Clearly state the task – Tell AI exactly what you want it to do (write, summarize, outline, edit, translate, etc.).

Provide background information – Include your organization’s mission, goals, and the purpose of the request.

Identify the audience – Specify who the content is for (grant reviewers, donors, volunteers, board members).

Define the format – Ask for the response in a specific format such as bullet points, paragraphs, outlines, or tables.

Set the length – Request approximate word count or time length (example: 150 words or a 2-minute presentation).

Include key details – Provide numbers, program descriptions, timelines, and other facts AI should include.

Specify tone or style – Indicate whether the writing should be formal, persuasive, informative, or conversational.

Ask for measurable outcomes – Prompt AI to include goals, statistics, or evaluation methods.

Request revisions or improvements – Ask AI to simplify, expand, or strengthen the content.

Use follow-up prompts – Refine the response by asking AI to clarify sections or add additional examples.
