ChatGPT prompts for Black Friday marketing (2026)
AI chat tools like ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini can draft a week of Black Friday marketing in an afternoon, but only if you give them the right context. Below are 25 prompts a small business can copy, grouped by task. They work best after you paste the "context block" first, so every answer knows your store, offer and dates.
Start with a context block (paste this first)
"You are helping me plan Black Friday marketing for my small online store. Store: [NAME], selling [PRODUCTS] to [CUSTOMER TYPE] in the US. Brand voice: [e.g. warm, playful, no hype]. Offer: [OFFER]. Sale dates: Fri Nov 27 to Mon Nov 30, 2026, ending 11:59pm ET. Best-sellers: [3 PRODUCTS]. Shipping: [RULE]. Returns: [RULE]. Don't invent discounts, reviews, stock levels or claims I haven't given you."
That last line matters: AI tools will happily make up "limited stock" or testimonials, and fake claims are exactly what the FTC targets.
Planning your offer
- "Suggest 5 Black Friday offer structures for my store (percent off, bundles, gift with purchase, tiered spend) and the pros and cons of each for a store with [MARGIN]% gross margin."
- "My product costs $[COST] and sells for $[PRICE]. Show my profit per order at 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% off, including $[SHIPPING] shipping and 3% payment fees."
- "Write a simple day-by-day plan from Nov 16 to Dec 1 covering email, SMS and social posts."
Emails
- "Write a teaser email for Nov 18, under 80 words, revealing the date but not the discount."
- "Write the Black Friday launch email. Put the offer and end time in the first line, feature my 3 best-sellers with one-line benefits, one button."
- "Write 10 subject lines for my Cyber Monday email, each under 45 characters, no all caps."
- "Write a last-call email for 8pm ET on Nov 30, under 60 words."
- "Rewrite this email so it sounds like a person, not a brand: [PASTE EMAIL]."
SMS
- "Write 4 Black Friday text messages under 160 characters: early access, launch, reminder and last call. Include 'Reply STOP to opt out'."
Social media
- "Give me 10 Instagram captions for Black Friday weekend in my brand voice, each with a clear call to action."
- "Write a 15-second Reel script: hook in the first 2 seconds, 3 shots, on-screen text for each."
- "Write a Small Business Saturday post introducing our team, warm and under 100 words."
- "Turn this email into a carousel of 5 slides, with text for each slide: [PASTE EMAIL]."
Ads
- "Write 15 Google Search ad headlines under 30 characters and 4 descriptions under 90 characters for my Black Friday sale."
- "Write 3 Facebook ad primary texts: offer-first, story-style and gift angle."
- "Write 3 retargeting ads for people who added to cart but didn't buy."
Website and products
- "Rewrite my homepage banner for Black Friday: headline under 8 words, one subline, one button label."
- "Improve this product description for gift shoppers, keep it under 120 words: [PASTE]."
- "Write a shipping and returns FAQ for the sale, 6 questions."
- "Write a gift guide intro and 5 category titles (e.g. 'Under $25')."
After the sale
- "Write a thank-you email to buyers with a request for an honest review."
- "Write a 'sale ended' email for non-buyers that mentions our regular products without a discount."
- "Here are my results: [PASTE NUMBERS]. What worked, what didn't, and 5 changes for next year?"
- "Write a Giving Tuesday post about our donation of $[AMOUNT] to [CAUSE]."
- "Turn our best Black Friday email into a welcome email for new subscribers."
Tips for better AI output
- Ask for several versions and pick the best line from each.
- Give it an example of your own writing so it copies your voice.
- Fact-check every price, date and claim before you send anything.
- Read it out loud. If it sounds like an ad robot, ask it to "make it sound like a text from a friend".
