You can create Skills when you are using the new Chat GPT Work. A skill is something that is repeatable and they help you become a lot more efficient when using an AI. You can create skills that will help you with your marketing content  (Brand style skill, Writing style skill, Brand context skill) and you can also create skills for tasks that you regularly ask an AI to do. 

In this video I'm covering how to create a brand skill in Chat GPT. 

Claude initially developed Skills and if you have created some in Claude you can easily import them into Chat GPT.

Skills are currently only available in the paid version of Chat GPT.

All the best

PS: If you are a member of our Digital Marketing School don't forget you can watch my latest course covering Chat GPT Work on the member's website. It is a recording of the recent Live Zoom for members and explains in detail how to create and use Skills.

Chat GPT Work can now turn all of your receipts into an expense claim. Simply take photos of your receipts, put them in a desktop folder and let ChatGPT read them, build your spreadsheet and calculate the totals automatically.

You can even set it up on a schedule

​💡 Note: You’ll need a paid ChatGPT plan and the desktop app to access this feature.

Chat GPT is moving towards doing tasks and in upcoming videos I'll show you more examples

Chat GPT has recently rolled out it's biggest update in over three years called Chat GPT Work.

There are now two ways to use Chat GPT - Chat and Work. It's currently available for paid users and new features include
🎯 Skills for repeatable tasks
🎯 Plugins for connecting to 3rd party tools
🎯 A desktop app where it can do tasks on your PC
🎯 An inbuilt browser
🎯 An area called sites for creating sites / apps / dashboards

Essentially they have copied all of the things people love about Claude and these additions make Chat GPT a far more useful tool for businesses.

Look out for upcoming videos where I will demonstrate the new features.

You can connect Chat GPT to your canva account. One of the benefits is that you can then easily open a chat GPT image in Canva and then do any editing you want. This will save you time and give you more control over your designs.

You can now rearrange your Instagram grid. This is very useful for marketing because instead of your grid appearing in chronological order  it makes it easier to ...

🎯 Keep very popular content near the top and move less popular content lower

🎯 Keep more than 3 pinned posts / reels about current promotions near the top

🎯 Keep your grid looking eye catching and on brand

🎯 Treat your Instagram grid like a landing page to showcase your products and services.

In this video I show you how it works
