💡 Pro Tips for Getting the Best Results from Ask Jackie AI

Ask Jackie AI creates strong message copy based on the information you provide. Since the AI currently uses only your draft idea, company location, and date, it cannot automatically determine what service you offer.

To help Jackie generate accurate, personalized copy:

Include a clear hint about the service in your initial idea.

Examples:

  • Instead of: “We’re offering $100 off this December”
    Try: “We’re offering $100 off a window cleaning this December.”

  • Instead of: “Running a spring promo”
    Try: “Running a spring gutter cleaning promo.”

  • Instead of: “Holiday special — $75 off”
    Try: “Holiday special — $75 off pest control services.”

Adding even one descriptive phrase dramatically improves the message Jackie generates.


🔧 Managing Templates

You can:

Clone a Template: Makes an exact copy for variations.

Test a Template: Send a test message to yourself.

Remove a Template: Safely delete templates you no longer use.

All options are available from the template popup or template list.

Question Answer
Can I enhance older templates with Jackie? Yes — open any template and click Enhance with Ask Jackie AI.
