Teach ChatGPT Who You Are

A new chat starts with whatever your settings give it and nothing else. Fifteen minutes on one screen is the difference between re-explaining your business every morning and getting answers that already know it.

Most people pay that cost twice. They retype the same three facts at the top of every chat, and when they skip the preamble they spend ten minutes bending a generic draft into something that fits. Meanwhile memory has been filling itself from months of conversations, writing entries nobody has read and forming an impression of you there is no page to check.

This course works through the whole stack in short lessons: the two controls on the Personalization screen, the three-part filter for what earns a place in them, the two halves of memory and how to read the half that can be read, the categories that should never be stored at all, and the monthly review that keeps the setup honest as your business changes. Every click path, plan limit and setting was checked against OpenAI's own documentation in October 2026.

You practise on real material along the way: seven candidate instruction lines to sort, six memory entries to prune, and a client's figures that need softening without ending up on your file.

You walk away with a written setup, a pruned memory list, and a fifteen-minute routine that keeps both current.

Who it's for

Founders and freelancers: tired of explaining the same business to the same tool every morning.

Small teams: want answers in the house tone and format without anyone pasting a style guide into a chat.

Anyone handling client material: needs a clear line between what ChatGPT should know and what it should never keep.
