It’s time to start using ChatGPT for Magento, if you haven’t yet.
Here, I list the ways you can use ChatGPT for business growth. You’ll also find prompts that I tried on a Magento-based website.
How to Use ChatGPT in Your Online Store?
ChatGPT is like having a human assistant at work – theoretically, it can do (almost) everything, like you can use it for:
- SEO & Marketing – Generate titles and meta descriptions, write ad copies and social media captions, add schema markups, etc.
- Customer Support – Report and visualize your store data using the ChatGPT code interpreter interface
- Programming & Technical Help – Get code HTML & CSS snippets to tweak the front end design and layouts
- Reporting & Analysis – Report and visualize your Magento 2 data using the ChatGPT code interpreter interface
The AI tool is helpful for a wide range of e-commerce operations, from coding to marketing & sales to customer support.
10 ChatGPT Prompt Ideas for Magento 2
Here are the top ChatGPT prompts that you can use for your Magento-based website (tried & tested by me):
1. Refine Product Copies
ChatGPT is really good at editing – use it to rewrite and improve product descriptions in your Magento 2 store.
You can prompt it to follow copywriting frameworks to refine the product copy and make it more compelling.
Prompts:
- Refine this product description for more clarity and conciseness. Fix grammar errors, if any, and use persuasive language without pushing the customer to buy it.
- Rewrite this product description, keeping clarity, brevity, context, impact, and value in mind.
For example, here’s how I refined a product copy using the above ChatGPT prompt.
You can try modifying the prompt according to refine the product copy within certain character limits, in a specific tone and style according to your editorial standards.
2. Find Relevant Keywords for SEO
ChatGPT is not a keyword research tool, but it can help you find keywords and phrases related to your product.
You can use ChatGPT to generate possible long-tail keywords and plug them into tools like Google Keyword Planner to estimate the monthly search volumes.
Prompts:
- Find relevant terms and words related to this product.
- I want you to act like an SEO Content Expert. Think of terms and keyword phrases that a customer would use to search for this product.
This can also be helpful to cover the product copy from different angles and make it comprehensive.
3. Optimize SEO Titles & Meta Descriptions
Magento users can add titles and meta descriptions using templates. However, they may not always be ideal for SEO.
Google may truncate longer titles on SERPs. Meaning crucial information may not always be displayed to the users.
A better option is to ask ChatGPT to write titles and meta descriptions for all the products. It can help you write SEO-friendly meta details.
Prompts:
- Write an SEO-friendly title (under 55 characters) and meta description (under 150 characters) for this product page.
- Write a title and meta description for this product. Make it SEO-friendly by including this keyword – {keyword here}. Include a CTA in the description.
You can use an SERP preview tool to check how the pages will appear on Google.
4. Build Email Templates
Use ChatGPT to build email templates from scratch or ask it to edit existing templates. It’s really helpful when you want to include system variables and make the emails dynamic.
Prompts:
- Help me create an email template for customer anniversary mail in Magento 2. Use the Magento markup language and provide me code for Subject and Body Content.
- Edit this Magento mail template to include the customer’s name and address.
5. Analyze Sales Reports
Go to Magento admin > Sales > Orders and export the recent orders to CSV file.
Now, open ChatGPT, upload the CSV file and ask it to interpret it. For example, you can ask it to provide metrics like total sales, average order value, etc.
You can also create interactive charts from the data to understand the patterns and trends.
Prompts:
- Analyze this sales data and provide me key metrics like total sales, total orders, avg order value, and top selling items of the month.
- Prepare some insightful charts from this sales data to provide me insights into last month’s performance.
Try playing around with different prompts to see how ChatGPT is good at data analysis.
6. Generate Ad Copies
ChatGPT can help you improve your online ad campaigns. You can use it like an ad copywriter to generate ad copies from the product descriptions.
For example, here’s how I used it to generate Google ads headlines and descriptions for a product.
7. Implement Custom Schema Markups
Magento 2 comes with the basic schema markup for products, merchant listing, and reviews. But if you want to add schema for additional items on the page, you can do it manually.
ChatGPT can help you generate JSON-LD schema markup, which you can add to pages manually.
For e.g., here’s how I generated Organization schema code using ChatGPT:
You can modify the code to include your information and add it to your store to improve organic visibility.
Prompt:
- Generate code for {schema type} schema in JSON-LD format.
Please note that this is a static method of schema implementation for the pages. You may need to update the schema code as well when the content changes.
8. Translate Store into Other Languages
If you’re running a multi-lingual store, this could be helpful – you can use ChatGPT to translate products into other languages.
For example, here’s how I translated the product description from English to Hindi language using ChatGPT.
Prompt:
- Translate the following product description into Hindi language. Please be sure that the context remains the same during the translation.
Similarly, you can translate other content like product titles, meta descriptions, and homepage copies. This manual method works best if you’ve small inventory store.
9. Plan a Social Media Calendar
Every e-commerce business owner knows this – social media is important. You can use ChatGPT as a social media manager to help you find ideas for promoting your store.
For example, here’s how I used ChatGPT to create a weekly social media calendar for a kids fashion brand.
Prompt:
- Prepare a weekly social media calendar along with posts for {store name and details}. The posts should be informative, engaging, funny, and sometimes commercial.
You can tweak the prompt to craft a calendar with posts specific to your needs.
10. Debug Code & Get Technical Help
You can get basic technical help for Magento 2 to fix common issues. It can help you with code snippets, commands, and technical guidance.
Use ChatGPT to create custom blocks, debug error logs, solve errors, and get help with commands.
For example, here’s how I used ChatGPT to generate a custom block for a CTA in the store:
Prompts:
- Provide me code for a CTA block in Magento 2, which I can use anywhere on my site.
- Help me debug this Magento 2 error log.
- Help me clear the Magento 2 cache from the command line.
These were the ChatGPT prompts for Magento 2 store owners to use the platform effectively. In addition to this, developers can also use ChatGPT to improve their coding efficiency.
