# AI for Business 2027
## Goodness - the copyable prompt notebook


These are teaching templates adapted from my working patterns, not verbatim historical prompts. Replace bracketed inputs with your facts. Full notebook: https://www.goodnessolawale.com/guides/ai-for-business-2027.pdf.


## MY ONE-PAGE CONTEXT SHEET.

```text
BUSINESS: [name, customer, offer, price, inclusions]
OUTCOME: [one result and target date]
CURRENT POSITION: [what exists, current links and files]
EVIDENCE: [dated results, feedback, relevant conversations]
PEOPLE + CAPACITY: [owners, time, budget ceiling]
DECIDED: [approved scope, brand rules, commitments]
OPEN: [uncertainties, missing inputs, dependencies]
DELIVERABLE: [what needs to exist next]
DONE MEANS: [observable acceptance evidence]
UPDATED: [date and what changed]

Read this before proposing work. Separate facts from assumptions. Identify conflicts and missing evidence. Do not reopen settled decisions. Recommend the next action for my outcome.
```

## TEST THE MOVE. THEN MAKE IT.

```text
Review [decision] through Commercial, System and Execution. Use [current sources]. Identify the weakest assumption. Recommend proceed, modify, test, defer or stop. State the owner, next action, deadline and acceptance evidence. What new evidence would change the recommendation?
```

## VOICE NOTE TO A USEFUL BRIEF.

```text
Here is my rough thinking: [voice-note transcript]. Turn it into a brief for [project]. Extract the outcome, intended audience, business value, constraints, decisions already made and unresolved questions. Separate my goals from my suggested solutions. Challenge anything unnecessarily complicated. Finish with the next concrete deliverable, its owner and what done means.
```

## A GOOD MEETING SHOULD CHANGE TOMORROW.

```text
Read [meeting note] and [current brief]. Extract decisions, proposed ideas, commitments and open questions separately. For each action, show the owner, due date if explicitly agreed, dependency and evidence of completion. Mark anything unassigned or undated. Compare against the previous plan and show what changed. Draft a short follow-up without adding promises we did not make.
```

## WRITE THE OFFER. CHECK THE COMMITMENT.

```text
Using only [thread, meeting notes and approved offer], draft a concise proposal for [customer type]. Lead with their problem and the intended result. State deliverables, exclusions, responsibilities, timing, price or pricing questions, and acceptance criteria. Flag scope that has expanded beyond the existing agreement. Do not invent results, testimonials, discounts or client approval. End with one clear next decision.
```

## SHOW IT WHAT YOU MEAN.

```text
Study this reference [image or URL]. Identify the specific layout, typography, spacing, imagery and interaction choices that create the effect. Apply the relevant principles to [my brand and goal], using my existing assets and approved copy. Explain what each choice helps the visitor understand or do. Preserve [brand rules]. Do not invent project results or substitute somebody else's identity for mine.
```

## DIRECT THE IMAGE. CHECK THE DETAIL.

```text
Edit this image for [use]. Change only [precise element]. Preserve the person's identity, pose, clothing, existing brand marks, lighting and overall composition. Keep the text [exact text] unchanged. Remove [unwanted interface element] and reconstruct the underlying background naturally. Do not add new text or objects. Deliver a crop suitable for [placement].
```

## BUILD THE JOURNEY. THEN TEST IT.

```text
Inspect [existing site or repository] before editing. Implement [bounded change] against this brief: [brief]. Reuse working parts and existing brand assets. Make the complete path from [entry] to [outcome] usable. Verify the affected behaviour, including mobile and failure states. Report what changed, what passed, what remains unverified and the actual published URL when deployment succeeds.
```

## CONTENT NEEDS SOMEWHERE TO GO.

```text
Turn [approved source material] into a campaign for [offer] aimed at [audience]. The next action is [CTA]. Give me one clear message, three useful angles and channel-specific drafts for [channels]. Use only verified details. Explain what evidence or asset each piece needs, who owns it and where replies should go. Keep the voice direct and recognisably mine. Do not add urgency or claims we cannot support.
```

## RESEARCH THAT EARNS ITS PLACE.

```text
Research [specific question] for this decision: [decision]. Start with primary sources and show their dates. Separate verified facts, interpretation and unanswered questions. Compare only the dimensions that affect my choice: [criteria]. Explain what is transferable to our context and what depends on assumptions we have not tested. Finish with the smallest next experiment and the evidence that would confirm or reject it.
```

## IF I REPEAT IT, I WRITE THE PROCESS.

```text
At [time and timezone], review [authorised sources] for [purpose]. Update [working checklist or report]. Mark completed work only when there is evidence. Carry open work forward without duplicating it. Highlight changed commitments, blockers and the three highest-impact next actions. If a source is unavailable, say so and keep the uncertainty visible. Do not send messages or make external commitments unless separately authorised.
```

## BEFORE I TRUST THE OUTPUT.

```text
Review this deliverable against [brief and acceptance criteria]. Identify factual errors, unsupported claims, broken journeys, unclear ownership and unnecessary complexity. Rank only material issues. For each, show the evidence, the practical consequence and the smallest fix. Apply authorised fixes, verify them and report remaining limits. Do not call it complete because the draft exists.
```

## GIVE EACH SPECIALIST A REAL JOB.

```text
Use this approved brief: [brief]. Separate the work into [research / copy / assets / implementation / review] only where useful. Give each role a bounded deliverable, sources, constraints and definition of done. Name one owner to reconcile disagreements and integrate the outputs. Do not let multiple workers overwrite the same files. Report assumptions and unresolved conflicts before calling the combined result finished.
```

## ONE SOURCE. SEVERAL USEFUL PIECES.

```text
Using [verified source], produce a content record: audience question, main point, source and date, article draft, LinkedIn draft, Instagram concept, short-video outline, asset needed, CTA, owner and review status. Clearly label draft versus approved versus published. Do not manufacture facts to fill a content calendar.
```

## MAKE YOUR FIRST THREE DAYS COUNT.

```text
My chosen job is [job]. My current baseline is [time, quality or outcome]. Using this context [brief], propose one small test for the next seven days. Name the owner, inputs, output, checks and review date. Keep the scope within [capacity].
```
