The results of each prompt open up different optimization opportunities. You’ll make the
most of these when you rewrite and optimize in Step #3.
Once you have the output from your Bionic Analysis, you’re going to decide what kind of
prompt to use for rewriting (and optimizing) the text you have analyzed.
The output from the Bionic Analysis will reveal two things:
For the original text you analyzed, you will therefore have two options:
1. Rewrite your text to amplify what’s in the text (and get more variations).
2. Rewrite to include what’s not in the text (and also get more variations).
You can choose to do one or the other, or both. Either way, this will make your copy
stronger and provide variations you can use for A/B split-testing.

General instructions: Capitalized words or phrases need to be replaced with your own
information. For example, replace ‘X’ with a number of your choice, replace AVATAR

on.
