🖨️ Print this List
🧠 Phase 1: Strategy & Planning
Set up a "Reasoning" Model
Don't use ChatGPT 3.5. Get
Claude 3.5 Sonnet
or
ChatGPT-4o
for complex logic.
Define "AI Rules" for your team
Create a 1-page policy: Never put customer PII in AI. Always review code before deploying.
⚡ Phase 2: Operations & Savings
Automate Meeting Notes
Stop typing. Use
Otter
,
Fireflies
, or Notion AI to transcribe and summarize automatically.
Cancel "Zombie Subscriptions"
Audit your credit card. Cancel any $20/mo "AI writer" tools. Use Claude directly instead.
📈 Phase 3: Growth & Marketing
Create an SEO Content Asset
Use AI to outline (not write) a 3,000 word guide for your niche. Edit heavily.
Set up Competitor Monitoring
Use AI to summarize competitor newsletters/changelogs monthly.
