Making a generic prompt useful
Most entrepreneur prompts are generic garbage that keeps you invisible.
Search "prompts for entrepreneurs" and you'll find millions like this:
"Suggest low-cost ways to get my first 100 customers for [product/service]."
Plug that into ChatGPT and you get the same stale list of 10 tactics that every other struggling business owner just got. You're now competing with thousands of people running the exact same playbook.
Here's how I fixed it:
Instead of asking for generic suggestions, I rebuilt the prompt to force the AI to give me a plan that actually fits MY business, MY timeline, and MY constraints.
The rewrite:
"I need 10 low-cost customer acquisition tactics for my [business type]. My budget is under $500, I have no team, and I need to get my first 100 [customers/calls/demos] in [timeline]. I currently have [describe existing assets: email list, social following, website traffic, content, etc.]. Provide a prioritized, actionable plan."
What changed:
- Added my actual business type
- Stated my real budget ceiling
- Named my timeline
- Listed what I already have to work with
- Asked for prioritization (not just a brain dump)
The result: A plan I can actually execute instead of another bookmark I'll never use.
This is what I mean when I say stop using AI like a search engine. Give it context. Give it constraints. Get output that's worth your time.
Clean. Direct. No fluff. Ready to post.
