One or two sentences is enough. It drops into the prompts below as you type.

Prompt 1 of 4

Prompt 2 of 4

    
The 7-objections skeptical customer

    
This surfaces the real reasons customers ghost you, cheaper than finding out after a launch that goes quiet.

    

      
7-objections customer

      
I want to understand why potential customers might not buy my product or service. Act as a skeptical customer who finds reasons not to purchase my offering. Provide 7 realistic objections or reasons for apathy that typical customers might have. For each objection, help me brainstorm how I could address or overcome it. Finally, identify which objections seem most critical to solve before launch.

    

  






  

    
Prompt 3 of 4

    
Test-before-you-build

    
This kills the "I need $10K to build this before I know if anyone wants it" excuse.

    

      
Test-before-you-build

      
Help me create a minimal test for my business idea that requires no product development. Suggest 5 lightweight approaches to test market demand such as landing pages, pre-orders, or concierge MVPs. For each approach, outline exactly what I need to create, what metrics would indicate success, and how to interpret mixed results. Include examples of effective messaging to use in these tests to maximize authentic responses.

    

  






  

    
Prompt 4 of 4

    
The contract review prompt

    
For the lease, vendor, or client agreement you're about to sign once the idea is real.

    

      
Contract review

      
CONTRACT REVIEW PROMPT - Paste your contract into ChatGPT and customize the review with these details:
Contract type: [Job/Freelance/Lease/Sale/Service/NDA]
My role: [Employee/Contractor/Buyer/Seller/Renter]
Focus on: [Red flags/Payment terms/Exit clauses/All]
Risk tolerance: [Very cautious/Balanced/Flexible]

ChatGPT will flag potential problems, explain confusing clauses, and highlight points you should negotiate before signing.

    

    

      
Use-a-lawyer caveat

      
This prompt tells you what to interrogate in a contract, it does not replace legal review. Legal professionals warn that AI contract analysis creates false confidence in people who skip a lawyer entirely. Use this to build your list of questions, then bring that list to an actual lawyer before you sign anything with real money or liability attached.

These prompts are education, not professional advice. Before you sign, spend, or commit based on what the AI tells you, run it past the relevant advisor: a lawyer for contracts, a CPA for money, an insurance pro for risk.
