50 AI Marketing Prompts That Actually Work

Most “AI prompt” lists are generic. You paste them in, get generic output, and conclude AI is overrated. The problem is rarely the model. It is the prompt, and the lack of context behind it.

These fifty prompts are written to produce usable marketing work. To get the most from them, follow three rules.

Replace the brackets. Anything in [square brackets] is yours to fill in.
Give context first. Before any prompt, paste in who you serve, what you sell, and a sample of your writing. The same prompt with context beats a clever prompt without it.
Iterate. The first answer is a draft. Ask it to make the result shorter, sharper, or more specific.

We write and test these in Claude, which tends to hold a brand voice best, but they work in any capable assistant.
