The Mindful
Artist's
AI Starter Kit

Before we do anything, I want to tell you about me and my brand so everything you write sounds like ME, not like a robot.

My name is: [your name]
My business is: [what you sell / what you do]
I sell on: [Etsy / my website / both / etc.]
My customers are: [who buys from you]

My brand voice sounds like:
• [warm / bold / playful / quiet / poetic / earthy]
• [like talking to a friend / like a love letter / like a journal entry]
• [example: "I sound like a poet who also runs a business"]

Words I love: [list 5-10 words that feel like you]
Words I NEVER use: ["elevate," "luxury," "synergy"]
My brand feels like: [a color, a texture, a season]

When you write for me, please:
• Keep it simple. Short sentences. Real words.
• Sound like a human, not a brochure.
• Never use exclamation points more than once per paragraph.
• Never start a sentence with "Whether you're" or "In today's world."
• Don't use emojis unless I ask.

Please confirm you understand my brand voice before we start working.

I need a product description for my Etsy listing.

Product: [what it is]
Materials: [e.g., archival paper, giclée print]
Who it's for: [e.g., a gift for a nature-loving friend]
Vibe: [e.g., soft, peaceful, earthy]

Please write it in my brand voice. Keep it under 150 words. Lead with emotion, then give the details. Don't use the word "elevate" or "perfect for."

I need an SEO-friendly Etsy title and 13 tags for:

Product: [what it is]
Who would buy this: [e.g., "a gift for their mom"]
Style: [e.g., boho, minimalist, vintage, modern]

Title: gift intent or search term first. Max 140 chars.
Tags: all 13, separated by commas, in a single line. Max 20 characters each. Mix broad and long-tail.

I need product descriptions for 10 Etsy listings. I'll give you the details for each one. Write all 10 in my brand voice, under 150 words each, leading with emotion.

Product 1: [name, materials, vibe, who it's for]
Product 2: [name, materials, vibe, who it's for]
[continue for all 10]

Keep each description distinct — don't repeat the same opening structure. Vary the emotional hook.

→ Batch processing is one of the biggest time-savers. Do a whole collection in one session instead of one at a time.

I need 7 Instagram captions for the week of [date range].

My content themes this week:
• [Monday: behind the scenes / new work / etc.]
• [Wednesday: customer story / testimonial]
• [Friday: personal / reflective]
• [Weekend: product / shop feature]

Each caption should:
• Be 3-5 sentences max
• Sound like me (see my brand voice)
• End with a question or soft call to action
• NOT include generic hashtags — I'll add those myself

→ Do this Sunday night for the whole week. Takes 10 minutes instead of 30 minutes per post.

I want to share the story behind one of my artworks on Instagram.

Piece: [name or describe it]
What inspired it: [the real story — even just a few words]
What it means to me: [why it matters]
What I want people to feel: [the emotion]

Write a caption that tells this story in my voice. Keep it under 200 words. Make it feel personal, not promotional.

I need to write a newsletter for my email list.

Topic / theme: [what this issue is about]
What I want to share: [a story, an update, a new product, a reflection]
Call to action: [what I want them to do — shop, reply, share]

Write it in my brand voice. Keep it under 300 words. Start with a personal moment or observation, not with "Hi [name]!" Use short paragraphs. Make it feel like a letter from a friend.

A customer sent me this message: [paste their message]

Please help me write a response that:
• Acknowledges their frustration without being defensive
• Offers a solution: [what I'm willing to do]
• Sounds warm and human, not corporate
• Is under 100 words

I'll edit it before sending — just give me a starting point.

→ Always read the AI response before sending. Add your own warmth and any specific details the AI wouldn't know.

I'm thinking about a new collection and I want to brainstorm.

My current work: [describe your art style and what you make]
What I'm feeling inspired by lately: [a season, a theme, an emotion, a place]
What's been selling well: [your bestsellers]

Give me 10 collection concepts — names, themes, and 2-3 product ideas for each. Make them feel cohesive and true to my brand. I'll pick what resonates and throw out the rest.

I want to make sure my brand voice is consistent. Here are 3 things I've written recently:

[Paste example 1 — a caption, email, or product description]
[Paste example 2]
[Paste example 3]

Please analyze these and tell me:
• What voice patterns do you notice?
• What words or phrases do I repeat?
• Where does my voice feel strongest?
• Where does it feel generic or inconsistent?

Then give me 5 words that describe my current brand voice.

I'm feeling overwhelmed with my business and I need help thinking through my priorities.

What I'm currently doing: [list your main tasks and responsibilities]
What's taking the most time: [the biggest time drains]
What I actually love doing: [the work that energizes you]
My goal for this month: [one specific thing you want to accomplish]

Help me identify:
1. What I should stop doing or delegate
2. What I should batch or systemize
3. What only I can do (and should protect time for)
4. One small change I could make this week

→ This is one of the most powerful prompts in the whole guide. Use it when you feel scattered or behind.
