Holiday hours in three places

Updated

Problem it solves

Holiday hours get posted in one place and not the others, and the versions disagree.

Best tool

  • ChatGPT (free chat)
  • Claude (free chat)
  • Gemini (free chat)
  • Copilot (free chat)

The free chat is enough for one draft. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and the free Microsoft Copilot chat can each do this. A paid plan only helps if you hit a usage limit. Copilot inside Word, Excel, or Outlook is a separate paid Microsoft 365 feature. You do not need it to try this once.

Copy-paste prompt

Write the same holiday hours three ways: a sign for the door, a website sentence, and a short Google Business Profile post. Use only the hours below. Do not add an event.

Business: [name]
Dates and hours: [list]
What is closed: [list]
Phone: [number or "do not include"]

Replace every [bracket]. If you cannot fill one, delete that line.

Template

Door sign:
[business] will be [open/closed] on [date], [hours].

Website:
[one sentence]

Google post:
[short version]

Hours field to type into Google yourself: [hours]

Download saves a .txt file. holiday-hours.txt

Example output

A usable draft says the same hours three times, in three lengths. The dates match. There is no party or sale you did not mention.

Tips

  • Update the Google listing yourself. A post does not change the hours field. Check both.
  • If two locations differ, run the prompt twice. Do not average them.

Time saved

Estimate: three versions of a fact you already decided is a few minutes. The arguing about whether you are open is not included.

How to use it

  1. Copy the prompt. Copy the prompt on this page into a free chat.
  2. Fill every bracket. Replace each [bracket] with a fact from your own notes. If you cannot fill one, delete that line instead of guessing.
  3. Edit before you use it. Read the draft against your notes. Delete any price, date, name, or promise you did not supply. You decide what gets sent.
