Give AI enough ROPE
After putting together an AI prompt for Becky in response to her post, I realised that I was following a set formula to create the prompt.
When you ask AI for help, what you put in shapes what you get out. (GIGO still applies.)
If you give it a vague nudge, you’ll get a vague answer.
If you give it a clear prompt, the results are far more useful.
That’s why I like the idea of ROPE. It’s a simple way to tie a prompt together.
R – Role
Who do you want the AI to be? A keyword researcher, a teacher, or even Santa.
O – Objective
What do you want from it? Ten ideas, a draft post, a short list? Be clear.
P – Parameters
Set the style. For me, it's usually short sentences, a warm "Santa" tone, British spelling, and natural wording.
E – Extras
The polish. Ask for the best five ideas or for suggestions you can use straight away.
Here’s the difference.
A vague ask: “Give me YouTube titles.”
A ROPE ask: “Please act as a YouTube keyword researcher. Give me 20 search phrases families might type into a search engine about booking Father Christmas home visits. Use natural, emotional wording. Highlight 5 that could work as ready-made video titles.”
See how much stronger the second one is?
So next time you’re stuck, give AI enough ROPE. You'll get better answers — and you won’t feel like you’re pulling teeth.
