Before-After-Bridge Story
The BAB copywriting framework with concrete-detail guardrails: paint the specific pain, the specific outcome, and the 1-2 features that bridge them.
Prompt text
Write [a post/page section/ad] about [product/topic] using the Before-After-Bridge storytelling framework.
Before: paint the specific, relatable pain of the "before" state — use concrete detail, not generic frustration ("staring at a spreadsheet at 11pm trying to reconcile numbers that don't add up," not "managing finances is hard").
After: paint the specific "after" state once the problem is solved — again concrete, sensory, and outcome-focused, not feature-focused.
Bridge: introduce [product/solution] as the specific mechanism that gets someone from Before to After — name the 1-2 features that actually do the bridging, not a full feature list.
Keep it under [word count]. End on the After state or a light CTA, not a hard sales pitch.
