Smart marketers don’t just use ChatGPT to write faster. They use it to think better. If you’re only using ChatGPT for content creation, you’re leaving its best feature on the table: the ability to act as a thinking partner. Try one of these 8 prompts next time you're stuck on a strategy, decision, or idea: 1. Challenge my thinking Here’s what I’m planning: [insert your idea, plan, or strategy] Act as a critical thinker. Question my assumptions, logic, or blind spots — but don’t rewrite anything. I want to stress test my own thinking, not get new ideas. 2. Reframe through a different lens Here’s the core idea I’m working with: [insert your idea] Help me reframe it through a different lens — like a new audience POV, emotional trigger, or brand positioning angle. 3. Translate my gut feeling Something about this feels off, but I can’t explain why: [describe the situation, message, or tactic] Help me put words to the tension I’m sensing. What might be misaligned or unclear? 4. Structure my messy thinking Here’s a braindump of what I’m thinking: [insert notes, fragments, half-formed ideas] Organize this into a clear structure or outline — but don’t change the voice or inject new ideas. 5. Help me face the decision Here’s the context I’m working with: [insert project/situation] What decision am I avoiding or overcomplicating? Reflect back where I’m hesitating or dragging things out. 6. Surface the deeper question Here’s the situation I’m thinking through: [insert idea or challenge] Help me surface the real strategic question underneath this. What should I actually be asking myself? 7. Spot execution risks This is the strategy I’m planning to roll out: [insert plan or outline] Walk me through how this could go wrong in real-world execution. Think about resourcing, timing, team alignment, dependencies, etc. 8. Reverse-engineer my gut instinct Here’s what I’m thinking, and it feels right to me: [insert your idea or insight] Can you help me unpack why this might be a smart move — even if I can’t fully explain it yet? Use these to unlock smarter strategy, faster decisions, and sharper ideas, without second-guessing yourself. — ♻️ Found this useful?
