Answer "can anyone recommend…?" posts in local groups
Someone in the village group asks for a recommendation and you don't know whether to jump in. Get a reply that helps without sounding pushy, and a plan for next time.
The prompt · ChatGPT
Help me use local Facebook groups for my business without being spammy. My business: [what you do and where] The group's rules about businesses: [paste them, or "not sure"] A typical recommendation post I see: [paste an example] How fast I can usually reply: [e.g. within an hour, evenings only] Happy customers who might be in the group: [yes / no / not sure] Ask me up to 3 short questions first. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. Three short replies I can use when someone asks for what I do: one if I can help soon, one if I'm booked up, and one pointing them to someone else if it isn't my thing. 2. A friendly message to past customers asking if they'd tag me next time they see a post like this. 3. A helpful monthly post that fits the group rules, sharing a useful tip, not an advert. 4. A list of things not to do that would get me removed or annoy people. Friendly and local, stick to the rules I pasted, UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
