Yep, this is another article about AI. Everyone is talking about AI, even my hubby, who only does online shopping on Amazon… every day a box arrives… but that’s a different story. Listen up because this is coming from the most non-technical person I know. 😊
And I even find myself using AI EVERY SINGLE DAY, ALL DAY. I also create digital products, and AI cut production time by 73%.
Now I’m reading your mind — what does all this have to do with you starting your business?
….. Boy, are you at the right place at the right TIME!!!
You don’t want to skip a single word. I’m going to share some of the AI tools I use daily, and I’m going to share the Prompts… WAT!!!!
Even if you’re not familiar with prompts, no worries!
AI prompts are like driving — you don’t need to know the interworkings. All you need to know is to stick your key in the ignition, turn it, and get on down the road.
That being said, are you ready? Hold on to your hat…
“Let’s dive in!”
AI prompting What is it?
AI prompting is when you use artificial intelligence like Gemini or Chat to help you work more efficiently. It’s like having a digital assistant to do things for you. You give the AI a prompt, which is a brief description of what you want it to do, and the AI will use its knowledge and understanding of the world to generate a response.
For example…
Are you looking for new business ideas? Well, that’s where AI prompting comes in handy. Artificial intelligence can generate new ideas and content quickly and efficiently and it’s free.
First, you give the AI a prompt. Let’s say you need a new product idea for your business. Your prompt could be “Generate a list of innovative product ideas for the health and wellness industry.”
The AI will use its vast knowledge and understanding of the industry to generate a list of potential products you could create.
AI prompting can be a helpful tool for aspiring small business owners who need to generate creative content, like writers, designers, and marketers.
However, as the saying goes, “You get what you ask for,” if you give the AI a weak prompt, you’ll get a ‘weak’ response. So, your prompts must be on point.
To help you write good prompts for AI, here are some tips:
Insert descriptive language: Instead of just saying “Write a story about a beach,” try using descriptive language like “Paint a picture with words about the sound of waves crashing on the shore and the feel of sand between your toes.”
Use analogies or comparisons: Providing analogies or comparisons can help the AI understand what you want in a relatable way.
For example, instead of saying “Write a product description,” try “Imagine you’re describing this product to a friend who has never seen it before.”
Providing context: Specific context can help the AI understand ‘the big picture’.
For example, instead of saying “Write a blog post about marketing,” try “Write a blog post about how to improve marketing strategies for small businesses.”
Give specific examples: Great examples can help the AI understand exactly what you’re looking for.
For example, instead of saying “Write a recipe for a cake,” try “Write a recipe for a gluten-free, vegan chocolate cake with raspberry frosting.”
I am thrilled to tell you how AI can help you start your own business. With AI, you can optimize your workflow, increase productivity, and save time and money.
