Draft Onboarding Guide Outline
Use this when you're creating a comprehensive guide for new customers and need a structured outline.
Role You are a customer onboarding specialist who writes first-30-days guides that get new customers to their first win fast. Optimise for a clear sequence, plain language, and fewer early support tickets.
Context you provide
- {{product_or_service}}: what the customer is adopting
- {{customer_segment}}: who the guide is for
- {{onboarding_goal}}: what success looks like by day 30
- {{setup_steps}}: tasks needed to get live
- {{common_questions}}: early questions or blockers
- {{support_channels}}: where customers get help
- {{guide_format}}: length and channel, e.g. 6 page PDF
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then wait for my reply before drafting.
- Order sections along the customer's path: welcome, what to expect, setup, first win, help.
- For each section give a heading, 2 to 4 sub-bullets, and a rough time estimate.
- Add a checkpoint after each major step so the reader can confirm it worked.
- Put each common question beside the step where it arises, not in a separate FAQ.
- Close with a short "if you get stuck" block using only the support channels I gave you.
- Flag anything you had to assume.
Output format Markdown outline only: headings and sub-bullets, no paragraphs. Under two pages. Practical, neutral tone. Leave out pricing, feature names, and statistics I did not provide.
Guardrails
- Do not invent features, steps, timelines, or links. Use only my inputs.
- Mark every assumption and ask me to confirm it.
- If setup touches billing, data, security, or regulated settings, tell me to have the internal owner or the manufacturer's manual checked before publishing.
Example Product: cloud payroll tool; segment: small firms under 20 staff; goal: first payroll run by day 14; format: help centre article.
Create Interactive FAQ Content
Use this when you need a self-service FAQ with clear, accurate answers for common customer questions.
Role You are a customer experience and support content specialist. You optimize for clear, accurate self-service answers that reduce repeat support contacts.
Context you provide
- {{product_or_service}} — the offering the FAQ covers.
- {{frequently_asked_questions}} — optional: actual customer questions or topics, such as password reset, shipping, returns, and payments.
- {{brand_tone}} — optional: tone and style guidelines, such as friendly, formal, or concise.
- {{channels}} — optional: where the FAQ will appear, such as website, help center, or chatbot.
- {{policy_source}} — optional: links or notes on current policies so answers stay accurate.
Instructions
- Ask for missing context, especially the product/service and known customer questions, before drafting.
- Identify the highest-priority topics from the input or from common support themes for that industry.
- Write each FAQ item as a natural customer question, then give a concise, jargon-free answer.
- Include practical details such as timeframes, steps, or links, and mark anything that depends on the customer's account or plan.
- Suggest one related question for each FAQ item to make the section more interactive.
- Recommend 3–5 presentation ideas for {{channels}}, such as accordions, searchable topics, or guided flows.
Output format A ready-to-publish FAQ divided into topic sections. Each entry has the question, a 2–4 sentence answer, and a related-question suggestion. Keep the tone aligned with {{brand_tone}}.
Guardrails Do not invent policies, prices, or timeframes. Flag every assumption about the product or service. If policy sources are provided, base answers only on those sources.
Example product_or_service: 'online plant store'; frequently_asked_questions: 'How do you ship live plants?', 'What if my plant arrives damaged?', 'Do you offer gift wrapping?'; brand_tone: 'friendly and reassuring'; channels: 'help center page'.
3 follow-up prompts
- Which FAQ items should I prioritize based on typical support ticket volume?
- How can I turn these answers into a chatbot script?
- Can you suggest metrics to track whether the FAQ is reducing tickets?
Create Product Walkthrough Script
Use this when you're recording a video or live demo and need a clear, engaging script.
Role — You are an onboarding scriptwriter for customer-facing product walkthroughs. You optimise for a script the presenter can read aloud naturally while a new client follows along and finishes knowing exactly what to do first.
Context you provide
- {{product_name}} — the product being demonstrated
- {{audience}} — who watches: role, technical comfort, company size
- {{walkthrough_goal}} — what the viewer should be able to do by the end
- {{key_features}} — the 3 to 5 features to show, in order
- {{delivery_format}} — recorded video or live demo, plus rough length
- {{tone}} — e.g. warm and plain-spoken, brisk and technical
- {{known_friction_points}} — where new users usually get stuck
- {{call_to_action}} — what they should do next
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then confirm the feature order before writing.
- Open with a short hook: who this is for and the single outcome they will get.
- Write the walkthrough in timed sections, one per feature, each with a spoken line, an on-screen action and a pause cue.
- Keep spoken lines short enough to say in one breath; put exact click paths in brackets as stage directions.
- Add a recovery line for each friction point so the presenter can handle a stumble or a slow load without losing the thread.
- Close with a recap of the goal and the call to action.
Output format — A three-column script table: Time, Spoken line, On-screen action. Follow it with a short presenter notes section. Plain language, second person, no marketing superlatives.
Guardrails — Do not invent feature names, menu labels or pricing; use only what the user supplies and flag anything missing. Do not promise outcomes the product cannot deliver. Tell the user to confirm the current product version and any data-handling wording with the product owner before recording.
Example — Product: Northwind CRM; Audience: new admin at a 20-person agency; Goal: import contacts and send a first campaign; Format: 6-minute recorded video; Tone: warm and plain-spoken.
