Write the week's Facebook posts with ChatGPT and keep one post every couple of weeks in your own words
Benjamin Schneider, owner of The Wyoming Handyman in Cheyenne, Wyoming, on The Handyman Success Podcast
He uses ChatGPT (the free version at the time) to write Facebook posts, with a one-line request such as "write a handyman business Facebook post promoting furniture assembly services"; it writes a couple of paragraphs with emojis and hashtags, and the post can be reworked in the same conversation, for example to add an invitation to visit the website. He posts it with a photo of the work on the business page, in local Facebook groups and on his personal profile, and cross-posts the same post to his other platforms. He has also tried Google's Bard (now Gemini). Every couple of weeks he writes a post himself, not with AI, to keep a personal touch for the community.

The problem
A solo handyman doing all his marketing organically enjoys writing posts but finds it slow, and posting to every group and platform takes time.
What happened
He says he spends no more than an hour a week on marketing and calls it a huge game changer. He warns against letting AI write a whole website without your own voice. His revenue growth is business context, not an AI result. Self-reported.

How to set it up yourself
- What The Wyoming Handyman does: the owner asks ChatGPT for a Facebook post about one service, posts it with a photo of a real job to his page, local groups and other platforms, and writes a personal, non-AI post every couple of weeks.
- Once a week, pick the services you want more of (furniture assembly, TV mounting, honey-do lists) and the photos of recent jobs that show them.
- Paste the prompt below into ChatGPT once per post. Ask for changes in the same chat, such as "shorter", "add our website" or "less salesy".
- Post one a day or one every other day rather than several a day; he says people tune out after too many. Every couple of weeks, write one post yourself about what you did that day in your town.
