# Resource Drop Club — AI Workflow Starter Pack for Solopreneurs

Drop 01 | A practical planning and operations resource

## Start here: a 30-minute weekly AI planning workflow

Use AI to organize your thinking, not to replace it. Set aside 30 minutes at the start of the week.

1. **Gather the raw material (5 min).** Open your calendar, task list, active projects, and notes from the previous week.
2. **Choose your priorities (10 min).** Use the Weekly priority setter prompt below. Edit the result until the three outcomes are realistic.
3. **Plan the support (10 min).** Use the Calendar reality check prompt. Reserve blocks for focus, admin, and follow-through.
4. **Set the review (5 min).** Write down what evidence you want to see on Friday: progress, unanswered questions, and decisions to revisit.

## 15 copy-and-paste prompts

### Planning

1. **Weekly priority setter**
   Act as my chief of staff. Based on these commitments: [PASTE], help me choose the three outcomes that matter most this week. For each, give me the next physical action, the decision it requires, and what I should defer. Keep the answer to one page.

2. **Calendar reality check**
   Review this week’s calendar: [PASTE]. Identify where my stated priorities and time allocation disagree. Suggest a revised schedule with focus blocks, admin windows, and a 20% buffer. Do not add more than 35 hours of planned work.

3. **Project brief**
   Turn this rough project idea into a one-page brief: [PASTE]. Include the outcome, audience, scope, constraints, first milestone, and three open questions I need to answer before I start.

4. **Decision memo**
   Help me decide between these options: [PASTE]. Ask only the questions that materially change the decision, then create a concise memo with criteria, trade-offs, recommendation, and the next action.

### Marketing

5. **Customer-language extractor**
   Read these customer notes, reviews, or call excerpts: [PASTE]. Pull out recurring pains, desired outcomes, exact phrases worth preserving, objections, and three messaging angles. Do not invent quotes.

6. **One idea, many formats**
   Adapt this core idea: [PASTE] for a LinkedIn post, a concise email, and a 45-second video outline. Keep the promise consistent, use a grounded tone, and end each version with one specific call to action.

7. **Offer clarity check**
   Review this offer description: [PASTE]. Flag vague claims, missing specifics, and possible confusion about who it is for. Rewrite it using plain language: problem, format, what is included, and what is not included.

8. **Content brief**
   Create a practical content brief for [TOPIC] aimed at [AUDIENCE]. Include the reader’s question, a useful point of view, an outline, source ideas to verify, and a simple CTA. Avoid unsupported performance claims.

### Operations

9. **SOP drafter**
   Convert this repeated task into a simple SOP: [PASTE]. Write the trigger, inputs, steps, quality check, owner, and definition of done. Highlight any step that should stay human-led.

10. **Meeting-to-actions**
    Turn these meeting notes into a clean action list: [PASTE]. Group by owner, include due dates only when stated, separate decisions from follow-ups, and identify anything unclear that needs an owner.

11. **Process bottleneck scan**
    Map this workflow: [PASTE]. Identify handoffs, waiting points, duplicated work, and failure risks. Recommend the smallest sensible change to reduce friction without adding a paid tool.

12. **Client handoff**
    Draft a client handoff email for this completed work: [PASTE]. Confirm what was delivered, how to use it, any decisions still needed, and the next checkpoint. Keep the tone direct and professional.

### Customer support

13. **Reply first draft**
    Draft a helpful reply to this customer message: [PASTE]. Acknowledge the issue, state what you can confirm, give the next step, and avoid promising anything not established in the message.

14. **FAQ builder**
    From these customer questions: [PASTE], create a concise FAQ. Group related questions, answer in plain language, and flag any answer that needs a policy decision instead of an assumption.

15. **Support pattern review**
    Review these support tickets: [PASTE]. Summarize recurring issues, likely root causes, quick documentation fixes, and one product or process question to investigate. Separate evidence from inference.

## Three simple automation blueprints

### 1. The weekly briefing file

Keep a single document called **Weekly Briefing** in a folder you already use. Every Friday, paste your calendar, active projects, and open loops into the planning prompt. Save the AI’s output at the top, then copy only the chosen actions into your task list.

You need: a calendar export or screenshot, a document, and the planning prompt.

### 2. The response-ready support folder

Create a folder with one document for common answers and another for anonymized past tickets. When a new question arrives, paste the question and the relevant approved answer into the reply prompt. Review and send the draft yourself.

You need: email, a shared document, and your approved policies.

### 3. The content repurposing queue

Keep a running list of finished client work, conversations, and notes. Once a week, choose one item and run it through the customer-language and one-idea-many-formats prompts. Add the approved outputs to your content calendar.

You need: a notes app, a document, and a simple publishing calendar.

## Weekly review template

Set aside 20 minutes at the end of the week. Save your answers with your Weekly Briefing.

1. **What moved?** What did I finish, decide, or learn that materially advanced the work?
2. **What stalled?** What waited on a decision, input, or handoff? What is the smallest next step?
3. **What did customers tell me?** Capture exact language, recurring questions, and evidence that changes your assumptions.
4. **What should I stop carrying?** Name one commitment, task, or idea to defer, delegate, or remove.
5. **What begins Monday?** Write the three outcomes that deserve space in next week’s plan.
