How This Image Was Created And Why It’s About More Than a Prompt You may be looking at this infographic and thinking: “I want my AI to produce outputs like this.” Here’s the important truth. This result didn’t come from a clever prompt alone. It came from training AI to think the way the business thinks. That is the difference between generic AI output and strategic, on-brand results. The Prompt Used (What Most People Focus On) Below is an example of a high-quality image prompt using my business as the case study. Image Prompt Example > Create a vertical, professional infographic titled “10 Rules to Protect Your Profit as You Scale.” Design style: modern, executive, clean, and authoritative. Color palette: navy blue background, white text, gold accents. Layout: two-column structure with 10 numbered rules, each paired with a clear business icon. Content focus: operational discipline, profit protection, scalability, accountability, and systems. Footer text: “AI + Blueprints for Business Jessica Marie | apmjcorp.com” Include a small circular professional headshot in the bottom corner. Visual tone: confident, polished, and strategic. Designed for established business owners and operators. This prompt is strong. But on its own, it is not enough. Why the Prompt Works And Why Prompts Alone Usually Don’t AI does not create strategic output because of wording alone. It creates strong output when it understands: How your business thinks What you prioritize What you reject What “good” actually means in your operation Without that context, AI fills in the gaps with generic assumptions. This is why many businesses struggle to get consistent, usable results. The Real Process: Training AI With Your Business Brain Before asking AI to create anything, you must first teach it how your business operates. Below is a simple framework any business can use.

Day 1 Recap: Shifting the Lens from External to Internal We just wrapped up Day 1 of the Uncover Cash Challenge, and I have to say, today was powerful. We kicked things off by talking about each student’s business and what they felt was their biggest challenge. At first, most answers focused on external issues, things like client agreements, pricing, or funding. All valid, but that’s not what we’re unpacking this week. Today’s goal was to shift that lens inward, to start thinking about what’s happening inside your operations. Because the reality is, money leaks don’t always start outside the business. They often live in how we work, what we track (or don’t), and the processes we rely on every day. By the end of class, I started to see the shift. Students began connecting the dots between their processes, systems, and outcomes, realizing that every business, no matter the product or service, runs on operations. That awareness alone is step one to uncovering cash in your business. Let’s keep that momentum rolling into Day 2. 🔥
