🗿 From Chisels to Checklists: Where it Begins
I’ve talked to a lot of D2C founders in the past month and asked them how they’re using ChatGPT and it still surprises me 🤔
These founders have built multi-million dollar brands worth $10M to $100M BUT don’t know how to prompt ChatGPT the right way.
Here’s what I’m hearing and seeing in terms of prompts (maybe you’re also doing this).
They’ll go into GPT-4 and then input:
“Behave like an e-commerce expert and create a homepage headline for a [Industry] product called "[product]" from the brand "[brand]" and here’s our website”
That’s a good start and there’s nothing wrong with that from an initial look.
But, if you want to really take it to the next level, then I want you to treat ChatGPT as if it’s a human being.
What do I mean by that?
Stop treating it like a robot and communicate as if you just hired and are about to onboard the world’s #1 _________________ (influencer marketing manager, creative strategist, Operations lead, etc.)
To start, here’s a checklist of things that you want to input it with to start training it to achieve your brand’s goals — btw this works for any company and not just D2C.
Only do one role and a specific function per chat — ex. you’re the world’s #1 Influencer Marketing Strategist at [brand website] that’s built our Influencer Marketing Strategy.
Include the roles and responsibilities that you have in that job post or a template that you’ve customized online and add that in.
Tell GPT-4 what the objective or goal of their role is and define what success and failure look like — we’ll go through a specific example later —.
Provide it with as much relevant information from your docs, slides, or anything you have for this specific role's success, and just copy and paste it.
If this info is hosted on provided documents, don’t just copy the link. Copy the content of the site and paste it into the chat.Get into the habit of having ChatGPT-4 tell you why it came up with this type of an answer (this will be super key later on)
🍖🔥The Master ChatGPT Prompts to Scale Your D2C Team With 10X Growth
WARNING: This is when the heat from the firepit starts to burn. So grab your stone tablets and chisel down some notes—you won't want to miss this. 📝
Alright, so let’s jump into the practical application but first I want you to open up https://chat.openai.com/, and let’s execute this together every step of the way.
At the end of this, you’re going to say “Shut up and take my 💵 .”
Here’s a template that you can use:
Today we are going to use: Obvi to build this prompt because they’re one of my favorite brands, and both Ronak and Ashvin have built an amazing brand and we are honored to have them as client partners at D2C Design.
Also if you haven’t already subscribe to their Chew On This podcast + newsletter. It’s my #1 DTC podcast and they’re just great human beings. We need more of them!
Start with this Prompt (feel free to copy and paste):
You’re the world’s #1 influencer marketing manager for my D2C brand. Here are your roles and responsibilities and what I want you to understand about our brand:
Now you can do this for any role that you want. It can be your for operations, marketing, retail, ads, social, email marketing, branding etc - any role that you want.
For the purposes of this walkthrough, we are going to go with an influencer marketing manager BUT this works for ANY core role.
There are roughly 13 areas that you’ll wanna specify to ChatGPT. Of course, you can add more depending on how your business looks, but these will take you very far.
Roles and responsibilities
Brand name & Website
Product type
Target audiences
Competitors
Budget
Campaign duration
Campaign objectives
Campaign failures
KPIs
Preferred Influencer platforms
Brand guidelines
Additional information that I want you to review and understand about our brand
Now you’re probably thinking:
“Ain’t nobody got time for thattttt!” make sure your inner voice slurs the “t” at the end for 3 seconds for dramatic meme effect.
Don’t worry fam I got you…
🔥 Secret hack to get you started:
GPT-4 Prompt: I want you to fill in the template above with myobvi.com (crawl its entire website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and everything that you can possibly find about the brand that’s ever existed, and process this before you fill it in with the core important factors.
Pay close attention to the image below, because by the end of this, here’s what your prompt should look like:
See how I didn’t come short in any description, and neither did I leave things up for interpretation of GPT-4.
Correct anything that could be better and so it looks solid before progressing.
Give it as much input as you can like a full-time hire, so you get the best possible output.
Make any adjustments to the above with a mix of GPT-4 assisting you and also your own specific nuances and context since you know your brand the best.
Now you’re probably thinking:
“Bro, how come we haven’t even asked it for anything yet?”🤔
We’ll get there, grasshopper.
Remember it’s wax on, wax off, and you have to learn the fundamentals before you can become an AI master as Mr. Miyagi would say.
With all this information, before you ask it to perform anything, I want you to prompt it with:
Knowing everything that you know now about our brand as the world’s #1 influencer marketing manager. Can you run a SWOT analysis and provide your pros and cons of an influencer marketing program along with what you think about our brand?
ChatGPT-4 will start its reply with something of this fashion:
As the world's #1 influencer marketing manager, I have conducted a SWOT analysis of Obvi's influencer marketing program, along with my thoughts on the brand.
Now grab your 🍿 and read the full response that GPT-4 gives, because it’ll blow your mind 😱
Not that impressed?
Hold my 🍺, because this ain’t called “D2C X AI Deep Dives” for nothing.
Now, you’ll ask GPT-4 three key follow-up questions.
Keep prompting the model with these instructions:
Thank you, Now I’ve got 3 important questions for you before I ask you to start as our official influencer marketing manager.
What questions do you have about our brand regarding influencer marketing manager that you’re still unclear about or would like more input on?
Out of 100% how would you rate your understanding of our brand to build the most detailed, successful, specific, and advanced step-by-step SOPs?
Can you build this plan based on the most successful influencer marketing campaigns of D2C/CPG brands in our space and share case studies from the entire internet and social media that you can find, send those to us and incorporate the lessons that you’ve learned into our plan?
Now here’s where it gets interesting and may give you a mindgasm
Read ChatGPT’s full response in the image below, and you’ll understand why you just did all that previous prompting for it to provide us with…
After reading the response, you’ll notice that the next step is to provide detailed answers to the questions that it’s asking you. You may get 2, 3, 4, and sometimes maybe even more questions. There’s no right or wrong.
Now at this point, the sky is the limit, or rather your critical thinking capabilities and how you choose to interact with it.
And we can start asking it exactly what we want whether that be a high-level influencer marketing plan with a specific step-by-step SOP or sending us those case studies it looked into.
You can also get super in the weeds by asking it for a list of the top influencers it recommends and why.
👍 An important rule of thumb: Make sure that you don’t delete this chat because once you do, you will lose all the education, learning, and prompting that’s saved in the chat.
It’s like a video game save point that you’ll want to continue the journey on instead of starting from scratch again. 🕹️
What I do is I just create a simple Google Doc where I list each specific role and chat link associated with it so I just have a short link for me and my team to access any chat at any time for anything.
It’s the first thing I do now before I want to execute anything is to have several of these GPT-4 open and be working alongside it.
Ok, we are almost at the end of this deep dive…
and I want to show you the difference in why we put in all this work to reach this point.
Here is a side-by-side comparison of what happens if you just used a standard prompt as the 1st message vs everything we just did together.
Standard Prompt Version 1
Master Prompt Version 2
Version 1 is generic and not personalized at all.
Version 2 is way more personalized and tailored to the brand.
This is not 🚀 science, friends: prompting matters.
So do yourself a favor and invest some minutes of your day today, polishing this skill and implementing the above.
Now you can go ask it to expand each step with actionable examples, references, or anything else you want and it will understand everything that we filled out in the beginning.
For example, let’s say you want to expand on step #5 in detail, and now our prompts can be stupidly simple like:
This is great but I think we can take each step to the next level 10X. Let's start with step 5 and you know what I want to see.
Put it into action and see the magic response GPT-4 gives back:
Now you’d be already teasing ChatGPT, and prompting like:
Come on - give me the top 10 content ideas that will be the most successful based on everything you know.
OR
Come on - give me the top 10 content ideas that will be the most successful based on everything you know and some super original content ideas that will go viral.
Look at the difference when you just add even one more line:
VS
Alright, so that’s it, folks.
Congrats, you’ve made it to the next level.
🎇 Our cave ancestors would be proud.
This isn’t called a deep dive for nothing, ehhh? (“Sorry” my inner Canadian came out 😂)
Now imagine this for every single core role on your D2C team, and at any time you or your team can go in and ask anything you want specifically, and it will provide you with anything personalized and detailed for anything you want.
Don't miss out on this valuable resource, available only to subscribers once it drops!
💡 Just imagine this: in a mere 15 minutes, our trusty GPT-4 AI Influencer Marketing Manager chiseled out a solid strategy that would've taken a human at least a couple of hours to craft.
We're talking about compressing time—our most precious asset—like never before!
With AI, we're not just wheeling around; we're speeding up and supercharging our output, 10X style. It's a mammoth leap for cavemen and women everywhere!
This is without uploading or adding any previous campaign performance metrics and learnings.
When you do that you’re taking this to an even higher level than you won’t believe.
Imagine every single core role in your D2C brand setup like this for your team, scaling your team on both the strategic and tactical levels. 🚀
This is why it’s the most profound thing that you can today is implement this into your brand and those that do will destroy the competition.
It takes average to great, and great to godlike, but you must know how to leverage this the right way.
Plus, if you boys and girls think this is crazy, imagine AutoAI executing this all in the background by itself automatically (this is already happening and we are testing it) will share with you how to do that and our learnings in the next D2C deep dive.
That’s all I got in this Deep Dive for you today. Now let’s jump into our next section.

🌟 Meet Dharmesh, our "rock"-star AI Leader of the Week from HubSpot! 🌟
Journey with us to the "cave" of innovation as we explore Dharmesh's monumental achievements at HubSpot. He’s the Founder/CTO of Hubspot and a billionaire and after listening to him on this AI MFM podcast episode it was amazing just to hear him say:
“I’ve been in software for 30 years now and startups pretty much my entire professional career. The only time I’ve felt heart palpitations. This is too big to ignore. I think it’s the single largest opportunity tech paradigm shift we’ve seen since the internet came out.”
If that doesn’t put a 🔥 on your butt to adapt, then I don’t know what will.
He’s definitely someone I wish I had known earlier because he’s the type of guy that got where he is because of his hardcore convictions.
I mean who else would drop $10,000,000+ on Chat.com without knowing exactly what he’s going to build in the AI space but he knows it’s going to be big and it’s his ticket into the AI big leagues.
Get ready to "mine" for golden insights and "chip away" at AI challenges with the brilliance of Dharmesh's expertise.
I highly recommend you listen to or watch the podcast episode this week, or you’ll miss the train buddy.
