The Exact Prompt I Use to Find Blog Topics with Demand, Intent, and Conversions

A prompt for finding great content topics.

In partnership with

A few months ago, I was ready to give up.

Every post I published was flat. Every blog, video, or email… I simply hit silence.

I was tired of creating “helpful content” that got clicks but didn’t lead to sales.

It was humiliating.

I thought I was doing everything right. I used keyword tools, wrote valuable posts, and even followed every content marketing guru on the internet.

But still… nothing.

Then something flipped. And it wasn’t a copy trick or another growth hack.

It was a prompt.

A very specific ChatGPT prompt that changed everything.

Have You Been Publishing Content That Feels Invisible?

Most creators and service businesses waste months (and sometimes years) on the content treadmill.

They create weekly posts. They write blogs. They share on LinkedIn.

And yet, their best-case scenario is likes. Worst case? Indifference.

The problem isn’t your writing. It’s your topic selection.

If your topics don’t hit that overlap of high intent, search volume, and relevance to your offer, then you’ll never get the clicks that convert.

But how do you find those unicorn topics?

Here’s where ChatGPT’s Deep Research Mode steps in.

Wait, What’s “Deep Research Mode”?

Most people use ChatGPT like a glorified autocomplete machine.

“Write a blog post about SEO.”

“Give me 10 Instagram captions.”

But ChatGPT can do way more than that. If you ask it to.

In Deep Research Mode, it acts like a strategist. Not just pulling random facts, but connecting dots across search behavior, audience intent, and your offer.

It is like hiring a $10K consultant to research your niche, uncover pain points, and suggest content angles that bring leads, without paying a cent. That’s Deep Research Mode.

Here’s what I asked it:

Prompt: “Find blog or video topics that rank well for [target audience] interested in [industry/niche]. Prioritize those with high intent, decent search volume, and relevance to my [product/service]. Include a short draft for each.”

Within seconds, I had 12 content topics more on-target than anything I ever brainstormed alone. Each with a starter draft, ready to refine.

But let me tell you what made it actually work.

Talking to One Reader, Not an Algorithm

When I first used the prompt, the results were… okay. Informative, but boring.

So I rewired how I talked to ChatGPT.

Instead of saying “target audience = freelancers,” I got specific:

“My reader is Sarah. She’s a freelance designer making $3K/month, wants to hit $10K, but feels stuck. She’s burned out on Instagram content that gets likes but no clients.”

That tiny shift turned generic SEO results into gold.

ChatGPT came back with topics like:

  • “5 Client-Attracting Website Fixes You Can Make in 30 Minutes”

  • “Why Your Portfolio Isn’t Getting You Hired — And How to Fix It”

  • “The Email Script That Landed Me 3 Projects This Week”

Each topic hit Sarah’s pain points. And better? They naturally led into my offer.

I stopped writing content “for awareness” and started writing content that sells.

Why Use This Prompt?

Because content without a strategy is just noise.

This prompt gives you:

  • Clarity: Know what to write, and why it matters.

  • Relevance: Each topic speaks directly to buyer intent.

  • Leverage: Skip the guesswork and start where your reader already feels the itch.

If your current content isn’t converting, it’s not because you suck at writing. It’s because your topics don’t create tension.

This prompt fixes that.

Best Use Cases

You’ll love this if you:

  • Run a service business and want inbound leads

  • Sell digital products or coaching

  • Write newsletters, blogs, or do YouTube

  • Hate keyword tools and just want clarity

Pro tip? Use it before every new campaign or launch to find angles your audience is already hungry for.

The Prompt (Copy & Paste This)

“Find blog or video topics that rank well for [target audience] interested in [industry/niche]. Prioritize those with high intent, decent search volume, and relevance to my [product/service]. Include a short draft for each.”

To level it up, add personality:

“My ideal client is [Name], a [job role] who’s struggling with [pain point]. They’ve tried [solution], but it didn’t work. They want [goal], but feel stuck because [reason]. Find 10 high-converting content topics to attract them, each with a short draft and call-to-action.”

Tips for Better Results

  • Be specific about your audience: The more detailed, the better ChatGPT can personalize.

  • Refine the drafts: Don’t just copy/paste. Add your voice, your stories, your proof.

  • Use a “hook + solution” format: Pull them in with a pain point, then offer relief.

  • Batch ahead: Run this once, then create 2 months’ worth of content in a weekend.

I bombed my first five months of content marketing.

Zero leads. Zero shares. Nothing moved the needle.

I thought I had a traffic problem. But I had a topic problem.

Deep Research Mode changed that.

Now I don’t just write what I think my audience wants — I write what they’re already searching for. What they already feel. What they already need solved.

And when you write like that?

Your content becomes more than content. It becomes a magnet.

Thanks for reading!
