omg… this AI workflow is wild.

You can now run full competitive market analysis using ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok deep research features.

Here are the exact 3 mega-prompts I use to replicate McKinsey-style insights for free:
Let me tell you what McKinsey consultants actually do:

1. Analyze industry trends and competitive dynamics
2. Benchmark companies and products
3. Identify strategic risks and opportunities
4. Package it all in fancy slides and charge 6 figures

But guess what?

AI can now do 90% of that instantly.

Let me show you how:
We use these 3 mega prompts for different tasks:

1/ The Consultant Framework

Prompt: "You are a world-class strategy consultant trained by McKinsey, BCG, and Bain. Act as if you were hired to provide a $300,000 strategic analysis for a client in the [INDUSTRY] sector.

Here is your mission:

1. Analyze the current state of the [INDUSTRY] market.
2. Identify key trends, emerging threats, and disruptive innovations.
3. Map out the top 3-5 competitors and benchmark their business models, strengths, weaknesses, pricing, distribution, and brand positioning.
4. Use frameworks like SWOT, Porter’s Five Forces, and strategic value chain analysis to assess risks and opportunities.
5. Provide a one-page strategic brief with actionable insights and recommendations for a hypothetical company entering or growing in this space.

Output everything in concise bullet points or tables. Make it structured and ready to paste into slides. Think like a McKinsey partner preparing for a C-suite meeting.

Industry: [INSERT INDUSTRY OR MARKET HERE]"
2/ The Competitive Deep Dive

Prompt: "Act like a senior consultant preparing a competitive market analysis deck for a $10B strategy client.

Your task:
- Analyze the overall landscape of the [INDUSTRY] industry.
- Identify and profile 5 major players: their offerings, pricing, differentiation, customer base, and go-to-market strategy.
- Use comparison matrices to highlight competitive positioning.
- Reveal where gaps or white space exist in the market.
- Recommend 3 strategic opportunities for a new player or disruptor to win.

Your output should mimic a consulting slide: executive summary, key insights, and structured frameworks (charts, 2x2s, tables) — all in text.

Industry: [INSERT MARKET NAME OR NICHE]"
3/ CEO Strategy Whisperer

Prompt: "You are a strategic advisor to a startup founder who wants to outsmart McKinsey-level consultants.

Here’s your assignment:

- Conduct a deep-dive market analysis on [INDUSTRY/SECTOR]
- Summarize top industry trends and inflection points in the last 12 months
- Analyze 3-5 leading competitors using SWOT + pricing + positioning + customer targeting
- Identify hidden risks (economic, regulatory, technological) in this market
- Surface opportunities and recommend 3 clear go-to-market plays
- Present this like a slide deck: bolded titles, bullet summaries, clear insights

Write in the voice of a calm, hyper-logical expert who charges $5,000/hr.

Start with a summary box. Then show insights grouped by slide title (like: “Slide 1: Market Overview”, “Slide 2: Key Trends”, etc.)

Market focus: [INSERT HERE]"
Here's how I used this in ChatGPT:
Check out Gemini results:
Grok results:
You’re not replacing McKinsey with fluff.

You’re replacing them with structured reasoning, logic, and fast iteration at zero cost.

Welcome to the end of overpriced slides.

Claude 4 Sonnet is insanely powerful.

I wrote one mega prompt and now it do:

• Market research
• Content creation
• Writing viral ad copy
• SEO optimization
• Campaign planning

All in few seconds.

Here's the exact mega prompt we use to automate our marketing tasks:
The mega prompt:

Steal it:

"
Act as a full-stack AI marketing strategist for a startup preparing to launch a new product or service. You will handle market research, positioning, messaging, content creation, email copywriting, and SEO ideation.



{Describe your product or service here}
{Who is the product for? (demographics, psychographics, industry, etc.)}
{e.g. “generate leads,” “build awareness,” “launch product,” etc.}
{e.g. “casual and fun,” “bold and punchy,” “professional and clear”}



Given the product, target audience, and goal:

1. **Customer Insight & Research**
- Generate an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)
- Identify key pain points, goals, and decision drivers
- Suggest 3 positioning angles to resonate with this audience

2. **Messaging & Conversion Copy**
- Write a hook-driven landing page (headline, subheadline, CTA section)
- Provide 3 viral headline variations
- Create a messaging matrix: [Pain Point → Promise → Proof → CTA]

3. **Content Creation**
- Generate a 7-day content plan (Twitter + LinkedIn)
- Include daily post titles, themes, and tone suggestions
- Add 1 short-form video concept if relevant

4. **Email Marketing**
- Write 3 cold email variations:
- Value-first pitch
- Problem-agitate-solution
- Case-study / social proof style

5. **SEO Strategy**
- Suggest 1 SEO topic cluster aligned with the product
- Provide 5 blog post titles that target mid-to-high intent keywords
- Recommend a pillar + supporting post structure

6. **Output Format**
- Use clear section headers (e.g. “ICP”, “Landing Page Copy”, “SEO Titles”)
- Use markdown formatting for readability
- Do **not** explain your reasoning — just give the final, polished outputs

This should be delivered as a comprehensive marketing kit, ready to deploy.

This is terrifying.

I gave Claude 1 mega prompt and it handled:

• Product strategy
• Backend code
• UI/UX design
• Landing page copy
• Go-to-market plan

All in one go.

Here’s the exact prompt I used (and what it built):
The mega prompt:

(Copy and paste in Claude)


You are my all-in-one technical cofounder, product strategist, UI/UX designer, copywriter, and launch expert.
We're building a SaaS startup together, step by step.
Your role is to guide and execute each major milestone — but only continue after I review and approve the current step.



A [INSERT PRODUCT TYPE] SaaS that helps [TARGET USER] solve [PAIN POINT] using [SHORT TECH VALUE PROP]



Start by completing the first mission below. Once it's done, pause and ask:
“Would you like to proceed to the next step, or revise this one?”

Here’s the full step-by-step sequence you’ll execute **one at a time**:
1. Validate the target audience and define the core user problem
2. Propose a focused MVP feature list (prioritize essentials only)
3. Write backend code in [Python/FastAPI/etc] to implement the MVP
4. Describe the UI/UX structure (components + layout + flow)
5. Write Webflow-ready landing page copy (headline, value, CTA)
6. Draft Twitter launch thread + Product Hunt listing
7. Outline a 7-day content strategy for initial traction

Be concise but complete. Use markdown headers to structure each output. Treat this like a collaborative startup sprint — you lead, I approve.

Gemini 2.5 Pro is scary good.

I wrote a mega prompt for Gemini that turns it into a writing assistant and it’s so good I stopped outsourcing everything.

Landing pages, LinkedIn posts, email sequences done.

Here’s the full prompt ↓ Image
If you’re a writer and not using AI for your work…
I’m 100% sure you’ll lose your job to a writer who does.

This isn’t a maybe it’s already happening. Image
And let’s be honest:

Most content today is:

- Bloated
- Robotic
- Written for algorithms, not humans

That’s why I built this.

Can Your Writer Get You Sued?

In short, YES!

In the top levels of copywriting, 8-9 figure companies are well aware of the legal consequences of what they publish.

On the flip side, most advisors / consultants never even think about this.

But if your business publishes it...
Your business can be held liable for it.

The most common legal troubles you can get into as a result of blindly publishing what you writer provides you with include:

- Libel / Defamation
- Intellectual Property Theft
- False / Misleading Advertising

The solution?
First, if you have a legal background as it relates to the above topics, you can monitor for this yourself.

Second, if you don't and you operate in an industry where any of the above could be an issue...

You'll want to hire a lawyer to look over anything you publish.

Yes...

Agency, Advisor or Coach?

These are the only two funnels that matter in 2023:

If you suck on camera:

ToFu = Twitter / LinkedIn / SEO
MoFu = Email / Off-Camera Video / Community
BoFu = Phone / Sales Page / Google Doc

If you're good on camera 👇
ToFu = TikTok + Reels + Shorts
MoFu = Email / On-Camera Video / Community
BoFu = Phone / Webinar / VSL

This is how digital service providers generate leads today.

Same applies if you're using ads.

You're just paying instead of playing the organic game.

Either way...
Don't overcomplicate this.

Get ONE ToFu channel working.

Then layer in MoFu.

Then improve your BoFu.

Stop trying to build a "community" if you're not even sending emails.

Forget about webinars if you can't even sell by phone.

But most important...

They say it's hard to make friends in your 30s

But I just moved to a new city and - six months later - my social life is more active than ever.

Here's how I built a social circle even though I'm an introvert:
1 - Got way out of my comfort zone

Ok, you probably saw this coming.

But it's unavoidable.

Especially if you move to a new city.

In my case, I dove into some Facebook / WhatsApp groups and started showing up to the meetups people were organizing.

This was critical.
From the very first meetup, I found a handful of people I vibed with who were also new to the city.

I also met a girl who organized these meetups.

As you can imagine, she was super plugged in to the social scene her.

(Helps that we also hit it off if you know what I mean ; )
