My Guide to Prompting Techniques
I posted this earlier on LinkedIn, and wanted to share here since the group is a niche of peers. I'm going to be using this as part of my pipeline/sales process. Interested to get people's feedback. I'm already exploring taking each of the industry sections and expanding them for additional versions. Did you learn anything new? How could it be improved? What else would be valuable to include? From LinkedIn: "Over the summer, I kept running into more and more types of prompts that as I worked with them, began increasing my daily work output significantly. Let me be clear, using prompts with LLMs like Claude, ChatGPT, and more isn't about cutting and pasting responses, transforming my work into an army of parrot paste. Prompts are one of the most powerful ways I've found to demonstrate expertise in your field. If you ask simple questions, you get simple answers. If you ask advanced, specific requests that are highly detailed, you can become an army of one. Everything that comes from the LLMs today is something that's been said by someone else. Predicted patterns. A summary of the knowledge before. Your job is to use the outputs as the starting point, and push it beyond. Something the LLMs can't do today. This PDF is packed with various techniques and examples of dozens of prompting styles, including how to use them with business frameworks you're familiar with like a SWOT analysis or planning SMART goals. I've shared this eBook with workshop and webinar attendees, but I want everyone in my network to benefit from it. Feel free to share it with people in your network too. Did you try a new prompting style and get a result that surprised you? Let me know what you think. I'd love to hear if it helps in your day to day work."
