You’re familiar with Zapier (a.k.a the duct tape of the internet).

Zapier helps you connect different platforms together.

For example, when a customer checks out in Stripe they get added to your email platform (ConvertKit, Beehiiv, etc.).

Unsurprisingly…an AI rival has come out.

And it’s pretty awesome.

I built out the exact workflow above (Stripe → Beehiiv) using:

It took me about an hour. It’s $0 (Zapier was charging $29/month).

And made me realize there are so many small tasks I should automate using AI.

But my thinking is holding me back.

Instead of building the automation, I just do the task quickly and think, “next time I’ll situate it.”
I’ll think, “I’m not technical enough to update my workflow like this,” when I have ChatGPT to walk me through the entire setup
The worst thought pattern of all…”I don’t have anything to automate”

There’s ✨ always ✨ something that can be automated.

It’s just a matter of realizing how obvious it is that this task should get automated.

Since we’re, unfortunately, running our businesses with blinders on that only show us part of the whole picture…

We have to push those blinders so we can see all of the opportunities available.

In this case, figuring out what automation opportunities are incredibly easy to create and would save us:

This week’s ThinkWithAI Strategic Prompt goes through your workflow to find simple Make automations that you can build out.

I’m going to describe a workflow I do regularly.

Your job is to act like a systems-minded operator…not to overcomplicate things, but to protect my time.

First, ask me…

📚 Framework Prompt: The 5 Stages of Entrepreneurship
→ A mindset framework to help you identify which stage of the entrepreneurial curve you're in so you can respond strategically instead of emotionally.
🗣️ Simple Prompt: Help Me Protect My Energy
→ Use ChatGPT to audit where your time and energy are going and highlight what to cut or delegate so you can focus on what actually drives growth.
🔄 Update Prompt: Spot a Leverage Point
→ Tell ChatGPT what the leverage point is so it can prioritize it when we’re discussing focus, time management, or next moves.

Keep upgrading your thinking,
