How to Create Infographics Using ChatGPT (With Prompts You Can Copy + Paste)

If you’re a coach, creator, or consultant sharing valuable insights online, chances are:
You’ve got great content… but not always the visuals to match it.

That’s where infographics come in. They’re not just pretty, they’re powerful.

Infographics help you:

• Simplify complex ideas
• Teach your frameworks clearly
• Get more engagement on content that matters

But here’s the truth: you don’t need to be a designer to make one.
With ChatGPT, you can outline, plan, and even generate the content and layout for your next scroll-stopping infographic.

Let me show you how.

Step 1: Choose the Right Infographic Type

Not all infographics are created equal. Choosing the right format makes your content easier to create and easier to absorb.

Here are 6 powerful formats:

✅ Step-by-step process
✅ Tips or Do/Don’t lists
✅ Before/After or Myth vs Truth
✅ Your Signature Framework or Method
✅ Comparison Chart
✅ Client Stats or Data Highlights

💬 Prompt to try in ChatGPT:

“I’m creating an infographic about [insert topic]. Suggest the best format and explain why it fits.”

Step 2: Use ChatGPT to Outline the Content

Once you know your format, use ChatGPT to break down your idea into clear, concise copy, ready for visuals.

Here are some plug-and-play prompts:

💬 Step-by-Step Process:

“Create a 5-step process for [your topic] with each step under 15 words.”

💬 Quick Tips List:

“Give me 6 short, actionable tips for [your audience] about [your topic].”

💬 Framework or Model:

“Turn my method into 3 visual steps with names, short explanations, and emoji icons: [paste your framework].”

✨ Pro Tip:
Keep the text skimmable. 3–7 points max. Short words. Big ideas.

📌 Example Output:

“Create a 5-step process for meditating with each step under 15 words.”

With ChatGPT, you don’t need to be a designer. You just need your message and a few great prompts.

Let your ideas be seen. Shared. Understood.

Because visual content isn’t fluff, it’s focus.
And your audience will thank you for it.
