I worked on my prompt some more today.

So far I think I've gone through about 100 iterations.

I've added a ton more swipe files and also added something that was in an email from Neville Medhora which reminded me of something important.

Don't know if anyone is really following this, but just wanted to give an update.

I've refined the prompt, but as you can tell it's a very long prompt and very complicated.

I think I'm done working on this for now. I might work more on it in the future.

I think I've gotten it about the best it can get with the current AI.

Anyway, here's what I added from Medhora. It's a list of the 24 psychological triggers from Joe Sugarman and asked in the prompt to include some of these where it's relevant:

Curiosity: "Discover the secret behind effortless productivity."

Greed: "Get double the product for half the price."

Vanity: "Make a lasting impression with our luxury accessories."
