Create with AI! 5 Secrets to a 'Magic Introduction' That Captures Readers' Hearts
You want to write article openings with AI, but...
'How can I capture the reader's heart?'
'It ends up sounding so formulaic...'
Are there any of you out there struggling with these concerns?
In my own experience managing media and going through trial and error with writers, I have keenly felt both the importance and the difficulty of writing introductions.
In the first few lines, whether the reader thinks 'This article is worth reading!' or not.
This is truly, truly important...
Recently, the evolution of generative AI, starting with ChatGPT, has been remarkable, and it has become a powerful partner in writing.
However, if you just leave it to AI by saying 'Write me a good introduction!', you won't easily produce something that resonates with people.
So, this time, I, who research the creation of high-quality articles using AI, will share what I have discovered through trial and error,
5 Secrets to Creating a 'Magic Introduction' That Captures Readers' Hearts with AI
along with some prompt tips.
By reading this article, you too will be able to make AI your best writing partner and create introductions that firmly capture your readers' hearts.
Now, let's take a look!
1. Use empathy that aligns with the reader's heart to make them think, 'This is about me!'
First and foremost, the most important thing is to make the reader feel “Oh, this is about me!”.
At the beginning of the article, put the worries, questions, or secret desires that the reader is holding into words, as if they were your own.
“Yes, exactly! That’s what I wanted to know!”
“How do you know how I feel?”
If you can make them think that way, the reader is already deeply drawn into the world of your article.
Why is it important?
People are strongly attracted to information that is relevant to them.
By clearly conveying the message that “this article is exactly for you” in the introduction, the reader will feel at ease and continue reading.
Ask AI like this!
“The target reader for this article is [specific reader profile: e.g., 'a beginner blogger who is struggling with stagnant blog traffic and wants to write more readable articles']. Please list two worries this person would empathize with, using brackets『』.”
“Please empathize with the situation where [specific worry: e.g., 'the articles I write with all my heart are not being read'] and start with gentle words.”
AI will surely be able to find the perfect words by stepping into the shoes of the reader profile we specified.
2. Give them a reason to read by declaring value, and appeal to sincerity by matching the title
Next, let's clearly state the 'value' of what the reader will gain by reading this article!
“By reading this article, you will be able to understand XX.”
Present clear benefits for the reader in this way.
And most importantly, the promise you make to the reader in the article title must match the value you talk about in the introduction.
Why is it important?
Readers first see the title and think, 'Oh, this looks interesting!', right?
But if they read the introduction and think,
'Wait? This is talking about something different from the title...'
If you disappoint them like that, you'll lose their interest in reading further.
Sincerity in meeting expectations is the first step to building a relationship of trust with your readers.
Ask AI like this!
The title of this article is '[Actual Article Title]'.
Based on this title, please powerfully declare the most important value gained from reading this article in 1 to 2 sentences.
Please create a message that convinces readers, 'If I read this article, I will understand the core of [Search Keyword or Article Theme]!'
Maintain consistency with the title while heightening the reader's expectations.
Let's aim for that kind of introduction together with AI.
3. Light a beacon of hope to build anticipation
Once you have empathized with the reader's concerns and conveyed the value of the article, it's time to light a beacon of hope.
Help them concretely imagine the positive changes or the ideal future they can achieve by reading the article.
'If your [XX] problem is solved, your daily life might become much more enjoyable.'
In this way, use words that gently appeal to the reader's emotions to inspire hope and anticipation.
Why is it important?
Everyone wishes to resolve their current frustrations and achieve a better future.
By empathizing with that pure desire,
"This article might be able to help you with that!"
By suggesting this, you can powerfully encourage the reader's desire to "read more!"
Ask AI like this!
Please describe a hopeful future that awaits the reader after solving their [specific worry or challenge: e.g., "cannot write an attractive introduction"] by reading this article (e.g., the article will be read by many people, content creation will become more fun).
Please present a positive outlook that makes the reader excited, thinking, "If I read this article, I might be able to change too!"
Try weaving warm words together with AI that light a small flame in the reader's heart.
4. Give a sneak peek of the best parts of the article to stimulate curiosity
Now that the reader's heart has warmed up, it's time to tickle their curiosity!
From the content to be discussed in the article, pick out a few points that the reader is likely to be particularly interested in and give them a sneak peek using attractive language.
"In this article, I will also talk about the secrets of XX that are surprisingly unknown, and the tricks of △△ that you can try starting today."
In this way, you can draw out the reader's "I want to know more!"
Why is it important?
If you show everything at the beginning, interest will fade, but if you show nothing, it might make them anxious, wondering, "Is this article really useful?"
"This article looks like it's packed with the information I want and interesting stories!"
Creating that sense of anticipation is a key factor in getting people to keep reading the page.
Ask AI like this!
The main topics covered in this article are the following three:
- [Topic 1]
- [Topic 2]
- [Topic 3]
Please introduce these in concise and attractive bullet points that will pique the reader's interest.
Please tell me some of the highlights of the article that would make readers feel, 'I'm especially interested in this!'
I want to include them in the introduction.
Let's work together to find the best parts, as if you were asking the AI, 'What do you think are the selling points of this article?'
5. A lingering impression that makes you want to know more, and a smooth transition
It's finally time to wrap up the introduction.
At the end, let's conclude with words that make the reader naturally think,
"I want to know more!"
"Let's read the main text!"
and feel compelled to continue.
It plays the role of a"bridge"that heightens anticipation for reading the entire article and smoothly leads into the main text.
Why is it important?
No matter how much you pique the reader's interest in the introduction, if you don't connect it smoothly to the main text, all your hard work will go to waste.
Creating a pleasant flow that says, "Now, this is where the real story begins!" is essential for keeping readers engaged until the end.
Here is how to ask AI!
Reiterate the value of reading this article, and conclude the introduction with positive, powerful words that make the reader want to continue reading the main text.
Include a call-to-action message that gently nudges the reader, saying, 'Please use this article to achieve [specific action or change: e.g., creating an introduction that gets read].'
You want to add a phrase that encourages the reader to make a small resolution, like 'Alright, let's read this!'
