How to Get Better Results from AI Tools Like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude

Artificial intelligence is powerful, but it needs your help to shine. Whether you’re writing with ChatGPT, brainstorming with Gemini, or researching using Claude, the quality of your results often depends on how you ask. In this guide, we’ll break down six practical strategies for getting better, more useful outputs, with 10 real-world examples under each.

Let’s turn vague prompts into valuable results.

Be Clear and Specific

Why it matters:
AI performs better when you clearly tell it what you want and how you want it. A vague prompt = vague results.

Tips to try:
Use detailed instructions, specify length, audience, purpose, or even tone.

10 Example Prompts:

1. “Write a 150-word Instagram caption promoting our organic skincare line for women in Dubai.”
2. “Summarize this blog post in 3 bullet points for a LinkedIn update.”
3. “Create a 1-page proposal to launch an AI-powered chatbot for customer service.”
4. “Draft an email follow-up after a sales meeting with a potential B2B client.”
5. “Write a bedtime story for kids aged 3–5, centered around the moon and stars.”
6. “Translate this Arabic email into English, formal tone, business context.”
7. “Create a 30-second YouTube script to promote our new AI course.”
8. “List 5 blog title ideas for a wellness brand targeting young moms in the UAE.”
9. “Suggest 3 product bundle offers for back-to-school season.”
10. “Write a job description for a remote content writer with AI experience.”

Add Context

Why it matters:
AI doesn’t know who you are or what your business is, unless you tell it. Adding context improves relevance and accuracy.

10 Example Prompts:

1. “I run a café in Jeddah. Suggest content ideas for our Instagram page to boost morning traffic.”
2. “I’m a teacher creating a worksheet for Grade 6 students learning about the human body.”
3. “We’re launching an eco-friendly furniture line, suggest Google Ads headlines.”
4. “I’m a solo coach helping freelancers. Create a pricing page for my website.”
5. “I run a small travel agency specializing in halal honeymoon trips.”
6. “I’m targeting real estate investors in Dubai. Suggest 5 blog topics.”
7. “We’re redesigning our menu, suggest modern, Arabic-fusion dish names.”
8. “I’m building a pitch deck for investors in the mental health startup space.”
9. “I’m managing an event for busy corporate professionals, write an invite email.”
10. “I offer resume writing services. Suggest a 5-day email sequence for leads.”

Set the Style to Match Your Needs

Why it matters:
AI adapts to the tone, format, and personality you request. Use that to your advantage.

10 Example Prompts:

1. “Write this email like a friendly but professional marketing manager.”
2. “Create a blog post in the tone of Gary Vaynerchuk, direct and casual.”
3. “Write a report summary in a corporate tone, suitable for board-level review.”
4. “Create an FAQ page using language a 10-year-old would understand.”
5. “Generate a YouTube description that sounds like it’s from MrBeast’s channel.”
6. “Write this caption like Apple’s product launch copy.”
7. “Act as a nutritionist and create a personalized meal plan.”
8. “Generate a sarcastic Twitter thread on bad UX design.”
9. “Write a formal business proposal, no fluff, just data and ROI.”
10. “Act as a career coach and write motivational advice for Gen Z job seekers.”

Break It Down and Improve It

Why it matters:
If your request is too broad, AI might fumble. Breaking it into smaller steps gives you better control and more accurate output.

10 Example Prompts:

1. “Step 1: What’s a good niche for an AI newsletter? Step 2: Suggest 3 names.”
2. “Start by listing common problems people face with productivity. We’ll build content from there.”
3. “What are 5 questions parents ask about baby sleep routines?”
4. “Break down the social media strategy for a Dubai-based personal trainer.”
5. “Give me a draft, then we’ll refine it together.”
6. “Make this paragraph shorter without losing meaning.”
7. “Add more local examples to this blog post.”
8. “Now turn this email into a LinkedIn post.”
9. “Suggest image ideas for this article.”
10. “Explain this for a beginner, then for an expert.”

Know Your Audience and Show, Don’t Just Tell

Why it matters:
Knowing your audience helps AI create content that connects. And sharing examples or references improves clarity.

10 Example Prompts:

1. “Write an email for HR professionals in the UAE announcing a 1-day AI workshop.”
2. “Create social media content for new moms struggling with time management.”
3. “Turn this PDF into a checklist, keep the tone friendly and useful.”
4. “Use this slide as reference, write a 3-minute video script from it.”
5. “Write a caption for an Instagram Reel targeting teens in Saudi Arabia.”
6. “I’m launching a dating app for professionals, suggest launch campaign ideas.”
7. “Here’s our old blog, rewrite it with a fresher voice and add examples.”
8. “Generate questions for a podcast aimed at AI entrepreneurs.”
9. “Here’s a YouTube link, turn it into a tweet thread.”
10. “Write a short story based on this image of a child flying a kite.”

Stay Safe and Smart with AI

Why it matters:
AI is helpful, but you’re still responsible for the final result. Always protect privacy and verify outputs.

10 Safety & Quality Tips:

1. Never share passwords, financial details, or private health data.
2. Use secure AI platforms if handling sensitive business data.
3. Fact-check stats and claims before publishing.
4. Reword AI outputs in your brand voice before using them.
5. Double-check tone when writing client emails or legal docs.

8. Treat AI as a co-creator, not a decision-maker.
9. Don’t rely on AI for critical legal or medical advice.
10. Keep training your team on safe AI practices.

Improve as You Go

Why it matters:
AI is a work-in-progress tool, the more you interact and guide it, the better the result.

10 Ongoing Tips to Try:

1. “Make this shorter and punchier.”
2. “Rewrite this with stronger verbs.”

4. “Make this sound more urgent.”
5. “Suggest a better title for this post.”
