Your Prompt Matters More Than Your Model 🤯

Your Prompt Matters More Than Your Model

It’s one of the biggest secrets in the AI world right now... and it’s simpler than you might think:

🔑 Your prompt matters more than your model.

You’ve probably heard a lot about AI models lately—how powerful they are, how they can revolutionize your business, save time, and boost productivity. But here’s the truth most people are missing: even the most advanced AI model is only as good as the instructions you give it.

Let me share a quick story with you...

A few months ago, one of our roofing clients came to us frustrated. He had been playing around with AI for a while, but he wasn't getting the results he needed. “I’ve got the tools, but it’s not delivering,” he said.

The problem wasn’t the AI model he was using—it was the way he was talking to it.

We dug into his process and quickly realized that his prompts were too vague. He’d type in things like, “Give me a roofing estimate,” or “How do I get more leads?” Now, these are valid questions, but AI needs more guidance to deliver value-packed answers.

I told him, “It’s not about the model—it’s about how you’re prompting it. You have to train the AI to give you the results you’re after.”

So we worked together to refine his prompts, teaching the AI to think more like a top-level marketing strategist, rather than a generic search engine. Instead of “How do I get more leads?” we switched it to:

"Generate a lead generation strategy that targets homeowners who have storm-damaged roofs in [City Name]. Make sure the strategy includes Facebook ad copy, a follow-up email sequence, and an upsell for premium roof inspections."

Boom!

The difference in the response was night and day. Suddenly, the AI was churning out high-converting copy and step-by-step strategies tailored specifically to his roofing business. The best part? He went from spending hours tweaking content to getting it in minutes.

Here’s why this works so well: When you give the AI a highly specific and clear prompt, you’re basically telling it what you expect, the direction to go in, and the outcome you want. It can dig deeper, get more creative, and deliver results that feel like they came from a marketing pro—not a robot.

The AI knows a lot, but it doesn’t know what’s in your head unless you tell it. And this is where most business owners drop the ball.

💡 So here’s the real magic: a simple tweak in your prompts can completely change the game for you.

Want more engagement from your marketing copy? Instead of “Write me an email,” try:

"Write me an email that targets homeowners who need to replace their roofs before winter sets in. Emphasize urgency, offer a limited-time discount, and include a call-to-action to schedule a free inspection."

Need help with your social media posts? Don’t just ask for “a Facebook ad.” Get specific:

"Create a Facebook ad that speaks to homeowners in [City] who are concerned about potential roof damage from recent storms. Highlight a 30% off discount on all roof inspections and include an image of a damaged roof."

This approach doesn’t just apply to roofers—it works for contractors, appraisers, and any other service-based business. If you're not happy with what AI is giving you, it’s not the AI’s fault... it’s the prompt you’re feeding it.
