ChatGPT is a liar (or is it?)


If you ask ChatGPT to write a customer case study for you, it will. Like magic.

This prompt: "please write a customer case study for me" instantly generated a 500-word case study with great detail.

It decided the format, made up what my company does, who the customer is, what they do, how they used my product, the results they got, and even pulled some quotes from the customer's team out of thin air.

A magical lying machine.

Or, rather than assuming ChatGPT is a pathological liar, think of what it just did as a demonstration of what it can do.

Imagine what it could do if it had appropriate context and direction.

Well, to get it to generate something actually useful to you, you need to train it.

We just added a whole section on Training ChatGPT for better results in our Prompt Engineering for Customer Success course and it's a game-changer.

ChatGPT is a powerful tool... you just need to know how to use it.

Yes, address churn where it’s an issue, but also recognize that some customers are progressing and ready for expansion NOW. Here’s the truth: Even with higher churn in some cohorts, you have other...

This program is so unique because we take a different approach to Customer and Revenue retention. We focus on the differences between Proactive and Reactive Retention, how to move from the latter to the former through better prioritization, orchestration, and directing limited resources to higher-percentage activities. This program is practical in every sense of the...
