I Asked an AI Developer How to Use ChatGPT

In partnership with

Welcome to AI Case Study, your go-to resource for navigating AI workflows as a solopreneur.

Hey Solopreneur 🤖

It’s Sabahudin. 

Let’s fix the problem of how you interact with LLMs

As an entrepreneur, you know your most valuable resource is time.

You're always looking for ways to be more productive, but here’s the problem: AI tools like ChatGPT don’t think on their own.

They respond to what you ask, but if you don’t know how to frame your questions, you end up with confused or unhelpful answers.

You’ve probably tried tweaking and experimenting with different prompts, hoping to get the best results.

Maybe you even asked ChatGPT the same question in 10 different ways, but you still got random or incomplete answers.

But hey, I understand.

Many entrepreneurs get stuck because they don’t know how to approach these tools correctly.

Without the right questions or framework, you’ll end up wasting time and feeling more confused than before.

So, I reached out to my expert AI friend, Ahmed, and asked him:

What’s the one tip that can improve how we use ChatGPT?

Here’s what he said:

"ChatGPT is like a child writing an essay as fast as possible, making things up along the way."

The result? Not great.

But if you ask that same child to slow down, create a plan first, and then write, the result will be way better.

Ahmed's Tip to Master ChatGPT

The secret is simple: Structure your prompts.

Here’s how you do it:

Step 1: Start by asking ChatGPT to outline a plan for the task.

Instead of jumping right into generating content, ask it to organize a plan or structure first.

Step 2: Break the task into steps.

You can ask for a rough draft of the structure, then follow up by breaking down sections like the intro, body, and conclusion.

Step 3: Finally, let ChatGPT execute the plan.

Once the structure is clear, ask it to fill in the details one section at a time.

Let’s see this in practice

Imagine you want to write a post for LinkedIn using ChatGPT.

Step 1: “List the 21 steps to writing a quality LinkedIn post.”

Step 2: “List step-by-step what makes LinkedIn posts more readable.”

Step 3: “ Based on these steps above, write me a LinkedIn post for a topic: Quick tip for ALL real estate agencies using ChatGpt. People get it when content is written with chatGPT, and it won’t help to increase sales. Here’s one tip to increase your sales.
Add the following text after all your prompts: “Use 3rd grade English.”

Output ⬇

Now you have a solid LinkedIn post from the first output.
You should always add your personal touch.

One more example:

Let’s say you want ChatGPT to write a business proposal for you.

Instead of asking it to write the whole thing at once, try this:

Ask for a Plan: "ChatGPT, can you outline a plan for a business proposal for a new marketing strategy?"

Break It Down: "Great, now can you help write the introduction for this proposal?"

Execute: "Now, based on the intro, can you complete the next section covering the benefits?"

Once I switched to this approach, my results improved immediately. 👌
