The Smartest AI Tools for Business Owners (You Can Try One Free)
Stop wasting time on repeat tasks. This free AI tool shows you what to automate — and how much you’ll save.


AI can write sonnets, invent recipes, and diagnose rare diseases — but somehow, my phone still thinks I meant to type “ducking” in every text. Progress is weird like that. This week, we’re diving into the smart (and sometimes hilarious) ways AI can actually make your life easier.
What’s Inside This Week?
Steal these AI shortcuts (and one ridiculous LinkedIn challenge) for your business.
How businesses are using Custom GPTs to move faster
Turning blogs into newsletters in under 5 minutes
ChatGPT’s new shopping tool — and what it means for you
A LinkedIn challenge: roast your own bio (publicly)
Clone Your Brain — Without the Ethical Dilemmas

Every hour you spend writing emails, onboarding clients, or drafting content is time you’ll never get back.
It’s time to stop working harder and start working smarter.
We built something for you:
👉 The 10X Automation Advisor — a free GPT that shows you:
Where your business is leaking time
How much it's costing you
How to build your own Custom GPT to fix it
No tech skills needed. No sales pitch. Just a real ROI plan you can act on.
If you want more time and more profits without hiring more people, you’ll want to try this.
And it's free — because you need to experience it to believe it.
The smartest move you’ll make today might take less than 5 minutes.
Tools of the Week: Zapier Agents (Your New Digital Interns)
Zapier just leveled up. Their new Agents feature isn’t just about automating tasks — it’s about giving AI the power to think a little on its own.

You can now set up "agents" that don’t just follow simple triggers, but actually make decisions, solve problems, and move projects forward while you’re busy doing real work (or pretending to). Think: answering customer questions, updating CRM records, even drafting emails — automatically.
If you’ve ever dreamed of cloning yourself without needing a sci-fi lab, this is it.
Real-World Use Case: Steel Companies turns Blogs into Newsletter — Fast

A national steel manufacturing company is using a Custom GPT we built to streamline their content game.
They drop in a full blog post, and in less than five minutes, the AI extracts the key ideas, simplifies the language, and formats it into a short, value-packed email newsletter. It’s clear, punchy, and ready to send to their subscriber list — without needing an entire marketing team.
Instead of spending hours rewriting and editing, they get a clean first draft almost instantly — just tweak if needed.
The result?
“Consistent content, more touchpoints with customers, and a major boost in efficiency. It’s one of the smartest content shortcuts we’ve ever seen.”
Try this Just For Fun: Roast Your Bio (Without Changing it)
Feeling brave?
Keep your real bio serious — but ask ChatGPT to write a LinkedIn post roasting it like a stand-up comedian. Not a rewrite, just a funny post about you.
Here’s the exact prompt to use:
“Write a LinkedIn post that lightly roasts my professional bio, as if you were a stand-up comedian. Keep it friendly, clever, and use the hashtags #RoastYourOwnBio and #SmarterBusinessWithAI.”
You might get crowned the “Sultan of Zoom Meetings” or the “Wizard of Unread Emails.” Post it if you dare — we’ll be cheering you on.
Ai in The News: ChatGPT shopping is a Game-Changer for Businesses
Small businesses just got a serious upgrade.

OpenAI has added shopping capabilities to ChatGPT, making it easier than ever for brands to get their products in front of the right customers — fast.
Instead of buyers digging through endless search results, they can now ask ChatGPT directly for product recommendations — and businesses using AI-friendly marketplaces have a shot at showing up instantly.
If you’re thinking about scaling your online presence or selling smarter (not harder), this new feature could open a whole new pipeline of discovery — and faster buying decisions.
