If you’re like most women running a business, your to-do list is never-ending. Between marketing, client work, and just keeping the lights on at home, there’s barely any time left to breathe—let alone keep up with new technology.

But here’s the good news: you don’t have to master all of AI to start using it in your business. In fact, you can start with one free tool that’s easy to use: ChatGPT.

And no—you don’t need to be “techy” to make it work. Let me show you how.

Step 1: Sign up for ChatGPT (it’s free)

Go to chat.openai.com. Create a free account with your email.

Step 2: Use it for something small

Start with a task that normally eats up your time. For example:

Writing a social media caption
Brainstorming blog post ideas
Drafting an email to your audience
Creating a headline for a sales page

Example of what you could type: ( Be sure to explain a bit about what you do first…more about that later)

Step 3: Don’t settle for the first draft

A mistake most people make? They take the first thing ChatGPT spits out and use it as-is.

The real magic comes when you guide it. For example:

Instead of just saying:
“Write me a blog post about meal planning.”

Say this:
“Write a 500-word blog post for busy working moms about meal planning. Make it friendly but professional, include 3 actionable tips, and end with a motivational call-to-action.”

See the difference? The second prompt gives direction—so the output actually sounds like you.

Step 4: Save your own “master prompt template”

Here’s the secret to getting consistent, high-quality results: don’t start from scratch every time.

Instead, create a master prompt template that tells ChatGPT:

Who you are
Who your audience is
What tone of voice you want
What format you prefer (emails, blogs, captions, etc.)

Example template:
“You are helping me create content for women entrepreneurs who are starting businesses while balancing family. Your tone should be supportive, direct, and motivational. Write [type of content] that is [word count]. Include [specifics].”

Use this every time—and tweak the details depending on what you’re creating.

Step 5: Practice, don’t wait

Here’s what I tell all my clients: You don’t need to be an AI expert. You just need to start experimenting.

The more you practice, the faster you’ll figure out which prompts work, what saves you time, and how to make ChatGPT sound like your voice.

Final Thought

AI isn’t here to replace you—it’s here to support you. Think of ChatGPT like an assistant who never gets tired of brainstorming, writing drafts, or helping you think through ideas.

So instead of putting it off until you “feel ready,” start today. Try one prompt. See how much time it saves. And if you want a head start, grab my free Master Prompt Template to make ChatGPT work for your business right away.

Use AI with Caution
Remember, AI is a tool—not a human. It can make mistakes, so always double-check its output. If your children are using AI like ChatGPT, monitor their usage carefully. Relying too much on AI, becoming addicted, or forming an emotional attachment can be unhealthy and potentially dangerous. Treat it as a helpful tool, not a replacement for human guidance or interaction.
