Marketing images are expensive. Hiring designers costs money. Stock photos look generic. Custom photography takes time. AI image generation solves all these problems, but only if you use the right prompts.
Good image prompts are specific. They describe exactly what you want: subject, style, colors, mood, composition, and output type. Vague prompts produce generic results. Specific prompts produce professional images.
For product photos, include: product name, background style, lighting, angle, and any text or branding. For example: "Professional product photo of a blue cotton shirt on a clean white background, soft natural lighting, front view, minimal shadows, high resolution, e-commerce style."
For social media posts, specify: dimensions, style, colors, mood, and any text placement. For example: "Square social media post, modern minimalist design, blue and white color scheme, positive and energetic mood, space for text overlay at bottom."
For website banners, mention: width, style, focal point, and branding. For example: "Wide website banner, 1920x600 pixels, modern business style, blue gradient background, centered focal point, professional and trustworthy mood."
The key is detail. More details mean better results. Describe lighting, colors, composition, style, mood, and any specific elements you need. The AI uses every detail to create your image.
Test different prompts for the same image. Slight variations in wording can produce very different results. Save the prompts that work best. Build a library of proven image prompts for your common marketing needs.
Remember: You're not generating images on SmallBizAI. You're getting prompts to use in image generation tools like DALL-E, Midjourney, or Stable Diffusion. Copy the prompt, paste it into your chosen tool, and get professional marketing images in seconds.
