The RTCO Method: How I Taught a Founder to Stop Getting "Rubbish" Results from ChatGPT #29 β€” Stop getting "rubbish" AI results. Learn the 4-step RTCO prompt engineering framework to unlock real generative AI productivity for your business.

Getting "rubbish" results from ChatGPT?

The problem isn't the AI. It's your prompt

I gave a founder a simple 4-step framework that instantly 10x'd his results.

I break down the RTCO method in my new post.

It's a hard question to be honest, I personally measure them by the systems I manage to put in place rather than the visible marketing. How do you do it?

My first 6 months as a #founder I felt like I was failing
I was chasing the visible momentum I was used to from corporate

The reality? The most important work was happening underground.
I wasn't building momentum, I was building roots

Trust the unseen progress

We've made #marketing too complex.

Founders are burning cash on channels that don't work.

Your competitive edge isn't a bigger budget.
It's radical clarity.

I'll let you in on a secret, it's never over. You just deal with it better.
The day you realise that no one has a clue what they're doing, you're more comfortable with these growing pains :)

Stop wasting millions on glossy brochures and paid ads nobody trusts.

Your university's most powerful marketing asset is already on campus, and it's not your marketing team.

4. The Inevitable Result:

More trust β†’ πŸ“ˆ Higher engagement β†’ Better-qualified applicants β†’ πŸ€‘ Increased enrolment .

Stop selling the dream and start sharing the reality.

3. The Social Proof Flywheel:

One official post feels like an ad.

A dozen students sharing their "day in the life" on Instagram feels like a movement.

#Ambassadors put your social proof on autopilot.

2. The Relatability Engine:

Prospects don't see themselves in a 40-year-old marketing director.

They see their future selves in a current student who shares their anxieties and excitement.

That connection is un-buyable.

1. The Authenticity Gap:

Your marketing team is paid to say great things.

A student ambassador is trusted to tell the real story.

#GenZ can spot the difference from a mile away.

This isn't complicated. It's about shifting from broadcasting to building belief.

The data on Gen Z is undeniable. After a decade of seeing polished, corporate-speak, they've developed an allergy to it.

They don't trust institutions; they trust individuals.
