Here are 5 ChatGPT prompts I use to run my small business faster
Been using ChatGPT to handle most of my business writing and it saves
me hours every week. Here are 5 prompts that actually work:
- Overdue invoice follow-up:
"Write a professional follow-up email for a payment that is 14 days
overdue. Polite but firm. Include [invoice number] and [amount] as
placeholders. Offer to resend the invoice."
- Respond to a negative Google review:
"Write a response to this negative Google review: [paste review here].
Be professional, empathetic, offer a resolution, keep it under 100 words."
- Write a job posting:
"Write a job posting for a [job title] at my [business type]. Include
key responsibilities, requirements, what we offer, and how to apply.
Professional but approachable tone."
- Instagram captions:
"Write 5 Instagram captions for a [business type] promoting [product].
Conversational tone, under 150 words each, include a call to action."
- Deal with a difficult customer:
"Write a calm professional email response to a customer threatening a
bad review unless we give them something free. Don't give in but try
to resolve the issue."
The trick is always filling in the brackets with specific details —
the more specific you are, the better the output.
