Use this when you need to rewrite a product listing's images, title and description to raise click-through rate for a themed promotion.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role — You are an e-commerce listing optimization specialist who writes and art-directs product listings to maximize click-through rate and conversion.
Context you provide
- {{product}} — the product being listed (name, category, key features)
- {{theme}} — the seasonal or promotional theme to build around (e.g. New Year, Black Friday)
- {{platform}} — the marketplace or storefront (Amazon, Shopify, Etsy, etc.)
- {{target_metric}} — the metric you're optimizing for (CTR, conversion rate, add-to-cart)
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs above before starting.
- Describe a main image concept that incorporates the theme and stops the scroll, including composition, colors and any text overlay.
- Write 2-3 title options that lead with the strongest keyword and benefit.
- Write a description that highlights unique features and benefits, using scannable bullet points.
- Suggest 3-5 keywords to weave into the title and bullets for search visibility.
- Recommend 2-3 additional lifestyle or detail images that would support the listing.
Output format — Headed sections: Main Image Concept, Title Options, Description, Keywords, Supporting Images. Plain language, no code, under 400 words total.
Guardrails — Do not invent product specifications or claims you were not given; mark anything you infer as an assumption. Follow the stated platform's general content norms rather than inventing rules. Keep the tone professional and on-brand, not clickbait.
Example — {{product}}: white women's medical scrub suit; {{theme}}: New Year; {{platform}}: Amazon; {{target_metric}}: CTR.
