How I Leverage ChatGPT as the Founder of GoBananas.ai: My Top Use Cases Revealed

As someone deeply embedded in the AI consulting space, I often get asked, “How exactly are you using ChatGPT in your day to day?” Today, I’m opening up my personal playbook and sharing exactly how I leverage ChatGPT to streamline workflows, enhance creativity, and make smarter business decisions at GoBananas.ai.

Here are 24 of my go to strategies that you can start using immediately:

1. Mastering ChatGPT Projects

Projects are my ultimate productivity hack. I utilize the custom instructions and knowledge base within projects. A strong context dump means less repetition and more precise responses from ChatGPT. My favorite setups right now? Chief Sales Officer, Alex Hormozi-styled strategic advisor, and Content Creator assistant.

2. My AI Chief Sales Officer

My Chief Sales Officer project is trained extensively on GoBananas.ai's pricing structures, offerings, and strategic goals. It's become an unbiased decision making partner, ensuring emotion doesn’t cloud my judgment. Especially when I’m tempted to accept a lower paying opportunity simply because I enjoy the work. It calls me out when I’m undervaluing myself and flags potential time wasters.

3. The Virtual C-Suite

I've created ChatGPT projects modeled after every executive role in the C-suite. By clearly defining roles, specializations, and instructions within these projects, I have instant access to expert level insights from various strategic perspectives at any moment. (o3 and GPT-4.5 are the best models to use for this use case).

4. Sales Communications Made Effortless

Crafting clear, persuasive sales emails can be tough. ChatGPT helps articulate my intended message effectively, sharpening my responses and reducing communication friction. I never have ChatGPT draft an email for me. I like my personal touch too much. However, I'll type my email into ChatGPT and tell it to "make it better".

5. Devil’s Advocate for Bulletproof Ideas

One of my favorite creative strategies is making ChatGPT play devil’s advocate. GPT-4o used to make you feel good or correct in every scenario. That was awful. We don't need AI to just agree with everything we say. It needs to be truthful. I'll present an idea and let it point out flaws and challenges. Then, we collaboratively resolve these issues until the concept becomes rock solid. This is slowly becoming my favorite use case.

6. ChatGPT (and Perplexity) as My Go-To Search Engines

I’ve fully replaced Google and Safari with ChatGPT or Perplexity for quick, precise information. It delivers targeted, actionable answers without the noise. Deep research is also incredible for complex research.

7. Pricing and Business Model Optimization

When unsure how to price custom services, I input all costs and deliverables into ChatGPT. The platform generates thoughtful pricing suggestions and justifications, offering fresh perspectives and solid reasoning.

8. Social Media Mastery

Full transparency, I used to just copy and paste LinkedIn articles directly from ChatGPT. You can look back at some of my old newsletters and tell. I cringe at the first few because they were clearly copy and pasted and poorly prompted. But, I want to leave them up as a reminder. Now I use ChatGPT for ideation and maybe a caption for my videos.

9. Winning Sales Objections

Keeping a single, ongoing chat specifically for sales objections allows ChatGPT to learn what strategies resonate best with prospects, refining our sales interactions over time. This is such an underrated use case.

10. Automating Presentation and Meeting Preparation

I want to make it very clear that my workshop/keynote slides are not AI generated. Maybe that's contradicting, but I feel like that's still something I should do manually. However, maybe I'm about to work with a new industry and I want to understand the audience or how AI is being used currently. ChatGPT is a great tool for meeting prep in that regard. Have Chat act as a seasoned veteran in that industry so you can pick its brain on daily tasks and potential use cases.

11. Leveraging Industry News

When industry news drops, I immediately attach it in ChatGPT and prompt for insights on its implications for my business. Sometimes, I convert these insights into dedicated custom GPT projects, turning news into actionable strategies.

12. Deep Research & Data Extraction

I regularly task ChatGPT with deep research for tasks that would take me hours to do manually. I'm going to gate-keep my specific use cases here, for now ;)

13. Contract Creation and Analysis

ChatGPT significantly streamlines creating and analyzing contracts or performance agreements. It provides clarity, flags concerns, and suggests improvements rapidly.

14. Personalized Inspiration from Leaders

Applying successful entrepreneurial stories, like Alex Hormozi’s processes or stories, directly to my business context helps clarify actionable next steps and potential strategies.

15. Elite Idea Generation Partner

For ideation, there’s literally no better brainstorming companion than ChatGPT. A quick context dump and one simple question consistently yields actionable ideas, from business ventures to innovative partnerships.

16. Simplifying Complex Communication

When confronted with jargon filled communications, I rely on ChatGPT to translate confusing terms and phrases into clear, actionable language, helping me respond confidently.

17. Content Calendars and Social Strategy

Generating full social media content calendars and tailored campaign strategies becomes effortless with ChatGPT, ensuring cohesive and strategic engagement across platforms. If you generate a calendar for July and it works really well, you can use that same chat for the August calendar and give ChatGPT positive feedback. This way it knows to generate something along the lines of the July calendar.

18. Competitor & Market Analysis

ChatGPT efficiently conducts in-depth competitor analyses and gauges market demand, making strategic decision making faster and more data driven.

19. Conference Networking Strategy

For conferences, I upload attendee lists and strategic goals to ChatGPT. It identifies exactly who I should meet and why, maximizing event ROI. This is a super underrated use case that I don't think conference attendees even think about. Even if they are going to an AI conference.

20. Technical Support & Troubleshooting

From domain management to troubleshooting Outlook issues, ChatGPT has swiftly guided me (many, many times) through technical challenges without delays or frustration.

21. SEO and Web Optimization

Optimizing website copy and social media bios for SEO and Answer Engine Optimization is simplified through ChatGPT, improving visibility and driving traffic. If you aren't familiar with AEO yet, familiarize yourself...

22. Visual Branding and Image Generation

I train ChatGPT on my visual branding preferences. The colors, style, and layouts. This ensures consistent brand aesthetics across all digital content.

23. YouTube Content Personalization Hack

Using tools like Voxscript GPT, I transcribe influential YouTube videos (like Alex Hormozi’s content), then apply insights directly to GoBananas.ai. This creates deeply personalized, highly impactful strategies.

24. Assessing Intent Behind Meetings

When meeting intentions aren’t clear, ChatGPT skillfully analyzes context to uncover underlying motivations. Whether it’s a hidden sales pitch or genuine curiosity.

By sharing these use cases, my goal is to empower you to leverage generative AI to its fullest potential in your professional journey.
