    Business Owner’s Guide to ChatGPT

    Use this high-level guide to help you use Generative AI tools like ChatGPT to
    help you with your small business.

    ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer) is a chatbot developed by OpenAI. There is a free
    version and a paid version, and we recommend starting with the free version.

    Practical small business applications of ChatGPT include:


    • Written content creation: Producing a “draft” output of written content in a desired style and
    length.
    • Question answering and discovery: Enabling you to get answers to complex questions by
    prompting it with data and perhaps context information.
    • Tone: Text manipulation, to soften language or professionalize text. You may use it, for example,
    to help you write a reply to a customer service issue.
    • Summarization: Offering shortened or summarized versions of conversations, articles, emails
    and webpages.
    • Simplification: Breaking down titles, creating outlines and extracting key content for documents
    or text that you share with it.
    • Classification of content for specific use cases: Sorting data or text by sentiment, topic, etc.
    • Software coding: Code generation, translation, explanation, and verification.

    Tips for Small Business Owners Using ChatGPT:


    1. Clarify Your Objective: Before prompting ChatGPT, know exactly what you want. Whether it's
    content creation, data analysis, or brainstorming ideas, a clear objective helps in framing the
    question.
    2. Be Specific in Your Prompt: The more detailed and specific you are, the better the response will
    likely be. Instead of asking, "How do I market my business?", try "What are some digital
    marketing strategies for a handmade jewelry online store?"
    3. Iterative Questions: Sometimes, you might need to ask follow-up questions or rephrase your
    queries to dig deeper into a topic or get the exact answer you're looking for.
    4. Stay Updated with Real-World Changes: Always cross-check the information, especially if it
    involves rapidly changing fields like technology or current events.
    5. Use for Content Ideas: If you run a blog or social media for your business, ChatGPT can help
    brainstorm topics, draft articles, or even create catchy headlines.
    6. Language Translation: If you're trying to reach an audience in a different language, you can use
    ChatGPT for translation assistance. Though there are dedicated tools for this, ChatGPT can offer
    a quick translation for short texts.
    7. Technical Tasks: If you're not tech-savvy, you can ask ChatGPT for help with things like
    generating basic code, understanding tech terms, or getting recommendations for tools and
    software.

    Components of an Effective Prompt:
    • Precision: Clearly state what you're looking to achieve. If you need information on marketing
    strategies, specify the type of business, target audience, and any other relevant factors.
    • Brevity: While being specific is good, there's no need for a lengthy backstory unless it's directly
    relevant. Stick to the essential details.
    • Open-Ended vs. Closed-Ended: Decide if you want a concise answer or a detailed explanation.
    For a quick fact-check, a closed-ended question works (e.g., "What is the capital of France?").
    For a detailed analysis, an open-ended question is better (e.g., "How can I improve customer
    retention in an e-commerce store?").
    • Context Matters: If you're asking about a specific event, trend, or idea, provide a brief context.
    This helps in aligning the response to your exact needs.
    • Expect Iteration: Instead of aiming for the perfect question right away, think of your interaction
    with ChatGPT as a conversation. Start broad, and then narrow down based on the responses you
    get.

    By optimizing how you use ChatGPT, you can turn it into a powerful tool for various business tasks, from
    brainstorming and decision-making to content creation and problem-solving.

    ChatGPT Tone:
    To have ChatGPT reply in a specific voice or tone, you simply need to specify your preference at the
    beginning of your prompt. Here are some examples:
    • Formal Tone - Prompt: "In a formal tone, explain the process of photosynthesis."
    • Casual Tone - Prompt: "Can you explain photosynthesis to me like I'm your buddy at a coffee
    shop?"
    • Cheerful Tone - Prompt: "In a cheerful tone, give me some tips on staying positive."
    • Sarcastic Tone- Prompt: "Give me a sarcastic take on why people love watching cat videos."
    • Storytelling Voice - Prompt: "Tell me a short story about a lonely robot in a whimsical voice."

    By specifying the tone or voice upfront, you provide guidance on how the response should be framed.
    However, keep in mind that while ChatGPT strives for accuracy, the interpretation of certain tones can
    be somewhat subjective. It might take a couple of tries to get the exact tone you're aiming for.

    Potential risks of Generative AI and ChatGPT or Bard include:


    • Accuracy. Generative AI systems sometimes produce inaccurate and fabricated answers. Assess
    all outputs for accuracy, appropriateness, and actual usefulness before relying on or publicly
    distributing information.
    • Bias. You need policies or controls in place to detect biased outputs and deal with them in a
    manner consistent with company policy and any relevant legal requirements.
    • Intellectual property (IP) and copyright. There are currently no verifiable data governance and
    protection assurances regarding confidential enterprise information. Users should assume that
    any data or queries they enter into the ChatGPT and its competitors will become public
    information, and we advise enterprises to put in place controls to avoid inadvertently exposing
    IP.
