What Are ChatGPT Prompts (And Why They Matter)?
A ChatGPT prompt is the instruction you give the AI to produce a specific outcome. The quality of your prompts directly influences the quality of the results. For business productivity, great prompts define a clear role, explain context, specify output format, and include constraints.
Great business prompts should:
- Define a clear role for ChatGPT (e.g., "You are my executive assistant…")
- Explain the context (who you are, what you do, what you need)
- Specify the format of the output (bullets, table, email, etc.)
- Include constraints (word count, tone, audience, tools used)
Scheduling and Calendar Management
ChatGPT can't click your calendar, but it can draft scheduling emails, suggest optimal meeting times, and create time-blocked schedules. These prompts save 20-30 minutes per workday.
