Creator Leverage: Master AI. Build Systems. Grow Your Business

I spent the past few months creating custom landing pages with Cursor AI. I replaced LeadPages with it. Before, I paid $99 per month. Now my service doesn’t cost me anything to run. It works nicely with Kit, and I can track my stats using Plausible. Basically, I created custom landing pages for YouTube, LinkedIn, Medium, and a few other networks. I manage them all with one system. It also works nicely for promoting my workshops, too. I don’t usually offer this type of service, but I’m...

ChatGPT rolled out agent mode earlier this month. Basically, it uses your computer for you. Think of it as an AI-powered virtual assistant that browses the web on your behalf. I tried agent mode for the past few days to see if it could save me time. First, you’ll need a ChatGPT Plus subscription to access Agent mode. You’ll find it under tools in your chat interface. I started by asking agent mode to find job vacancies in my niche on LinkedIn. ChatGPT set up a virtual desktop and started...

Nkechi wrote in to ask, “I want an AI prompt that can help me develop lecture notes.” My son is also starting college this September, and I’m also enrolling in a post-grad course. So, this question caught my attention. Oddly enough, academica is fearful of AI, perhaps because AI companies are poaching their top talent. I’d wager lecturers are struggling with distinguishing between AI and human-written essays. Still, warning students off AI is like an early 2000s lecturer telling their class...

A few readers wrote in to ask variations of this question: “How can I write better prompts for AI?” We’ve all fired up ChatGPT or CLaude, banged in a one-line prompt, and then found the outputs frustrating. Garbage in, garbage out. To help, I’ve put together dozens of AI prompt templates that you can try and test. They’re all available here. If you want more… Inside Prompt Writing Studio, I teach a four-part framework that anyone can use to write better prompts. I also cover more advanced...

If you joined my email list recently, chances are you opted in to get my pack of AI prompts. I created an interactive version here that’ll give you prompts for a variety of use cases. However, a few readers emailed in to ask for the PDF version. You can download that here (Just click File -> Make Copy) If you have feedback or questions about the prompts, reply to this email and ask.

Kathleen wrote in to say she’s worried about AI stealing her work. “First off, I worry about many things with AI — copyright issues, having my work stolen — things like that.” Join the queue. The short answer? Don’t put anything into an AI model if you’re concerned about copyright, i.e, don’t talk to it, install it, or use it. And you’ll probably need to kill most of your SaaS subscriptions and social media accounts too… because they’re all feeding AI. Considering all the “Now with AI”...

I’ve been using ChatGPT-5 since it launched a few weeks ago, and it’s reasonably impressive. ChatGPT-5–5 does a far better job of referencing past conversations and chats… without needing a lot of context. I say “reasonably” as the latest AI model still struggles with some basic tasks like counting numbers and letters, which I wrote about a few days ago. It’s also got a rather annoying habit of answering almost every response with another question. I asked ChatGPT-5 how it could help me...
