Hello, lovely AI Grimm family. Thank you to the members of the community who were so open today about where their businesses really are at the end of 2026. It is always a delight to talk with you, and honest answers are exactly how we get more clarity in our businesses.
I had a lot of quiet time to think lately, and I kept coming back to one thing: so many of us work in a silo and never get to look at our business from the outside. So on this Wednesday call I walked you through three prompts that roast your business a little, kindly, using your own files and past chats.
We also covered the top 15 documents every business should have, and what to do if you do not have any yet. The replay lives inside the community. Open the three lessons below, or just the one you need.
Skool visitors, and quiet communities
How do I know where my Skool visitors are coming from, and why are they not turning into members?
Skool will often just say "direct" or "network," which does not tell you much. So ask them. Put out a post in your community along the lines of "I am so curious, where did you come from?" and you will usually get a small pool of answers. You can also message the members who came in through your link and ask what they saw first. A few honest answers are worth more than a dashboard here.
If people join but do not move up to the next level, that is the same question again. What did they expect, and what did they find?
Skool communities feel quiet right now. Is it just me?
I see it too. I check the numbers every week and compare them with the weeks before, and there is a tiredness out there. Too many communities, too many information blasts from seminars, and people are busy with life. I think many of us are moving toward quality over quantity, and I think our members want that too.
If you tried something and it did not work, that is not a failure. You tried it, you learned from it, and you can pause it. Letting go of one thing is part of business because it makes room for what works or what you are passionate about.
How long a business takes, and the product that sells
How long does it take to build a business?
Longer than we want. The old line is that a business older than five years is no longer a hobby, but I think one to two years is not enough to build one anymore. Three to five years is more realistic, and sometimes longer before you know what to adjust. Add family, children, partners who answer slowly, and permits and licenses, and it makes sense that things take time. You are doing better than you think.
What do I do when I sell a lot of one product but I have many others?
Look at what really sells and build the plan around that one. I sold textile pieces at art fairs with 16 different patterns, and people always went for the same three. They needed to see the other thirteen because the colorful booth stopped them, but they took home the conservative colors. You often do not need much more than a few products that work really well.
So take one product and ask how many you would need to sell each month to reach your goal.
The top 15 documents
What are the top 15 documents every business should have in AI Grimm?
The short version is everything that tells the AI who your customers are and what you sell. Your customers' pain points, objections and desires. Your offers and prices. The words on your website and any sales copy. Your testimonials. And the real conversations: DMs, emails, comments in your Skool groups, questions that come in, the "when is it back in stock" messages, and even the reasons someone asked for a refund or left.
All of that is gold. If something is unclear, go back to that person and ask if you can message them with a few more questions.
If you are new to business, start with New to business? Use these prompts for clarity!, inside the community.
I do not have these documents yet. Where do I start?
Use the Business Prompts inside AI Grimm. There are over 170, and many of them simply ask you questions: who do you help, what are you selling, what are your price points. Answer them, then save the result to your files. You do not need all 15 at once. Start with who you help and what you sell, and add as you go.
Start in Business Prompts. Your first 15 documents lesson walks you through it, also inside the community.
The three prompts and settings
What are the three prompts, and how do I use them?
Paste the first prompt into your assistant with your business, and the amount you want to make each month. It gives you an honest, friendly scorecard from your files and past chats, covering things like your offer, proof, and how a stranger finds you, and ends with a verdict and a few fixes. If it asks questions, answer those first.
Then paste the second prompt, which helps you fix the gaps. It works from your real numbers, like your list size, social following and income from the last 90 days, so be honest there. Last, paste the third prompt for your 30-day visibility plan, with the emails to send and the homework for the month. Start small, like $500 or $1,000, if you want, then run it again as your numbers change. The three prompts live in the lesson inside the community. I am not pasting them here.
All three prompts are in the Can you make $2,000? lesson, inside the community.
Which settings should I use for this?
Four things. Turn on all sources, turn on web search, choose Claude Sonnet 4.6, and use the Strategic Advisor voice. Sonnet is smart and still affordable, and the Strategic Advisor voice goes deeper into business than the All Around voice. The lesson includes a screenshot of these four settings.
If you want a voice that already knows your business, go to My Voice and create your own, or finish your chat by asking your assistant to create your business voice persona and give you the fields to fill in. Then you do not have to explain your audience and prices every time.
What to do with the homework
What do I do with the homework it gives me?
Start with a small group of about ten people who can give you honest feedback and testimonials. It will almost always come back to that. Then write down what people tell you after each sale or conversation, because we forget. A recording device helps me, and I also note how they looked when they said it.
Feedback does not have to be a typed testimonial. A handwritten note you photograph and put on your website works too. People want to know there is a real human behind what they buy, and I believe that is where more and more trust comes from.
Things to try this week
- Open New to business? Use these prompts for clarity! if you need the prompts that get those documents clear. That lesson is inside the community.
- If you have none yet, open Business Prompts and answer the questions for who you help and what you sell, then save the results to your files. Your first 15 documents lesson walks you through it inside the community.
- Set your assistant to all sources, web search on, Claude Sonnet 4.6 and the Strategic Advisor voice.
- Run the first prompt from the Can you make $2,000? lesson, and answer any questions it asks before moving on. That lesson is inside the community.
- Paste the second prompt to fix the gaps, then the third for your 30-day visibility plan. All three prompts are in that same lesson.
- Ask five to ten people for honest feedback this week, and write down what they say.
Brainstorming is always better with a group, so if you want to go deeper on something or talk through a product idea, tell me and I will open a Wednesday call.
Lovely and many greetings. Come and find me inside the community. xx Katrin
