ChatGPT 101 is in session.
I looked everywhere for a practical ChatGPT guide to point people to - something with actual working prompts, not theory.
Couldn't find one that was both useful and detailed enough, so I built it myself.
Look, I hear this frustration every day. You know AI could be a massive helper for your work - comparing financial reports, analyzing deals, preparing documents - but when you try it, you get generic garbage that sounds like it was written by a robot who's never worked a day in their life. Your team is using it like Google with extra steps, typing in questions and hoping for magic.
Meanwhile, everyone claims they're "using AI" but you can tell they're just as lost as you are.
Here's what's actually happening: ChatGPT forgets your context mid-conversation, forcing you to repeat company details over and over. The output sounds so generic and untrustworthy that rewriting it takes longer than doing the work yourself. You need real solutions for real work - not theory about "the future of productivity."
You need it to sound like a human wrote it, with your tone and your specifics, not formal robot language that would embarrass you in front of clients. And most importantly, you need confidence it won't hallucinate numbers or make errors that destroy your credibility.
That's why I created this ChatGPT 101 course.
It's built from actual business frustrations, not marketing claims. These 36 specific prompts are organized into six categories that solve the exact problems you're hitting:
Setup & Context - How to frame requests so AI actually remembers your situation (no more repeating yourself)
Getting Better Output - Options before drafts, fix specific things, match your actual voice (not robot tone)
Templates for Common Tasks - Client-ready emails, meeting summaries, decisions that save time not waste it
Fix-It Tools - Emergency fixes when output is generic, wrong tone, or needs complete rewriting
Organization & Processing - Batch similar work, clean sensitive data, stop babysitting the tool
Verification & Safety - Catch hallucinations, verify numbers, know when to write it yourself
Every technique works in 60 seconds or less - instant, copy-paste solutions you can use on real work immediately. No theory, no "it depends," no becoming an AI expert. Plus I demo a bunch of them in the video and explain why they work!
Your financial report comparisons will have actual insights. Your emails will sound like you wrote them. Your meeting notes will turn into clear actions without 20 minutes of editing.
This is about making the tool trustworthy and useful for the work you're already doing, today, without wasting more time than doing it yourself.
