Build a purchase intent scoring system that identifies subscribers ready to buy and delivers targeted offers at the optimal moment.
Real use case
An online furniture store has 80,000 subscribers but sends the same promotions to everyone. They want to identify who's actively shopping (visited 3+ product pages, compared items, checked shipping) and target them with timely offers.
Customize these fields first
Replace the placeholders with your own context before you run the prompt. That usually improves the first output more than adding more instructions later.
