The prompt · ChatGPT

Help me create an offer people actually act on, without wrecking my margins.

What I'm selling: [product or service]
Rough margin or cost: [e.g. half the price is materials, or leave blank]
Who I want to attract: [e.g. new customers, lapsed regulars, quiet weekday trade]
Offers I've tried and how they did: [e.g. 10% off, nothing happened]
What I could genuinely offer: [e.g. a free add-on, a bundle, a guarantee, priority booking]
Any real deadline or limit: [e.g. only 10 slots in March]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Five offer ideas, such as bundles, free extras, guarantees or a first-visit offer, each with its effect on my margin in plain words.
2. Your recommended one and why.
3. A genuine reason to act now, only if it's real.
4. The offer written up for a post, an email and a sign.
5. How to tell if it worked.
