Paste this prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or the Dock Editor. Fill in [NICHE] with your specific area. Be detailed. "Sustainable fashion for women 25 to 35" works better than just "fashion."
Set [AUDIENCE] to describe who watches your Reels. Choose your [REEL_GOAL] based on what matters most right now. Growing reach needs different content than driving link clicks.
Select [CONTENT_STYLE] based on what you enjoy creating. Face-to-camera works great for personal brands. Text overlay with b-roll is faster to produce. Trending audio and transitions can boost discoverability but require more editing.
Use [TOPICS] to steer the brainstorm toward specific themes, product launches, or seasonal content. Leave it blank for a broader mix of ideas across your niche.
Look through the generated ideas and flag the ones that match your current capacity. Start with the "easy" difficulty Reels to build momentum. Save the advanced concepts for when you have more production time.
Generate Reel ideas that showcase products, share behind-the-scenes moments, and build trust with local or online customers. Set [REEL_GOAL] to promote a product or service and [CONTENT_STYLE] to behind-the-scenes footage for authentic content.

Brainstorm Reel ideas for client accounts across different industries. Change [INDUSTRY] and [BRAND_VOICE] for each client to get tailored suggestions that match their brand identity and audience expectations.
Create educational Reels that position you as an expert. Set [CONTENT_STYLE] to face-to-camera talking and [REEL_GOAL] to educate my audience to get ideas that turn your knowledge into short, shareable video tips.
