Plan the page before you prompt

Write a one-paragraph brief that tells Claude exactly what to build.

Five minutes of planning saves an hour of back-and-forth. Before you open Claude, answer these on paper:

Who is the page for? e.g. people in Asaba looking for a barber
What one action should they take? e.g. book on WhatsApp
What sections does it need? e.g. header, services with prices, opening hours, booking button, location
How should it feel? e.g. clean, bold, dark with gold accents

Turn it into a brief

Build a single-page website for [BUSINESS], a [TYPE OF BUSINESS] in [CITY].

Visitors should [MAIN ACTION]. Include these sections: [SECTIONS].
Style: [LOOK AND FEEL]. It must look good on a phone first.

Use one HTML file with Tailwind CSS from a CDN, so I can open it directly in a browser.

Fill in the brackets for your business. In the next lesson, we'll give this to Claude.
