Copy-and-paste prompts built for moving companies, using one simple formula: role, context, task, format. Start with the "interview me" prompt if you've never used AI, then work through capturing job data, turning it into decisions, writing SOPs and checklists, sales follow-ups, customer communication, and review and claims responses. Ends with a first-week plan you can start Monday.
The companion to the Playbook. The Playbook teaches you to prompt; the Tool Shed shows you where to build. Each tool comes with what it is, what a mover would use it for, and a starter prompt: Claude and ChatGPT for mini-apps, Netlify for free hosting, Firebase and Google Forms for saving data, plus NotebookLM, Dify, Zapier, and Canva. No developer required.
The pre-trip inspection site built live in the session is yours, free. It's one file with nothing to install, and it runs a full DOT-style truck and moving-gear inspection on any phone. Download it, then use the guide to make it your own with whatever AI assistant you already use.
Open it in any browser to run an inspection and share the report. Try it here first.
Rebrand it, add a crew PIN, your truck numbers, a Spanish toggle, auto-email to dispatch, and more. No coding.
Four rules from the improv stage that work just as well on a moving job: "yes, and," make your partner look good, listen to react instead of to reply, and commit to the scene. Each one comes with what it looks like in your shop and one thing to try this week, for customers, crews, and dispatch alike.
Want help putting any of this to work, have a prompt that worked great for you, or an idea to collaborate on? Reach out to Tim directly.
