Make ChatGPT work better for your business

A free two-file pack: a beginner PDF to read first and a guided .md setup skill to upload into ChatGPT, helping you configure it around how your business actually works.

This is a guided setup file, not automatic software. It does not install anything or change your account on its own. ChatGPT reads it and interviews you; you decide what to save.

What the setup covers

  • 01

    Custom Instructions

    A one-question-at-a-time interview helps create your Custom Instructions, including a first-name check. You review and save the instructions yourself.

  • 02

    Find your available memory settings

    The guide helps you find the memory settings available in your account. You choose which settings to use; availability can differ.

  • 03

    An optional devil's advocate choice

    Choose whether to use a devil's advocate question before new requests, then run a visible behaviour check to see whether ChatGPT follows the instruction.

  • 04

    Reference my writing style (optional)

    Use the optional Reference my writing style setting where available, or provide a writing sample with your request as a fallback.

Get the two-file setup pack

One request gives you the beginner PDF and the .md setup skill, here and by email. No additional subscription is needed.

Not required for the pack and separate from the five-email setup follow-ups. See our Privacy Notice.

Your information is used to provide the files and any communications you separately choose. It is never sold or shared for third-party marketing. See our Privacy Notice for details.

How to use it

Four steps. No technical knowledge needed.

  1. Step 1Download both files and read the PDF firstOne form request unlocks the beginner PDF and the .md setup skill. Save each using its own button, then read the PDF for step-by-step guidance.
  2. Step 2Open a new, ordinary ChatGPT chatNot a custom GPT or project. A plain new chat is all you need.
  3. Step 3Attach the .md setup skillUse the attach or upload control in the message box and add the Markdown (.md) file, rather than the PDF.
  4. Step 4Ask ChatGPT to follow itType: Please follow this guide and ask me one question at a time. Then answer as you go.

Cannot attach files? Open the downloaded file in any text editor, copy the full contents and paste them into a new chat instead, then ask ChatGPT to follow the guide one question at a time.

Worth knowing first

  • ChatGPT features such as Memory and Custom Instructions vary by plan, region and app version, and they change over time. Some steps may look different for you.
  • After setup, test how ChatGPT behaves with a few real tasks and adjust anything that does not suit you.
  • We cannot guarantee particular results. ChatGPT can still make mistakes, so check important outputs before relying on them.
  • Avoid sharing confidential or personal information about customers or staff during the interview.
