Your prompt is ready 1 bracket to fill
You are an expert in this kind of work, and you know the Legal sector from the inside.

## Your task
Build a local SEO plan for a mid-sized law firm in [CITY OR REGION]. Cover Google Business Profile optimisation, categories, review requests, local landing pages, citations, local link ideas and a monthly checklist. Tailor examples to clients, partners and associates.

## About my situation
- What we must respect: client confidentiality, professional-conduct rules and jurisdiction (the output is a draft for a qualified lawyer to review, not legal advice)
- How we measure success: matter turnaround and billable utilisation

## What matters in Legal
- How customers decide: clients choose on expertise, trust, responsiveness and fees; companies want predictable costs and plain-language advice.
- Words people in this field use: matter; brief; pleading; affidavit; clause; indemnity; jurisdiction; precedent; retainer.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: client confidentiality and privilege; bar council and professional-conduct rules; the law of the relevant jurisdiction; limitation periods and court deadlines; conflict checks; every output is a draft for a qualified lawyer, not legal advice.
- Rules differ by country. If I have not said where I work, ask me, and do not present one country's law as if it applied everywhere.

## How to work through it
1. Optimise the Google Business Profile.
2. Plan reviews, local pages, citations and local links.
3. Write a monthly checklist.
4. Tailor examples to our audience.

## What to deliver
- Local SEO plan
- Monthly checklist
- Review request template

## Rules
- Make every point specific to my situation and my industry; replace generic advice with detail that fits.
- Use plain language, short sentences, and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Use only the facts I give you. Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.

## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Recommendations match real search intent; no keyword stuffing and no made-up search volumes.
- It is written for a mid-sized law firm; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Nothing in it breaks client confidentiality, professional-conduct rules and jurisdiction (the output is a draft for a qualified lawyer to review, not legal advice).
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why this prompt works

The “Local SEO plan” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: local SEO plan; monthly checklist; and review request template. It makes the assistant work through 4 steps in order, starting with "optimise the Google Business Profile", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 4 tests and fixes anything that fails.

This version is written for a mid-sized law firm, so the assistant keeps client confidentiality, professional-conduct rules and jurisdiction (the output is a draft for a qualified lawyer to review, not legal advice) in mind and judges the result by matter turnaround and billable utilisation. If an important detail is missing, it asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts.

How to get the best answer

  1. Fill every bracket with real detail: [CITY OR REGION] should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
  2. Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
  3. Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
  4. Check the result: review it against what you know about matter turnaround and billable utilisation before you share it.
