25 ChatGPT Hacks You Need to Know in 2025 (Profit, Become a Pro!)

All right, Chat GPT is my most used tool and it's not even close. So here are all the business ideas, prompt ideas, one liners, hacks, tools, tips, tricks of how to better use Chat GPT in your life to become superhuman. So I went to ChatGPT and I said, hey, how do I use you? That's unique. It gave me a list of things and then I kind of brainstormed on it for a day or two and thought, okay, what are all the interesting ways I'm using ChatGPT that people might be able to learn from? And then I asked ChatGPT, hey, what are my best prompts? What are my most genius prompts? How am I using you? That's unique that other people could learn from? And then I started brainstorming some ideas, business ideas that you could one prompt launch with Chat GPT if you will. And I'm going to cover those at the end. Okay, number one, you want to use ChatGPT like a strategist, not like a search engine. It's really hard to break those 20 year old habits of using Google, but you can't think of ChatGPT that way. Don't just ask it for facts, ask it for angles, tactics, leverage. Instead of saying things like what are some good business ideas? Ask it things like what are eight off the radar business ideas that people are talking about in message boards and in subreddits that are poised to explode over the next few years, you will get drastically different responses. Number two, you want to feed it real context references. Just because it has this massive database of context to feed from, it doesn't know what you want. Instead of saying write this email, more simply say, write this email so a fifth grader could understand it. Instead of saying use good copywriting techniques, ask it first, what are some good copywriting techniques? Look at the list of what it gives you. Find the ones that you want to implement and ask it to implement those ones. For instance, I want flowing sentences. I want to intersperse 5 word sentences with 15 word sentences with 3 word sentences. Because that has proven to be good copywriting. It doesn't get stale. But you wouldn't know that unless you first asked it what good copywriting is. Feed it as much reference data as you can, whether that's an image, a video, or just text. It's usually going to be text. Right now I'm trying to design a sport court for our backyard and instead of saying show me some cool sport courts, I'm going to Google images or Pinterest. Finding Pictures of cool sport courts, uploading the ones I like the best and saying, show me five sport courts that look similar to these ones. Maybe it's the dimensions, maybe it has a hedge around it or 10 foot fencing. You want to give it more to work with or you're setting it up to fail. This enables ChatGPT to act more like a business partner and less like a tool. Number three, you want to build repeatable workflows, not just prompts. Okay, so don't think about, huh, I need one good email. You want to think about, huh? I need a prompt that will write one good email anytime I need it to. What is that prompt? That way you can use the same prompt to write emails of similar quality forever and ever. And then once you find the prompt, you can create a custom GPT and upload the prompt into your instructions. Take it a step further. Download the 10 best emails that that prompt spit out, upload it to just a chat window and say, what makes these emails great? And then upload those same 10 emails into your project along with what ChatGPT told you and about what makes those emails good. And then use that as your long standing project to write all of your emails in the same style that is now your style. You're not asking for answers, you're asking for systems. Because the quality of your questions is the ceiling of your output. Okay, number four, you want to layer your prompts like a builder, not a browser. So don't expect to get the best response on the first answer. You got to keep massaging it. And that massaging will help you learn ChatGPT better than any other method. So instead of thinking of it as one input equals one output. Think of it as input, then refine, then reword, then repackage, then pull, then test, then deploy. Number five, treat ChatGPT like an actual business partner. Write investor reports for me. Hey, design some pricing models. Hey, write a newsletter for me. Now, here are some of my more recent prompts that you might be able to learn from. Number one, give me eight unique marketing angles for this podcast transcript. What I'll do is I'll take those eight angles and then I'll go to Instagram Stories. On Instagram Stories, I can post a poll with four options. I will take four of the eight marketing angles, post them as a poll, and say, which YouTube title would you click on? That's me trying to ask a question in a way that anyone on the planet could resonate with. Not, hey, which one of these businesses would you start? Because they might not be interested in starting a business. But everyone watches YouTube. Then I take the other four options that it gave me and ask the same question. And I only let these polls run for about 30 minutes because I get enough data in that time to make decisions on. Then I post the next poll and that will last about 30 minutes. Then I take one to two winners from each poll and I do a bracket style competition where I post the third and final poll and then I get the winning marketing angle. Then I will write a long form tweet or a newsletter or YouTube title YouTube thumbnail with that marketing angle in mind. And I won't have to guess if my audience will want to click on or not. I know they will. And you don't have to have an audience or produce content to do stuff like this. Anyone on the planet has access to other people. Most of us have an Instagram account. Even if we have 400 followers, we could still post a poll to them and ask relevant questions. Shoot. You can even ask ChatGPT to simulate the responses of a poll because it's better than nothing. So here's how this works. I make you free videos. I actually know what I'm talking about. I have no greasy sales pitch at the end. And if you implement what I talk about, you'll make a lot more money and have a better life. And all I ask for in return is, is that you hit the subscribe button and maybe even the notification bell. Just like that. Thank you. The second recent prompt that I gave chatgpt that I like is take this exact piece of writing and rewrite it at a fifth grade reading level. I can't think of any instance where this is not a good idea. There's been studies done that show that Donald Trump speaks at a fifth grade reading level, and that's one of the reasons for his success. Most politicians, they want to sound smart, they want to sound educated. But that turns people off. People don't want to feel dumb. It's friction. We'll change the channel. We want our writing and our speaking to have mass appeal. Speaking of writing, number three, if there's a writer that you really like, go download some of their writings, upload it to a ChatGPT project, and say, tell me what makes this writing good? What are the first principal reasons that makes this writing good? And then you can create a new project, upload those reasons as the instructions, and you can start writing like that person. Okay, number four, we're on writing again. But it's something that we all do on a Daily basis, but we take it for granted. I love this prompt, which is take X, Y or Z. Write an attractive hook in the beginning that asks an open ended question and delay the payoff by not answering that question until the very end and make sure that the payoff is worth it. For example, look at this freaking thing right here. Would you believe that in China they have vending machines that will melt down your gold and directly deposit the money into your bank account? You would not believe how much money they make every month. But first, let me tell you about how this vending machine works. Okay, so everyone wants to know how much money this thing makes per month, but you're not going to answer it until the end. The hook was amazing because they've never heard of anything like this. You have their attention. Then you can describe the vending machine and then you answer the question that you asked at the beginning. At the very end. That's the payoff. And yes, that works for business. Emails, text messages, whatever you want people to read to the end. I don't care what you're writing, I don't care what you're saying. Maybe this is a speech, maybe it's a presentation you're giving to your seven person marketing team. It doesn't matter if it's worthy of you saying or writing, then it needs to be worthy of people getting to the very end of it. And you can do that by promising a payoff at the end. At the very beginning. Number five. This was an actual prompt that I used to teach a Sunday school lesson. I said, give me cool phrases from the Book of Mormon that don't show up anywhere else. I was looking for quotes for my lesson and I didn't want to use generic verses or quotes that we've all heard before, but I wanted them to be good. And so I'm forcing ChatGPT to search its database and find signals of verses that people find interesting or good that aren't repeated too often on the Internet. You can rinse and repeat this with anything. Hey, give me quotes about SEO that are absolutely gold based on what you know about SEO but that don't appear very often. An example of a generic quote about SEO might be SEO requires both on page and off page optimization. An example of on page optimization would be utilizing keywords that you want your audience to be searching for. An example of off page optimization would be relevant backlinks from reputable websites. Okay, boring. Yawn. Put me to sleep. Or you could say something like, in the age of AI, SEO is going to Be more relevant than ever, because instead of Google sending you visitors, ChatGPT will be sending you visitors something that's new and fresh. Number six. This was a prompt that I used with my limitless AI pendant. I had it look at all of my transcripts from the past week. And this was every conversation I'd had with anyone in my vicinity. And I said, hey, based on what you just learned about me, because it knows when I'm speaking, but it doesn't know the names or the relationships of who else is speaking, but it can surmise them. And then I say, hey, how can I be a better human? How can I be more patient? And what a brilliant, amazing example of using ChatGPT in our personal lives without having to feed it more context manually. We're feeding it context that this little pendant records. Number seven, take some reviews from your customers and say, hey, use all of these reviews, but optimize it with X, Y and Z keywords so I can turn these reviews into blog articles that will be SEO friendly, super relevant because these reviews are coming from your customers and they're talking about things that your future customers are searching for. And also because it's using key search terms that you want to rank for. Number eight, find me one star reviews in a niche and help me write a cold email to fix the problem. So you can do this just cold. You can just ask ChatGPT to go find them or you can just go to Google Maps. You can just start searching around for businesses. You could find any old business. You can copy and paste all their reviews and then plug that into your chat as a source of reference. Number nine. This is an actual prompt that I used to here's what I have a truck, time and access to firewood. Give me a launch plan now. Rinse and repeat with whatever you have going on in your life. You could say, for instance, here's what I have. $140,000 a year salary, 20 hours of spare time to work with per week. That's assuming I give up Netflix and a couple other hobbies. I'm really good at B2B sales. I'm really good at woodworking. I know that I hate operations. I'm not good at that. Give me 20 business ideas based on everything I've told you gives you 20. You only like four of them. Okay, I really like these four. Give me 20 more that are more similar to these four. Here's why I want you to be more similar to these four. Because they incorporate X, Y or Z traits that I really identify with. So every single prompt you're giving it more and more to work with so it doesn't have to guess as much. You've probably heard the phrase garbage in, garbage out. Well, I would add to that strategy in to ChatGPT leverage out of ChatGPT. Ask for the strategy and or give it strategy. Give it a direction to run in and you'll get better results, you'll get more leverage. And this is going to sound a little weird, but hear me out on this. You got to be vulnerable with ChatGPT. Use it like a therapist. If you have privacy concerns, don't share your account with anyone. If you have a little squabble or an argument with your wife, your child, your friend, your business partner, feed it as much context as you can. Ask it to be as unbiased as it can be. Give the other person's perspective as unbiased as you're able to and say, break it down for me. How could I be better at this? How could I explain my side better? Okay, here are some business idea prompts that I've asked ChatGPT over the last few months. Number one, what industries are notorious for having a bunch of one star reviews where I could cold email owners and sell them a fix? Anyone listening to this could go to repl.it build a quick web app that does this. You utilize the Google Maps API to pull the reviews, utilize your OpenAI API to analyze the reviews, and then you could have your app in replit. Find the top five business industries in your local area that are notorious for having the worst reviews and then you can have it find comparable cities and see if your city is over or undersaturated based on your comparable city. I've used this example a lot, but I'll say it again. Dallas and Houston very comparable markets, similar in size and culture. Maybe. I find that there's one plumbing business for every 5,000 people in Dallas, but one plumbing business for every 10,000 people in Houston. That's interesting. Furthermore, I find that the average plumbing business in Dallas has 4.2 stars, but the average plumbing business in Houston has 3.1 stars. Hmm. There's two very, very relevant data points that tell me I need to open a plumbing business in Houston because it's half as saturated and because the people are having a worse experience there with their plumbers. You could build an app in repl.it to do this. Here's idea number two that I asked it help me brainstorm businesses I could build around the Tesla cybertruck and then I even got.
