A Claude Agent Skill (and ChatGPT system prompt) that turns any LLM into a 6-month-veteran AI assistant for a specific small business — instead of generic ChatGPT, you get a vertical-tuned AI that speaks your industry's language and references your real tools, team, and operational pains.
Built for the Claude for Small Business ecosystem and the open Agent Skills standard.
When a small business owner asks an LLM "how do I use AI in my [industry]," generic ChatGPT gives generic advice. This skill recognizes the question, runs a quick 6-question intake about the owner's actual business, and outputs three deliverables:
- A master prompt — paste into Claude or ChatGPT, AI now behaves like a 6-month veteran of THAT specific business
- 6 workflow superprompts — ready-to-paste prompts for the highest-leverage tasks in that vertical (new client emails, Google review responses, upsell sequences, vendor management, staff training, etc.)
- A 30-day deployment roadmap — exactly what to deploy when, with measurable milestones
All free, MIT licensed, copy-paste-ready.

If you're using Claude Code, Claude Cowork, or the Claude Agent SDK:
# Drop this skill folder into your project's .claude/skills/ directory:
cp -r clawvr-smb-ai-strategy /path/to/your/project/.claude/skills/
# OR install globally to your user-level skills:
cp -r clawvr-smb-ai-strategy ~/.claude/skills/Then in Claude Code, the skill auto-activates when a user prompt matches the skill's signal phrases (defined in SKILL.md frontmatter).
Copy the content of SKILL.md (skip the YAML frontmatter), paste it into a new ChatGPT conversation, then describe your small business. ChatGPT will follow the skill's instructions to walk you through the 6-question intake and generate your AI Operating System.

- AI Strategy for Real Estate Agents

End every answer with one concrete next step a stylist or front-desk rep can do today. Brand voice: warm, confident, never preachy.Workflow Superprompt 1: VIP Client Rebook SMS
