The prompt · ChatGPT

Help me message my regular customers on WhatsApp without annoying them.

My business: [what you do]
Who I'd message: [e.g. regulars, people who've booked before]
What about: [e.g. spare appointments, new stock, monthly offers]
How often: [e.g. twice a month at most]
How people would sign up: [e.g. sign at the till, QR code, reply YES]

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

Then:
1. A short invite asking customers if they'd like messages, saying what they'll get and how often.
2. A welcome message for people who say yes, including how to stop messages.
3. Three example messages, each under 40 words, that feel useful rather than salesy.
4. Good and bad times to send.
5. A short text-message version of each, with a clear opt-out line.

Only for people who've said yes. Remind me to check WhatsApp Business rules and the ICO's guidance on marketing messages. UK English.

For WhatsApp Business messaging rules and the ICO's guidance on marketing texts, use web search and name the page you used. If it doesn't search on its own, open View all tools and choose Search.

A short example

Fill the blanks, then paste. what you do: a short note you already have. e.g. regulars, people who've booked before: a short note you already have. Leave the rest of the prompt as written.
