I’m planning to release a new course to help you book more meetings in 2024. Would you mind telling me about your biggest challenge as you look into the next 12 months?
In today’s newsletter, I’ll share the exact 3 steps I follow to turn ChatGPT into my personal sales assistant. If you follow this system, you’ll stop using ChatGPT for futile use-cases, gain efficiency, and focus on standing out in the mailbox of your prospects (which is hard in 2023).
Here’s how, step-by-step:
A few months ago, ChatGPT introduced custom instructions. This feature is extremely useful for providing context to ChatGPT and training it to respond in a way that best suits you. By clicking on your name and selecting “Custom instructions,” you’ll access the following screen:
The first box is designed to provide context for ChatGPT. Here, you should share as much information as you can about your intended use of ChatGPT. Rather than focusing on the tips provided by ChatGPT, consider including the following elements:
Here are my custom instructions:
“I am using ChatGPT as a personal assistant to help me run my solopreneur business. This involves using it for the following tasks:
Each task is handled in a separate conversation, which I consider as an expert. I start the conversation with specific instructions and templates I can refer to. I come back to this conversation whenever its expertise is needed.

I do it with the following products:
The second box allows you to define the way ChatGPT replies to you. Here’s mine for example:
“Unless stated otherwise, this is how I want ChatGPT to reply:
Overall, my goal is to get my answers as fast as I can, without chit chatting. When possible, format your answers with clear headers and bullet points.”
Now that ChatGPT is familiar with how you use it, it’s crucial to organize your conversations. I suggest dedicating each conversation to a specific task. For instance, one conversation could serve as a Connection Request Builder Assistant, while another could function as a Cold Call Script Assistant, and so on. Here’s how my Sidebar looks like:
The last step is the initial training of your assistants. Your goal is to:
Here’s how my Message Template Builder looks like:
Every time I need the assistant, I can scroll to the top of the conversation and copy/paste the code in the chat box.
And these are 3 steps you can follow to turn ChatGPT into your personal sales assistant. There are tons of different assistants you can build if you follow these 3 steps, but make sure to use ChatGPT to help you become more efficient, not to scale crappy outreach messages.
