Scale & Size Confusion
"It looked bigger in the picture." This sentence costs eCommerce merchants billions in return shipping fees every year. Text descriptions like "Dimensions: 5x5 inches" are often ignored. The solution is visual referencing. This prompt book helps you generate images that instantly communicate the true size of your product relative to the real world.
Who This Is For
- Jewelry sellers (showing ring/necklace size on a person).
- Bag and accessory brands.
- Furniture stores (showing items in a room context).
- Gadget sellers (showing items in hand).
The "Universal Reference" Technique
We recognize size by comparing new objects to objects we already know. These prompts are engineered to place your product alongside "Universal Reference Objects"—items like coins, iPhones, credit cards, or human hands—that every shopper intuitively understands.
Prompt Categories
This library includes reference prompts for:
- In-Hand Shots: The gold standard for small items. Prompts for diverse skin tones and hand poses holding the product.
- "Pocketable" Context: Showing items entering or sticking out of jeans pockets to demonstrate portability.
- Tabletop Context: Placing items next to a coffee cup or laptop for office-supply scale.
- Body Wearables: Modeling glasses, watches, or bags on AI-generated models to show fit.
- Silhouette Comparisons: Graphic-style prompts showing the product outline vs. a standard soda can or water bottle.
