Carousel post script

This prompt writes a carousel on your topic for your platform and audience, with a bold hook first, then one idea per slide with a short headline, a summary slide and a call to action.

text-carousel-post-script — chatgpt — 53 words

Write a [7 / 10]-slide carousel on "[TOPIC]" for [PLATFORM] and [AUDIENCE].

Slide 1 should be a bold hook. Then one idea per slide with a short headline under 8 words and one sentence of support, ending with a summary slide and a call to action. Also write the caption with three hashtags.

End with a slide that asks the viewer to save or share; those actions boost reach.

What you will get

A carousel script with a bold hook on slide one, one idea per slide with a headline under eight words and one supporting sentence, a summary slide, a call to action and a caption with three hashtags.

Why it works

Carousels work when each slide earns the next swipe, so the prompt sets one idea per slide and short headlines. The hook gets its own instruction because it decides whether anyone swipes at all. Ending with a summary and a save or share ask uses the actions that help reach most.

Common mistake

Slides carry too much text.

Fix: Keep the headline under eight words and the support to one sentence, as the prompt says. People swipe fast.

Also watch for

The hook is a topic, not a promise. Ask for a hook that says what the viewer will get, such as “7 ways to cut your grocery bill this month”.
The last slide just says “Follow for more”. As the tip says, ask them to save or share, and give a reason, such as “save this for your next shop”.

Try a variation: mistakes format

Rewrite it as “mistakes people make”, with one mistake and its fix on each slide.

Give me three alternative hooks for slide one that promise a specific result, and rewrite the last slide to give a reason to save the post.
