💬 Copy-paste prompts

Tap Copy prompt, paste it into your AI (Grok, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini), then replace the [yellow bits] with your own details.

💬 PR campaign

Your ongoing job: get [business name] ([website]) mentioned and linked on relevant, reputable websites.
Targets: [e.g. Malaysian business directories, property blogs, local news sites, industry associations].
You may: research targets and submit to free, legitimate business directories.
Ask me first before: emailing any person, paying anything, creating accounts that need my ID.
Keep the tracker [sheet name] accurate: never mark something 'live' until you have seen the link on the page.
Every day at [5 p.m.] message me: actions taken, replies needing me, and anything now live.

⚠️ Tips & common mistakes

Avoid paid or spammy link schemes; they can hurt your Google ranking.
Directory listings are a start; real articles and partner mentions matter more.
Insist on proof (a live link) before anything is counted as a win.

🌟 Why it's worth it

💡 Why it mattersBeing mentioned on other websites helps you get found on Google and in AI answers, but outreach is slow, repetitive work.

🏷️ Real exampleAfter day one the tracker showed 13 outreach or submission actions and one checked live directory link; the author honestly separates 'submitted' from 'published'.
