Human Tone Email Prompt
Prompt modifier for writing concise, natural-sounding business emails with AI
A short tone directive designed to stop ChatGPT from writing overly stiff, verbose, and robotic drafts. Adding 'conversational, spartan, use less corporate jargon' alongside bullet points creates direct emails that sound like a real person wrote them. It eliminates common corporate clichés and unnecessary pleasantries.
The prompt
Add this tone instruction to your drafting prompt:
Tone: conversational, spartan, use less corporate jargon.
Example structure:
"Write email to [Name]. Tone: conversational, spartan, use less corporate jargon.
- [Bullet point 1]
- [Bullet point 2]
- [Bullet point 3]"
What it's for
- Draft quick, direct replies to clients without AI pleasantries
- Turn rough bullet points into natural-sounding business correspondence
- Cut down corporate jargon and fluff in team announcements
Key points
- Specify 'Tone: conversational, spartan, use less corporate jargon' directly in the prompt
