Teach it my business once
Answer one question at a time and get a one-page brief about your business to paste at the start of every future AI chat.
The prompt
Pick your trade to fit the wording, then paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
I want you to know my business properly so I can stop starting from scratch. I run a local business, [TEAM SIZE]. Ask me, one question at a time, about what we do, who our customers are, our hours, our prices, how people usually reach us, and the questions we answer most often. When you have enough, write it all up as a one-page brief I can save and paste at the start of future conversations. Then show me you understood by drafting a reply to a typical inquiry in my voice.
When to use it
You keep explaining your business from scratch every time you open a chat. It is also the prompt the free quiz hands you when you score low on how you use AI yourself.
When not to
Leave out customer names, card details and anything private. The brief is about your business, not your customers.
What to paste in
- [TEAM SIZE]: Just me, or a team of how many people.
Never paste
- Customer full names, phone numbers or card details
- Anything about a customer's health or treatment
- Passwords or account logins
What you should get back
- Questions one at a time about what you do, hours and common questions
- A one-page brief you can save and reuse
- A sample reply in your voice to show it understood
What stays with you
The prompt writes a draft. You decide what happens to it, and nothing should reach a customer until you have read it. Decisions about money stay with a person every time, and so do health questions and complaints. When KeenHand builds a routine like this, every message carries the same four decisions: Automate, Approve, Revise, Reject.
