Better Emails. Smarter Inventory. More Confidence.

Running a business on Main Street means juggling everything—sales, supplies, scheduling, and still showing up with a smile.
This week, we’ve got three AI prompts that help you cut through the noise and focus on what matters:

✔ Staying connected
✔ Stocking the right stuff
✔ Spending with confidence

And yep, they all take under 10 minutes to try.

1. Email That Actually Works

“Act like a local business owner who wants to stay in touch with customers. Write a short weekly email with one update, one fun fact, and a reason to stop in.”

Why it works:
Most marketing is noise. But when you show up in someone’s inbox with a quick, friendly, personal update? That’s how you stay top-of-mind—and get repeat customers.

2. Inventory Planning with Open-to-Buy

“Act as a retail inventory planner. I’ll share last month’s sales and current inventory. Suggest what to restock or skip, and create a basic open-to-buy plan.”

Why it works:
When you’re too busy to crunch numbers, AI can quickly help you spot what’s selling, what’s sitting, and what you can actually afford to reorder.

3. Cash Flow Confidence

“Act as a financial analyst. I’ll give you my monthly revenue and expenses. Help me figure out what I can safely spend on marketing—and explain it in plain English.”

Why it works:
AI won’t replace your accountant—but it will help you make smarter spending decisions without guessing. This is a great way to stress-test your next big move.

(Note: This one’s not a full blog yet, but it's too useful not to include.)
