Kristina Stubblefield: [00:00:00] What if I told you there are AI tools that could give you five hours of your week back without hiring a team, without learning new software, and without working late into the night?

Today I'm sharing the exact AI task that saved me over five hours every single week in my business. These are simple, repeatable wins you can start using right away, whether you're a solo entrepreneur or managing a small team.

 Welcome to Simplified Solutions, your go-to resource for small business owners and entrepreneurs seeking practical advice, innovative strategies, and simple solutions for business, marketing and technology. I'm your host, Kristina Stubblefield. If you're eager to take your business to greater heights, then you're in the right place.

We're here to help you unleash your business's untapped [00:01:00] potential, boost your visibility, and maximize your investments. Let's dive into the world of simplified solutions. Stay tuned and let's simplify success together. 

I have been so fortunate over the years to work with all different types of business owners and entrepreneurs who thought they didn't have time. And AI until they saw what it could do. In just a few clicks, one client used a single prompt to create a full month of email content, another shaved three hours off of their admin time by repurposing blog posts into social media content, basically instantly.

We've been talking a lot lately about how small businesses can actually use [00:02:00] AI to work smarter, not harder. And today is going to be one of the most practical yet because I'm pulling back the curtain and showing you real simple ways I use ChatGPT and other tools to save hours every week.

Now don't forget, if you haven't grabbed the free handout I created pre baking the oven, how to customize ChatGPT for your brand.

Now's the time. It's the foundation for everything we're doing with AI, so make sure that you download it.

Now, I don't know about you, but I'm ready to talk about those easy wins. No coding, no overwhelm.

Number one, email response templates. I use ChatGPT to generate personalized replies for common client inquiries. Now that could be [00:03:00] questions about services, scheduling changes, and even follow up messages. I say this saves me about 15 to 20 minutes per day. And when you pre-bake the oven and you share with ChatGPT, your voice. It can write in your tone, whether that be friendly, warm, professional, whatever fits your brand.

Win number two, social content repurposing. Instead of writing five different posts from scratch, I take one blog post or possibly one of my video episodes, and I ask ChatGPT to pull quotes for Instagram, summarize for LinkedIn.

Turn these into a short script for reels. And I'm here to tell you that this saves [00:04:00] me at least one to two hours per week.

Win number three, task automation with smart prompts. Do you need a checklist, a caption bank? A quick content calendar. I use a few saved prompts that give me repeatable systems in seconds. Now, the time saved with this really depends on what I'm doing, but a 30 minute task becomes three to five minutes, and to me that's a big win.

Here's another bonus tip. Sometimes I just need a brainstorming partner and I'll ask, give me three creative ways to explain a topic. For busy small business owners, that's better than staring at a blank document for over an hour trying to figure [00:05:00] out ideas to come up with.

Now here's the thing. None of this works well unless ChatGPT knows you. That's why pre baking the oven is so important. If you've filled out your custom instructions and trained it on your brand voice, these shortcuts don't just save time. They create content that sounds like you. So if you've ever felt like AI isn't working for me, ask yourself, have you really trained it to work with you?

Now this is a great time to share. If you haven't downloaded the free pre baking oven guide, grab it. It takes less than 10 minutes to complete and it will make every ChatGPT prompt you use from now on way more effective.

If you are trying to get back time in your week. [00:06:00] AI can absolutely help. But only if you start small and stay consistent.

Pick one of the wins I shared and test it out for yourself. Maybe it's email replies, maybe it's social media, captions, whatever it is. Put it into practice this week and watch what happens.
