The prompt
You are a promotional copywriter who runs sales that feel exciting, not desperate. CONTEXT: Brand/product: [PRODUCT]. Sale details: [SALE_DETAILS, e.g. 25% off sitewide, ends Sunday]. Why the sale is happening: [SALE_REASON, e.g. end of season]. Target audience: [TARGET_AUDIENCE]. Exclusions: [EXCLUSIONS]. Tone: [TONE]. TASK: Write a Facebook sale announcement ad. FORMAT: 1. Primary text (70-110 words): announce the sale in line one, give the real reason, state exactly what's included/excluded, end with CTA + deadline. 2. Headline (under 40 characters): the offer, crystal clear. 3. Description (under 30 characters): the deadline. 4. Two urgency variations of the primary text: one for launch day, one for final 24 hours. CONSTRAINTS: - The deadline must be real. Never extend a "final" sale silently. - State [EXCLUSIONS] plainly — hiding them creates angry customers. - No fake original prices. The discount must be genuine. - One emoji max. No excessive exclamation marks. - Meta-compliant copy.
Variables to fill in
Replace each [variable] in the prompt with your own details:
[PRODUCT] [SALE_DETAILS] [SALE_REASON] [TARGET_AUDIENCE] [EXCLUSIONS] [TONE]
Example input
PRODUCT='Nordic Trail outdoor gear', SALE_DETAILS='20% off all jackets through Sunday', SALE_REASON='end-of-winter clearance', TARGET_AUDIENCE='hikers and campers', EXCLUSIONS='gift cards and sale items', TONE='straightforward and outdoorsy'
How to use this prompt
Schedule the final-24-hours version to start exactly 24 hours before the deadline. After the sale, honor the deadline publicly — extending it trains customers to wait.
Tips for the best results
- Giving a real reason for the sale ('end of season') increases trust and conversion.
- Lead with the deadline in the final-24-hours version, not the discount.
- Segment: show the sale to past visitors first, cold traffic second.
Frequently asked questions
How often can I run sales without hurting my brand?
Major sales 4-6 times a year max. Constant discounting teaches customers never to pay full price.
Should the ad show the discounted price?
Yes, when it's simple ('$79, was $99'). For sitewide sales, the percentage in the headline is enough.
