Write a short persuasive message for a personal ask

You need someone to agree and your draft is a lecture. Get a short message with their interest first.

The prompt · ChatGPT

Write a short persuasive personal message.

Ask: [what I want them to do]
Why it helps them or us: [details]
Their likely concern: [details]
Channel: [text / email]
Deadline if real: [date / none]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. A short sendable message (their interest first).
2. A softer version.
3. Pressure tactics to leave out.
4. A graceful accept of no.

Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, quotes or what the other person thinks. Give a sendable version and, when I've pasted a vent, a one-line note on what you left out and why. This is help with wording, not legal advice. UK English.

Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.

A short example

Fill the blanks, then paste. what I want them to do: a short note you already have. details: a short note you already have. Leave the rest of the prompt as written.
