The AI hack that saved me hours this week — and most business owners don’t even know it exists.
It’s called a Custom GPT (or a “system prompt” if you’re using other tools).
Here’s what it does: instead of explaining who you are, what your business does, and what tone you want EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. — you set it once, and AI remembers it forever.
I set mine up with:
→ My business name and mission
→ My ideal client description
→ My brand voice (warm, direct, professional)
→ The services I offer
→ What I never want AI to say
Now when I open ChatGPT, it already knows I’m Tangie Cokes. It responds like my own personal assistant — not a stranger I have to re-introduce myself to every time.
This saves me 30–45 minutes a week minimum.
Here’s how to set yours up:
→ Go to ChatGPT → Settings → Personalization → Custom Instructions
→ In the first box: tell it who you are and what you do
→ In the second box: tell it exactly how you want it to respond
That’s it. 5 minutes. One time. Massive return.
