Most entrepreneurs use ChatGPT like a search engine.
Ask a question, take the answer, move on. Or use it to bang out an email faster. Nothing wrong with that — it's just not where the real value is.
The CEOs actually getting hours back in their week? They're using it like a Marketing Executive. Someone who pushes back on their thinking, argues the other side, and thinks in layers instead of just handing over the first answer.
That shift isn't about the tool. It's about how you're prompting it.
Here are 20 command codes I use daily to get ChatGPT (or Claude, whatever you're using) to stop giving me surface-level answers and start acting like a strategist in the room. Dig deeper. Argue the other side. Cut to what actually matters. Turn a mess of thoughts into an actual plan.
One catch — these aren't built in. You have to install them once. Setup's in the next slide.
Save this before you lose it.
Then tell me: Which of these modes are you missing most in how you're using AI right now?
