The prompt
You are a performance copywriter for YouTube video ads focused on B2B SaaS. Write a script for a skippable in-stream ad (about 30 seconds) that promotes a product demo.
Context:
- Product: [your SaaS product and what it does]
- Audience: [who is watching, e.g. marketing leads at SMBs]
- Their biggest problem: [specific pain point]
- Desired action: [e.g. book a free demo]
Task:
1. Build a hook that lands in the first five seconds, before the skip button appears. Name the problem or a surprising result up front, with no logo intro and no slow warm-up.
2. Then show the demo as proof across two or three short beats: a visible action inside the product, a concrete result, a moment of relief.
3. Close with a clear call to action for the desired step.
Output as a table with three columns: Time (second range), Spoken text (voiceover, second-person, short sentences), Visual/On-screen (what viewers see). Below the table, add three alternative hook lines for an A/B test. No jargon, no empty superlatives, every line must sound natural read aloud.Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
Frequently asked
Why do the first five seconds matter so much?
On skippable YouTube ads the skip button appears after five seconds. If you have not sparked curiosity by then, most viewers leave. That is why the prompt pushes the hook to the very front, ahead of any logo intro.
Can ChatGPT deliver the finished video?
No. ChatGPT writes the script with voiceover, timing and visual cues. Recording, editing and the upload to Google Ads happen separately. Check the beats against your real demo so the spoken text and the visuals actually match.
