AI isn't here to replace your voice–it's here to help you amplify it. As someone juggling the day-to-day chaos of property management and running a business, I know how easy it is to let marketing slide to the bottom of your to-do list. That's why I'm such a big fan of using tools like ChatGPT as a content creation assistant, not a copy-and-paste robot. When you combine the power of AI with your unique experiences and personal brand voice, that's when the magic happens.In this episode, I'm walking you through exactly how I use ChatGPT to brainstorm ideas, write captions, repurpose podcast episodes, and even whip up email newsletters without losing the Kylie-ness in my content. I also share some of my favourite prompt strategies, tips for avoiding robotic-sounding copy, and how to make sure your message still feels real and relatable. Whether you're managing a team or building your personal brand, these tools can seriously lighten your load–without sacrificing your personality.So if you've been curious (or maybe a little hesitant) about dipping your toe into the AI pool, this one's for you. I want you to see AI not as a threat to your creativity, but as the support system that gives you more time to be creative. In this episode of the Property Management Podcast, I share practical strategies to help you embrace AI tools confidently and use them to elevate your content and connect more authentically with your audience."Start with a brand voice, speak to your audience, and add a real story just one of those tweaks makes a huge difference." - Kylie WalkerWe explore:The role of AI, specifically ChatGPT, in property management marketing.Importance of crafting detailed prompts for AI to generate personalized content.Strategies for maintaining a unique brand voice in AI-generated content.The significance of storytelling and personal experiences in marketing.Building trust and connection with the audience through authentic content.Practical tips for using AI tools in content creation, such as brainstorming and drafting.Examples of how to incorporate brand tone and audience targeting in prompts.The balance between leveraging AI as a supportive tool and retaining personal creativity.Encouragement for property managers, especially women, to embrace technology in their marketing efforts.Resources and community support for further learning about AI in property management.Connect with Done For You ServicesDone For You Services - https://dfys.com.au/Find out about our Done For You Social Media Management - https://dfys.mykajabi.com/done-for-you-smFind out about our Done for You Lead Generation - https://dfys.mykajabi.com/done-for-you-lead-generationConnect with Done For You Services: https://www.instagram.com/doneforyouservices_/Kylie's ResourcesProperty Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchoolDigital Marketing School: https:

In a time when short-term fundraising feels relentless, planned giving offers something rare: stability.Planned giving often seems like a strategy reserved for large institutions or a distant concern for smaller nonprofits.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to invest in the well-being of our community.   Food Insecure Households For many families in the U.S., the past several years have been difficult. Higher food prices, economic instability, and other factors have made providing for a family even harder. 1 in 8 households in the U.S. is food insecure. That means these families don't have enough money or resources to buy enough food for everyone in their household. As recently as 2022, 7.3 million children lived in food insecure households. Also, 16.9% of children live in poverty.   SNAP Benefits More than 22 million U.S. households use SNAP benefits to help with food costs, as of April 2023. Sometimes known as “food stamps,” SNAP is the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. People who receive SNAP benefits can use it to buy groceries, seeds, and plants for food. SNAP cannot be used to purchase hot food or household items like cleaning supplies, vitamins, or diapers.   CONNECT WITH Cedric Francis Website: https://www.lead2greatness.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cedricbfrancis X (twitter): https://twitter.com/cedricbfrancis Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leadtogreatness/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cedric-b-francis-a0544037/
