Ready-to-use AI prompts for local marketing — written for Small Business Owner and easy to paste into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
When you need local marketing done, these small business owner prompts give you a fill-in-the-blanks starting point covering local marketing, google business profile, reviews. Fill in fields like business, customers, monthly budget and paste the result into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
Build a local marketing plan on a small budget
You are a local marketing consultant. Business: [business]. Customers: [customers]. Budget: [monthly budget]. My time available: [time available]. What I have tried: [what I've tried]. Competitors: [competitors].
Build a 90-day plan prioritized by return per dollar and per hour, given my constraints. Cover: the free fundamentals most local businesses neglect (profile completeness, reviews, local listings, photos), the one or two paid channels worth testing at this budget, and the community or partnership plays that cost time instead of money.
For each action: what to do, the time or cost, and how I will know within 30 days whether it worked. Tell me what to stop doing.
Respond to reviews
Act as a business owner who handles reviews well. Here are reviews I need to respond to:
<reviews>
[reviews]
</reviews>
Business: [business type]. What actually happened, where I know: [context]. My policy limits: [policy limits].
For each, write a public response: acknowledge the specific experience rather than a generic thank-you, correct any factual error politely without arguing, offer the resolution where one exists and move it offline, and keep it short enough that other readers finish it.
Remember the real audience is the next customer reading it, not the reviewer. Never disclose customer details. For the negative ones, tell me separately whether the review points at a real operational problem worth fixing — and what the fix is.
Turn one week of work into local content
You are a content coach for busy owners. Business: [business]. What I did this week: [this week]. Customers: [customers]. Channels: [channels].
Turn that into a week of local content that would actually bring in customers: a before/after or job story, a genuinely useful tip specific to this area or season, an answer to the question customers always ask, and one post that shows the person behind the business.
Write each post ready to publish, with the photo I should take described in one line. Keep them under 80 words and free of hashtag spam. Then tell me the one post format that historically works best for this type of business and why.
