The Art of Prompt Engineering

Getting the best results from AI depends heavily on how you ask. Here is a guide to mastering prompts on Top DigiMedia.

The C.R.E.A.T.E. Framework

• C - Context: Give the AI a role. "Act as a senior marketing manage..."
• R - Request: Be specific about what you want. "Write a 500-word blog post..."
• E - Examples: Provide examples of style or format if possible.
• A - Audience: Define who is reading. "For tech-savvy millennials..."
• T - Tone: Adjectives matter. "Professional," "Humorous," "Empathetic."
• E - Extras: Specify constraints. "No jargon," "Use bullet points," "Under 280 characters."

Common Mistakes

• Being too vague: "Write about dogs" vs "Write a care guide for adopting a senior Golden Retriever."
• Contradictory instructions: "Write a long detailed summary but keep it under 50 words."
• Ignoring iteration: The first result is a draft. Tweak your prompt and regenerate to refine the output.
