Build badass AI assistants in under 15 minutes.</h1>Let’s cut straight to it.You’ve probably seen the hype about building your own custom AI tools… but the second you open ChatGPT or start Googling, your brain short-circuits from all the options.What do you build? How do you even start? And is this gonna take you hours of fiddling with prompts and praying to the tech gods?🙅‍♀️ Nope. Not on my watch.Let me walk you through the exact process I use to turn ideas into custom AI tools in under 15 minutes — even if you’re not a tech wizard.You’ll go from “no clue where to start” → to “holy sh*t, I made that?” real fast.<hr><h2 id="314c1dbc-6c20-4f76-adfb-a77ae404490f" data-toc-id="314c1dbc-6c20-4f76-adfb-a77ae404490f">🍛 Meet SPICE: The Framework That Does the Heavy Lifting</h2>This is the secret sauce. The SPICE prompt framework is part of my Knowledge to Revenue (K2R) system — designed to help you stop sitting on valuable IP and start turning it into usable tools.Here’s what it stands for:<ul><li>S – Setup (What the tool does)</li><li>P – Persona (Who the AI is acting as)</li><li>I – Instructions (Step-by-step guidance)</li><li>C – Context (Extra background to help)</li><li>E – End User (Who’s using the tool)</li></ul>Fill those 5 things in once — and boom. You've now got a custom prompt that builds a tool just for you.<div data-youtube-video=""><iframe width="640" height="480" allowfullscreen="true" autoplay="false" disablekbcontrols="false" enableiframeapi="false" endtime="0" ivloadpolicy="0" loop="false" modestbranding="false" origin="" playlist="" progressbarcolor="white" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SXBiaK62Ync" start="0"></iframe></div><hr><h2 id="9f912437-7335-4050-9954-57df667dde12" data-toc-id="9f912437-7335-4050-9954-57df667dde12">🛠️ Real Example: Social Media Content from Transcripts</h2>Let’s say you’ve got transcripts from coaching calls, client sessions, or trainings.You know there are juicy content ideas buried in there… But sifting through all that text? Total energy vampire.So here's what I built:<blockquote>🎯 A custom AI assistant that reads my transcript and turns it into 15 attention-grabbing social media post ideas — complete with hooks and captions.</blockquote>Wanna know how I did it?<hr><h2 id="a50cef64-5a04-40de-8680-cff02cc8d238" data-toc-id="a50cef64-5a04-40de-8680-cff02cc8d238">🧩 Step 1: Fill In the SPICE Form (Linked in the video)</h2>The link's under my YouTube video, but here's what I entered:<h3 id="a429e6e7-3b58-4a30-b7ed-73441ad423b3" data-toc-id="a429e6e7-3b58-4a30-b7ed-73441ad423b3">✅ Setup</h3><blockquote>This tool helps the user create a set of social media post ideas based on the transcript of a conversation.</blockquote><h3 id="771e8073-4ede-4efe-9a0b-62875f54d876" data-toc-id="771e8073-4ede-4efe-9a0b-62875f54d876">✅ Persona</h3><blockquote>Act as an experienced social media marketing professional who writes killer hooks.

No trial-and-error.Just copy → paste → build.<hr><h2 id="891b6646-36c4-4215-9d4c-ba96e03db887" data-toc-id="891b6646-36c4-4215-9d4c-ba96e03db887">💻 Step 3: Paste It Into ChatGPT and Create Your Tool</h2>In ChatGPT (Pro version), click:👉 Explore GPTs → My GPTs → Create a GPTGive your tool a name (like “Transcript to Social Ideas”) Add a quick description Paste in your SPICE prompt as the instructions Set the conversation starter (I used “Paste your transcript”) Click CreateAnd boom — it’s live.You can set it to private, share via link, or make it public on the GPT Store.<hr><h2 id="7602ed82-8f3a-47f2-8997-182557a5d539" data-toc-id="7602ed82-8f3a-47f2-8997-182557a5d539">🎉 Step 4: Upload a Transcript and Watch the Magic Happen</h2>Here’s what mine did with a 45-minute transcript:✅ Gave me 5 post ideas to pick from ✅ Turned them into 15 full content pieces ✅ Wrote hooks, captions, even helped me visualize what to postStuff like:<blockquote>“The Math of Minutes Saved: 2 minutes might not sound like much — until you repeat it 100 times.”</blockquote>Or:<blockquote>“I never touch spreadsheets anymore. What if your content tracked itself while you slept?”</blockquote>🔥 Straight-up bangers, pulled from real client convos.<hr><h2 id="65dc33ed-1d68-437a-93ed-9747437a7b5d" data-toc-id="65dc33ed-1d68-437a-93ed-9747437a7b5d">Why This Works So Well (Hint: It’s the K2R Magic)</h2>If you’re already having conversations with clients, delivering trainings, or explaining your process in voice notes — you’ve already done the work.All that insight is just sitting there, waiting to be turned into:<ul><li>Offers</li><li>Content</li><li>Products</li><li>Tools</li></ul>That’s what the Knowledge to Revenue process is all about: Taking what you already know → packaging it into assets that save time or make money.This SPICE-based tool is one of those assets.<hr><h2 id="616d8972-45c9-40bd-85bc-9d2364109208" data-toc-id="616d8972-45c9-40bd-85bc-9d2364109208">Final Thoughts (Before You Overthink It)</h2>You don’t need to be a prompt engineer.
