Hey Claude: A Plain, Honest Guide for Busy People With No Time to Learn AI

Everybody says "just use AI." Cool. But nobody actually sits down and shows you what to type.

I looked for a good guide to hand people. Every single one was written for developers or tech people who already know what a prompt is. That is not who I teach.

I teach the person who has 400 unread emails and no time to learn a new tool. The one whose eyes glaze over the second someone says "large language model." The one who tried ChatGPT once, got a weird answer, and closed the tab.

That is who this book is for.

I will walk you through Claude from the very first screen. No account yet? Good. We start there. By the end you will know how to:

- Set it up in five minutes (free, no credit card)

- Cut a fifteen-minute email down to two minutes

- Drop in a forty-page document and pull out the five things that actually matter

- Build a small website or tool just by describing what you want

34 short chapters. Each one gives you something to try right now, not "someday." I kept every chapter short on purpose. You are busy. I know.

I have taught over five thousand people how to do this. I run a community called prompts2products where regular people build real things with AI every day. This book is how I teach: one idea at a time, no tech speak, and you walk away with a skill, not just a concept.

97 pages. PDF. Download it, open Claude in another tab, and follow along. That is the whole thing.
