How to use Chat GPT to simplify your Tiny Marketing Actions

When I started blogging in 2005, I often described it as finding Narnia.

There was a whole world in a magical place called the Internet, filled with interesting people and ideas.

I built a few huge chapters in my body of work through this discovery, allowing me to work with people all over the world through tools like blogging and social media.

Creating all of this content was tremendously useful, but not for the faint of heart!

After creating the Tiny Marketing Actions (TMA) method and eventually writing The Widest Net, I have found that the biggest barrier to more people integrating TMAs into their daily activities is overwhelm.

Enter the latest mind-blowing “New Narnia” tool that is already revolutionizing how we market: Chat GPT.

There are valid reasons to use discernment with this new technology. I follow people like Christopher Penn to stay informed about the up and downsides.

Skepticism aside, it is astounding at how much Chat GPT can help you with Tiny Marketing Actions.

3. Request a LinkedIn connection

Prompt:
What’s the best way to request a LinkedIn connection?

Chat GPT Example:

“When requesting a connection on LinkedIn, it’s important to do so in a professional and respectful manner. Here are some tips for making a successful connection request:

  1. Personalize your message: When sending a connection request, it’s important to personalize your message and explain why you want to connect with the person. This could include mentioning a common interest or explaining how you think you could mutually benefit from the connection.
  2. Be clear and concise: Keep your message short and to the point. Avoid using jargon or technical language that the person may not understand.
  3. Explain who you are: If the person doesn’t know you, it’s important to introduce yourself and explain your professional background. This will help establish credibility and increase the likelihood of them accepting your request.
  4. Avoid generic messages: Avoid sending generic messages such as “I’d like to add you to my professional network.” This is unlikely to grab the person’s attention or make them want to connect with you.
  5. Proofread your message: Before sending your message, make sure to proofread it for spelling and grammar errors. This will help ensure that your message is professional and polished.

Here’s an example of a personalized connection request message:

“Hi [Name],

I came across your profile and was impressed by your background in marketing. As someone who is also interested in marketing, I would love to connect with you and learn more about your experience in the industry.

Best, [Your Name]”

5. Identify best SEO terms

Play Around and Find Out

My best advice on learning Chat GPT is just to play around with it on a daily basis.

Do I think it is going to totally replace real humans writing business marketing content? I certainly hope not! I think there is always a place for unique insight, interesting metaphors, new models and revolutionary ideas.

But if it can kick-start an idea, save time and get you into connecting more effectively with ideal clients, I say go for it.

I asked Chat GPT “What is the worst thing that can happen if you use Chat GPT to market your business?

Chat GPT’s Response:

“While Chat GPT can be a powerful tool for marketing businesses, there are potential risks and downsides to using it. Here are some of the worst things that could happen if you use Chat GPT for marketing your business:

  1. Misleading or inaccurate information: Chat GPT generates content based on patterns it has learned from the internet, which can sometimes include inaccurate or misleading information. If this information is used for marketing purposes, it can harm your reputation and credibility, and may result in legal consequences.
  2. Negative customer experiences: Chat GPT-generated responses may not always align with customer expectations or preferences, resulting in negative experiences for them. This can lead to customer dissatisfaction, negative reviews, and a decline in your business’s reputation.
  3. Security and privacy risks: Chat GPT may collect and store sensitive customer data during interactions, which can pose security and privacy risks if it is not protected properly. This could lead to legal and financial consequences if the data is breached or misused.
  4. Lack of personal touch: Chat GPT-generated responses can lack the personal touch and emotional intelligence of human interactions. This may result in customers feeling disconnected from your brand and lead to a decrease in engagement and loyalty.

To mitigate these risks, it’s essential to ensure that Chat GPT is used responsibly and ethically for marketing purposes. This includes verifying the accuracy of information, setting up appropriate security and privacy measures, and ensuring that customer interactions are still personalized and empathetic. By using Chat GPT responsibly and complementing it with human touchpoints, businesses can take advantage of its benefits while minimizing potential risks.”

I couldn’t have said it better myself. 🙂
