Hey, I'm Thomas 👋
Quick intro since we're just getting started. I'm Thomas Madison Sr, 57. I spent a long time watching small business owners get talked past by "AI experts" who made it sound complicated on purpose. It isn't. The people I've seen get the most out of AI aren't the techy ones. They're the ones who learned a few good prompts and used them every week. That's what this community is. I build the prompts, you put them to work, and we compare notes on what's landing. So tell me in the comments: (1) What kind of business do you run? (2) What's eating up the most of your time right now? That second answer usually points straight at the prompt that'll help you most.

I was working for a non profit and recently quit. Figured I spent enough time running someone else’s shit and I may as well work on making my own dreams come true. Working on my non profit but already started my LLC doing the same work I was already doing focusing on reentry, mandated classes such as anger management and domestic violence, veteran services and creating my own curriculum for the classes. Also creating curriculum for intervention and prevention for my consulting work in the field.
What's your honest relationship with AI right now?
No wrong answers — I'm genuinely curious where everyone's starting from. Drop the number that fits: (1) Never really used it. Not sure where to start. (2) Tried ChatGPT a couple times, didn't stick. (3) Use it here and there, but not sure I'm getting much out of it. (4) Use it weekly and want to get sharper. Wherever you are is fine — this community works for all four. Knowing where you're at helps me post the stuff that's actually useful to you instead of guessing. I'll start: most of the owners I talk to are a 2 or 3, and they're usually one or two good prompts away from being a 4.

I’d say 3. It’s not that I didn’t get much out of it, but still have a lot to learn.
