TWO UPDATES FOR 2026 (SO FAR!)

UPDATE ONE - What used to take hours now takes minutes thanks to a recent image update in ChatGPT. The image on the left is a meeting room we downloaded from a client's website. In ChatGPT, we gave it a simple prompt to add people, coffee, and some logos and within about 90 seconds, the image on the right was created.

Just a few months ago, image creation in ChatGPT was not really worth the time. It was full of typos and weird happenings (extra fingers as an example!). But in the last few months, updates have been made and the outcomes are now remarkable - but how can you keep up?

UPDATE TWO - NEW CONTENT! - 12 prompts to help you build your marketing plan!

This one module will save you hours of work!  You will be able to copy and paste the prompts we provide to research and plan your 2027 commercial marketing plan.  We include a competitor analysis - comparing the product, the pricing, even reviews.   We also include prompts for setting KPIs, planning tactics - you won't believe how simple we make it all!

And then we share with you step by step how to build a GPT - we provide all of the instructions to help you build a GPT that will enable you to build and update your commercial marketing plan as often as you want.
