How To Build A Landing Page With AI In 20 Minutes

Introduction

In this tutorial, I'll demonstrate how to create an attractive landing page using AI tools like ChatGPT and MidJourney. The goal is to take you from an initial idea to a fully-functioning landing page in just 20 minutes. Stay tuned until the end, as I'll also show you how to use ChatGPT to craft a perfect email sequence for your new landing page.

Step 1: Creating Your Idea

Let's pretend you've just come up with a groundbreaking startup idea. It’s the next Uber, but for boat rides. You even have the perfect name: Uber. Now, let’s build your landing page, which requires focusing on three essential components: copy, background image, and logo.

Crafting the Copy

Your website copy consists of your headline, supporting text, and call-to-action (CTA). To engage your audience, your copy should capture their attention and motivate them to sign up. Here’s how you can generate compelling copy using ChatGPT:

Open ChatGPT and frame your prompt to act as a marketing professional who’s validating a business idea for your Uber concept.
Fill out the necessary details, such as the app name and a brief description.
Instruct ChatGPT to generate catchy taglines, short sales pitches, and call-to-actions, emphasizing the need for multiple variations to spark inspiration.

Generating the Background Image

After finalizing the text, it's time for the visual components. Head over to MidJourney to generate your background image and logo:

Sign in to MidJourney via Discord, allowing you to create images based on your textual prompts.
Look for inspiration on AI art tutorial pages that display example prompts.
Paste your selected prompt into MidJourney, adjusting it to best capture the look of your boat rental service.
Generate multiple variations until you find the perfect image.

Creating the Logo

The logo should be simple, easily cropable, and match the color scheme of your landing page. Use MidJourney to generate logos as well, following similar steps:

Use prompts to create a flat UI logo for your business.
Crop any unnecessary details and upscale the logo to maintain quality.

Building the Landing Page

After creating your images and copy, select a landing page builder that best showcases your generated art. I've found that Card.co offers the most flexible options:

Choose a template, particularly one from the “form” section to capture email details.
Input your background image, logo, copy, and a form field for visitor emails.
Customize the layout to ensure everything looks just right.

Integrating Email Sequences

After launching your landing page, you'll want to set up an email sequence to nurture your new subscribers using the prompts from ChatGPT for content:

Create a sequence of three emails—a thank-you note, an update on your app development, and a special discount offer for early birds.
Connect this email sequence to your landing page's signup form using an email service provider like ConvertKit.

Final Testing

Before concluding, go through your setup. Sign up with a test email to see if the landing page works as intended and whether email deliveries occur as arranged.
