Struggling to Find the Right Words for Your Ads? Here’s How ChatGPT Can Help

Written By Alexandra Jones

If you’ve ever stared at a blank screen trying to write a Facebook or Instagram ad, you’re not alone. For many business owners, especially those wearing all the hats, writing ad copy can feel overwhelming and time-consuming.

What do you say?
How do you make your offer stand out?
How do you speak directly to your audience without sounding robotic or salesy?

This is where ChatGPT comes in.

What Is ChatGPT?

In simple terms, ChatGPT is a powerful AI tool that can generate human-like text based on prompts you give it. But in more practical terms? It’s like having a copywriter on call 24/7—without the hefty price tag.

And when it comes to writing ad copy, it can be an absolute game-changer.

1. Instant Inspiration When You're Feeling Stuck

If you've ever said, “I just don’t know what to write,” ChatGPT can help you get unstuck—fast.

By feeding it a simple prompt (like what you’re selling, who your audience is, and what makes your offer special), ChatGPT can suggest multiple headline options, body text variations, and even calls-to-action that are tailored to your tone and brand.

You don’t have to use exactly what it gives you either—many business owners find that it sparks new ideas or helps them reframe their message in a fresh way.

2. Save Hours of Brain-Power (And Get Back to What You Love)

Writing great ad copy doesn’t just take skill—it takes time. Researching what works, figuring out the right angle, and then editing and refining…it can eat up hours of your week.

With ChatGPT, you can get high-quality draft copy in seconds. That doesn’t mean you don’t tweak or refine it, but it gives you a strong starting point—without the mental fatigue.

Whether you're launching a new offer, testing different creatives, or building out a full campaign, ChatGPT helps you move faster without sacrificing quality.

3. Reduce the Stress of "Getting It Right"

Let’s be honest—writing ads can feel stressful. You want to make sure your words convert, you want to sound like you, and you’re worried about wasting ad spend on messaging that doesn’t land.

The beauty of ChatGPT is that it takes the pressure off. You can test different angles, tones, and formats—without second-guessing every word.

Not sure if your message is clear? Ask ChatGPT to simplify it.
Want to sound more conversational? Ask it to rewrite it in a more relaxed tone.
Need a punchy headline that stops the scroll? It can give you 10 in under a minute.

How to Get the Most Out of It

To really unlock the power of ChatGPT, give it context. The more detail you give, the better the results.

Try prompts like:

  • “Write a Facebook ad headline for a personal trainer who helps busy mums feel strong again.”

  • “Create 3 versions of ad copy for a 7-day free trial at a yoga studio in Portsmouth.”

  • “Write a Meta ad with a clear CTA and pain-point-driven hook for a mindset coach.”
