50 Lifestyle Prompt Ideas That Turn Browsers into Buyers

Ready to transform your plain pack-shot into a story that sells? Use the power of AI background generation (ChatGPT, Gemini Flash Image 1 or BackdropBoost) and drop these prompts straight into the "scene" input. Every prompt is crafted to be:

  1. Google Merchant Center compliant (clear product focus, no text overlays).
  2. Easy for any generative model to understand.
  3. Proven to convert from years of PPC testing.

Pro-tip: Replace [product] with your actual item name. Keep descriptors like sleek or matte if they match—drop them if they don't.


Quick Setup Checklist

  1. Start with a high-resolution PNG of your product on a transparent or white background.
  2. Paste the prompt into the AI tool of your choice.
  3. Test the new image against your current creative—let the data decide.

Next Steps: Turn Prompts into Profit

  1. Batch-generate: Don't stop at one image—create a small library and rotate creatives.
  2. A/B test: Swap only the background; keep everything else constant to isolate impact.
  3. Watch file sizes: Google Shopping loves fast-loading images (<150 KB when possible).
  4. Scale with automation: Tools like BackdropBoost or Google Product Studio let you feed a CSV and apply these prompts to hundreds of SKUs in minutes.

About Alfred Simon

Co-Founder at BackdropBoost

Google Ads Expert • AI Entrepreneur

Hey there! I'm Alfred, a Google Ads expert turned AI entrepreneur. After years of managing Google Shopping campaigns and fighting for better performance, I built BackdropBoost to solve the image background problem that was driving me (and my clients) crazy.

With almost a decade of experience in Google Ads and managing hundreds of millions of dollars in ad spend, I know we need to take every opportunity to improve our campaigns. Back in the day we went down in the rabbit holes of SKAGs, adding bid adjustments to everything we could and creating waterfall Shopping campaigns.

Nowadays most of those things are automated. Now we have AI to play with and we need to use it to our advantage.

That is why I built BackdropBoost. With years of experience in Google Ads now I try to create tools that will help us, Google Ads experts, to find new opportunities to improve our campaigns.
