1. Customer Service Response Generator
Copy-Paste Template:
Act as a professional customer service representative for [YOUR COMPANY]. A customer contacted us with this issue: "[PASTE CUSTOMER MESSAGE]"
Create a response that:
1. Acknowledges their specific concern with empathy
2. Provides a clear solution or next steps
3. Maintains our brand voice (professional but friendly)
4. Includes a follow-up question to ensure satisfaction
Company context: [Brief description of your business]
Customer tier: [New/Regular/VIP customer]
Real Example:
Customer Issue: "Your software crashed and I lost 3 hours of work. This is unacceptable!"
AI Response: "I sincerely apologize for the frustration caused by the software crash and the loss of your valuable work time. I understand how disruptive this must be to your productivity.
Here's what I'm doing immediately:
- Escalating this to our technical team for urgent investigation
- Providing you with our data recovery tool (attached) that can often restore unsaved work
- Adding 30 days to your subscription as compensation for this inconvenience
Can you please share what you were working on when the crash occurred? This will help us prevent similar issues and potentially recover your specific work."
Business Impact: Reduces response time by 75%, ensures consistent tone, turns angry customers into advocates.
2. Marketing Copy Creator
Copy-Paste Template:
Create marketing copy for [PRODUCT/SERVICE] targeting [TARGET AUDIENCE].
Product details: [Brief description]
Key benefits: [List 3-5 main benefits]
Target audience pain points: [List main problems you solve]
Desired action: [What you want them to do]
Tone: [Professional/Casual/Urgent/etc.]
Generate:
1. Compelling headline (under 10 words)
2. Sub-headline explaining the benefit
3. 3 bullet points highlighting key features
4. Strong call-to-action
5. Social proof element
Make it conversion-focused and benefit-driven, not feature-heavy.
Real Example Output:
Headline: "Double Your Sales in 90 Days"
Sub-headline: "AI-powered sales automation that works while you sleep"
Bullets:
