I am excited to get you started with ChatGPT! You'll be amazed what you can do with this incredible new tool.
ChatGPT is a now famous AI-powered chatbot built by the company, OpenAI.
OpenAI is a quazi-nonprofit. Elon Musk was originally involved, but had a falling out. There's tons of interesting drama for those that enjoy that sort of thing, but our effort with you here will focus on how to use this powerful new tool to improve your work.
You can read more about ChatGPT on OpenAI's website here: OpenAI.com/chatgpt
Let's get you set up!
Signing up for ChatGPT has a few steps, including verifying an email and a mobile phone number (must be mobile number that can receive a text message; not a VoIP).
🖱️ Click or tap on the images below to see an example of the sign up process.
There's a minimum password requirement of 8 characters, and a few other minor points as well.

🔗 For ChatGPT on the iPhone click here » ChatGPT on the App Store
🔗 For ChatGPT on Android click here » ChatGPT on the Google Play Store
You will not need a ChatGPT Plus account for this getting started guide.
A ChatGPT Plus account currently costs $20 per month, and grants you access to GPT version 4 (with some limits), along with access to some beta features like Plugins, Browsing, Data Analytics, Custom Instructions, and more. We cover these features extensively in our full training programs, but you don't need to worry about any of that yet. There are also Team and Enterprise versions with additional data controls.
The Team Version of ChatGPT is ideal for Small Business. It allows for good privacy controls, and has all the features you'll need. It costs $25 per person per month.
Once you sign up and log in to ChatGPT, you'll have access to the following menus and features.
🖱️ Click or tap on the images below to explore the ChatGPT Interface.
⚙️ Feel free to adjust your settings now.
I personally keep history on, and use the dark theme because it's easier on the eyes. If you don't have a Plus account, you won't need to worry about Plugins, Browsing, Data Analytics, or Custom Instructions yet.
⚠️ Disclaimer: Be careful which data you choose to enter into ChatGPT. Financial, legal, confidential, and sensitive personal data should not go into the tool, at least not yet. The ChatGPT is still in a research phase. Be careful.
The first thing to know about ChatGPT, is that it communicates with you in Natural Language. You can simply talk to it, as you would another person.
This is also what makes it so extraordinary. You don't have to bend over backwards to use keywords, or sift through endless search results as you might when using a search engine. You just interact with it as you would a human... Sort of 😏
Let's look at a simple example:
Let's unpack a few things from this simple example and establish high level principles about ChatGPT:
a helpful assistant,and will do its best to give a high quality response to the prompt you enter.
You can ask ChatGPT direct questions, inquire about broad subjects, you can even just start telling a story and let ChatGPT finish it. You can put nearly any kind of text input into ChatGPT, and it will generate a response.
Let's try some:
📋 Click or tap one of the prompts below to copy it, and paste it into ChatGPT.
ChatGPT can write a whole story for you, just give it a starting line...
And, here is a slightly more elaborate example to try...
I hope that was fun! And, I hope it gives you ideas for what else you can try out.
Our ChatGPT Training programs will help you develop basic skills with ChatGPT, take you under the hood so you can understand how the system works technically, guide you in developing the most valuable advanced skills for your use cases, and show you how ChatGPT can be customized to power your tools and products with artificial intelligence.

The really massive gains you can make with ChatGPT in your business, come from customizing ChatGPT for your own purposes. Let's look at an example.
We are a training company, and leadership development is often part of our training programs. Now, with ChatGPT, we can generate leadership scenarios on the fly and evaluate people's responses. We can even go one step further and build a leadership game 😃
