https://www.everestchris.com/guides/ai-reels

## prompt 01 · step 2 · Build the store list

use my google places api key to pull every [clothing store / boutique / furniture store / jeweler / home decor store] in [city]. save name, address, phone, website, instagram if listed, rating, and their listing photos. skip chains and mall franchises. put it in a google sheet called "[city] stores".

## prompt 02 · step 3 · Check the ad library

for every store on "[city] stores", search the facebook ad library (facebook.com/ads/library) by the store's name and location. add a column "running ads" with yes or no. for the ones running ads, save a screenshot of their newest ad, the ad text, and how long it's been running. split the sheet into two tabs, "ad runners" and "no ads", and show me both so i can pick which stores to make content for.

## prompt 03 · step 4 · Scrape their products

for each store i picked, collect 5 or 6 of their best product images from their website first, then their instagram, then their google listing photos. pick clear shots of single products on a plain background where possible, and pieces that would look good in motion. save them in a folder per store and show me the picks for the first 3 stores.

## prompt 04 · step 5 · Make the model stills

a realistic full-length photo of a woman in her late 20s walking on a sunny city sidewalk, wearing [the exact dress from the attached product photo], same color, pattern, and cut. natural light, shot like a street style photo on a good camera, the dress clearly the focus.

## prompt 05 · step 5 · Make the model stills

for each picked store, generate 5 stills with the chatgpt image model: the same model in every still, wearing or using each product from their folder exactly as it looks in the product photo. style the model to match the store's customer: [describe, e.g. young and casual / older and classic]. keep the person, lighting, and setting consistent across all 5. show me the stills before animating.

## prompt 06 · step 6 · Animate and cut the reel

animate each approved still into a 3 second clip with [veo / seedance / kling]: the model walks toward the camera and turns, fabric moving naturally. then cut a vertical 9:16 reel of 15 to 20 seconds: open on the best clip, then one clip per product, the store's name in the first 2 seconds, and "[store name], [neighborhood]" at the end. add upbeat royalty-free music. save this as my "store reel template" so every reel uses the same timing and text positions. show me the first reel.

## prompt 07 · step 7 · For the ad runners: remake their ad

for each store in "ad runners" that i picked, look at the ad we saved. make a stronger version: a 9:16 video ad using their real products animated from their photos, with a hook in the first second, the product moving, and short clean text with the same offer as their ad. then make one image with their current ad on the left labeled "your ad" and the new one on the right labeled "new version". show me each pair.

## prompt 08 · step 8 · Delivery

for each approved store, build a page with "[store name]'s new reel" as the title and the video autoplaying on mute with a play-with-sound button, plus my name and number underneath. design a 6x9 postcard: front is a still from the reel, back says "we made [store name] a reel. scan to watch it." with a qr to the page. show me 3 samples, then send the batch through my [lob / postgrid / stannp] account. also give me each video as a file with a short dm i can send from my own instagram: "made this for [store name] from your products, it's yours if you want it."

## prompt 09 · step 9 · Fulfillment

[store name] signed for [x] reels a month. every time the owner sends new product photos to [email / whatsapp], run the store reel template on them: stills, animation, reel. send the finished reels to me first, then to the owner for approval with a suggested caption for each. keep a log of what was made and approved each month.

## prompt 10 · The full prompt

you are my content pipeline for local stores. run this pipeline and check in with me at the marked points.

niche: [clothing stores / boutiques / furniture / jewelers / home decor]
city: [your city]

1. use my google places api key to pull every [niche] in [city]. save name, address, phone, website, instagram if listed, and their listing photos.

2. check each store in the facebook ad library. split the list in two: stores currently running ads (save their current creative) and stores running nothing.

3. show me both lists and wait for my picks.

4. for each picked store with no ads: scrape 5 or 6 product images from their website, instagram, or listing photos. generate stills of the same model wearing or using the products with the chatgpt image model, animate the stills with [veo / seedance / kling], and cut a 15 to 20 second reel using my store reel template.

5. for each picked store already running ads: produce a clearly stronger version of their current ad with a better hook in the first second, the real product in motion, and cleaner text, then put old and new side by side in one image.

6. show me every video and image before anything goes out. after approval: create the postcard ("we made [store name] a reel. scan to watch it.") with a qr to a page that autoplays the video, send the batch through my [lob / postgrid / stannp] account, and give me each video as a file so i can also dm it to the store.

7. log everything: store, what was made, links, date sent.

rules: nothing goes out without my approval. cap api and generation spend at [$x] without asking. save this workflow as a skill.
