💬 Copy-paste prompts

Tap Copy prompt, paste it into your AI (Grok, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini), then replace the [yellow bits] with your own details.

💬 Video ad ideas

I sell [product/property] to [audience] in [location]. Give me 10 ideas for 6-10 second video ads made from still photos.
For each: the scene, the movement (e.g. slow zoom over pool at sunset), on-screen text (max 6 words), and the feeling it should create.

💬 Ad text

Write 5 headlines (max 30 characters) and 5 descriptions (max 90 characters) for a YouTube ad promoting [offer]. British English, no exaggerated claims, include [call to action].

⚠️ Tips & common mistakes

The first 2 seconds decide if people keep watching.
Label AI-generated scenes where required, and never show features a property doesn't have.
Start with a small daily budget.
