Few things strike fear into the heart of employees as hearing that they need to develop a social media strategy. It’s widely considered the realm of youths (which is fine) but often in a business context, the youths aren’t necessarily as polished as we’d like them to be. Polish only comes with time and experience,…
In the early 1900s, Italian economist Wilfredo Pareto noted that 80% of Italian land was owned by 20% of the population. While this may be of very little use to you today (although I admittedly have zero understanding of how often you deal with Italian land holders), this finding has an odd way of reverberating…
If there’s a GPT that I use constantly that gets me ridiculed by everybody who sees it, it’s my Chalkboard GPT (I call him Meal Buddy). I only share it with you because you’re cool. It’s such a beautiful example of a hyper-specific tool that may literally only be useful to me, but then that’s…
As someone who occasionally has to fill out RFPs for work, I think I can say without hyperbole they’re one million times worse than anything in life. The day I realized I could use ChatGPT to drastically cut down my time filling out RFPs was the day I realized it’s going to be ok. All…

For example, for Jurassic Park she might make “Dr. Sattler’s Triceratops Taco Horns, Goat Legs (don’t worry… they’re chicken drumsticks), Barbasol…
Few jobs are more feared than having to be the taker of the minutes in a meeting. The problem is obvious: you can’t zone out and dream of a day when meetings don’t frame your existence. But the issues don’t stop there because you have to organize and distribute information around what happened in them….
It’s time for more fun with uncomfortably personal documents! As per usual, this one won’t be everybody’s cup of tea, but for certain people who are too self-conscious to admit the financial world is confusing as hell (*raises hand uncomfortably*) it can be helpful. If you’re not financially minded, or perhaps new to the world…
