Real Story: Meet Trish

Trish is 62 and teaches leadership. She used to spend entire weekends building PowerPoint decks.

"I'd get so mad trying to make it look good," she said."Now I just pick a template, add my words, and it's done. People think I hired a designer."

That’s the power of using smart tools that work for you—not against you.

Why This Matters

Most small business owners don’t fail because they lack good ideas.

They fail because they can’t communicate their ideas clearly and quickly.

Beautiful.ai makes presentations easy to build, easy to share, and easy to love.

It’s perfect for solopreneurs, small teams, and business owners who want pro-level presentations without hiring a designer.

You’re not bad at presentations.

Your tools are.

✂️ ChatGPT: Make Easy Work Schedules

Let’s be real: making a weekly work schedule can be a pain.

For a small business owner, it takes hours. You sit there, pencil in hand, trying to match people to tasks, figure out hours, and avoid mistakes. And then someone texts you and says, “I can’t work Friday.”

The whole plan falls apart.

But what if AI (artificial intelligence) could do it for you?

🤖 ChatGPT: Your New Scheduling Assistant

ChatGPT is adaptable. You can actually use it to build your schedule—and fast. You just tell it your business, your team, and what jobs need to be done. It works out the hours for you.

Let me show you what I mean.

🛠️ Real Example: My Lawn Care Business

I run a small lawn maintenance company. I have three employees:

• John (expert – can work alone)

• Dan (adept – can work alone)

• Tom (needs supervision)

I had 10 jobs arranged for the week. Some had to happen on certain days, others could happen anytime Monday to Friday.

Here’s what I gave ChatGPT:

I have a lawn maintenance business. I have 3 employees, 2 are advanced and can work by themselves. John and Dan are the advanced employees and Tom needs to be supervised. This week I have 10 jobs. If the job does not mention when it must be done, then it can be done any day Monday-Friday. Job 1 - takes 8 man hours and must be done on Monday, Job 2 - takes 2 man hours, Job 3 - takes 15 man hours, Job 4 - takes 15 man hours and has to be Wednesday, Job 5 - takes 8 man hours, Job 6 - takes 1 man hour, Job 7 - takes 5 man hours on Friday, Job 8 - 7 man hours, Job 9 - 2 man hours, Job 10 - 15 man hours. Each person works 8 hours each day. Please create my schedule.

🧮 What ChatGPT Devised

First, it looked at the rules and limits:

• 🗓️ Workweek: Monday–Friday

• ⏱️ Each employee: 8 hours/day

• 📊 Total team capacity: 24 hours/day = 120 hours/week

• 📌 Jobs with fixed days:

  • Job 1 (8h) on Monday

  • Job 4 (15h) on Wednesday

  • Job 7 (5h) on Friday

• ✅ Jobs with flexible timing:

  • Job 2 (2h), Job 3 (15h), Job 5 (8h), Job 6 (1h), Job 8 (7h), Job 9 (2h), Job 10 (15h)

Totaled up to 106 hours of work, so it was doable in the week.

⚠️ What Turned Into A Learning Curve

The first plan ChatGPT was not accurate.

On Monday, it said:

• John: Job 1 (8h)

• Dan: Start Job 3 (8h)

• Tom: Help with Job 6 (1h) and Job 2 (2h) — supervised

But… that didn’t work.

John already had 8 hours. He couldn’t also help Tom with 3 more hours.

So I told ChatGPT:

If Tom works, one of the others must also be working on the same job. They can’t be on separate jobs.

The kinks were worked out. And it provided a much better plan.

📅 Final Schedule From ChatGPT

Here’s the simple plan:

Monday

• John: Job 1 (6h) + Job 2 (1h)

• Dan: Job 3 (8h)

• Tom: Job 1 (2h) and Job 2 (1h) — with supervision

Tuesday

• John: Job 10 (8h)

• Dan: Job 3 (7h), Job 8 (1h with Tom)

• Tom: Job 8 (4h)

Wednesday

• John: Job 4 (7h), supervise Tom (1h)

• Dan: Job 4 (8h)

• Tom: Job 8 and Job 9 (4h)

Thursday

• John: Job 10 (7h), supervise Tom (1h)

• Dan: Job 5 (8h)

• Tom: Job 5 (4h)

Friday

• John: Job 5 (4h), supervise Tom (4h)

• Dan: Job 7 (5h)

• Tom: Support tasks (4h)

💡 What I Learned

Was it perfect? No.

Was it helpful? Absolutely.

It saved me frustrating hours.

It made planning less stressful.

And honestly, it was kind of fun to see what ChatGPT could do.

If you're running a business and detest making the weekly schedule, give ChatGPT a try. Be clear. Give it your instructions. Double-check its math.

It won’t get everything right the first time—but it’s a great place to start.
