Scale Smarter with AI-Supercharged Copy | 💛 Copywriting + AI + Personal Branding

You don’t need a massive agency
to gain massive leverage.

Most founders I work with hit the same wall.

After a few years in business, growth slows, 
referrals become unpredictable and competitors start showing up. 

They realise that they have a business but they don’t have a brand.
That’s where I come in. 

As your Fractional Content Strategist, I embed directly into your business 
to own the work that matters most— your positioning, strategy, and how it all converts.

No junior handoffs.No rotating agency teams.No fragmented direction.
Just one partner who drives growth. 

Together, we build a brand that doesn’t just look good, 
but works hard for your business—with clear positioning, 
sharp narratives, and human X AI systems designed to compound over time.

In an AI-saturated world, the brands that win aren’t the loudest.

They’re the ones with focus, consistency, and a strategy that holds.

If that’s what you’re building,I’d love to see what we can do together.

How to Optimise Your LinkedIn Profile For 2026 
(Bonus ChatGPT Prompts included) 

You’ve built your business on referrals.
But deep down, you know that’s not sustainable.

And LinkedIn feels overwhelming.
You’ve tried posting, maybe even hired a ghostwriter.
But nothing worked in 2025. 

So if you're starting this journey in 2026. 
Here's the ONE thing you need to do. 

You need to turn your LinkedIn profile into your landing page. 
 And it needs to convert.

So I broke down everything in this carousel 👇

🔧 1. BANNER
 Craft a high-converting value prop in one line

🧠 2. HEADLINE
 Make it crystal clear what you do 

📖 3. ABOUT SECTION
 Plug-and-play formula to turn your bio into a conversion asset

🔗 4. LINK STRATEGY
 Don’t waste traffic. Send your prospects somewhere.

📌 5. FEATURED SECTION
 Lead magnets, Testimonials or Case studies 
 
You don’t need to become a LinkedIn influencer.
You just need a profile that sells for you while you sleep.

It's 1st Jan & you’ve got two options:

1️⃣ Try the prompts for yourself 
2️⃣ Work with me (& save months of testing) 

If option 2 sounds smarter:
Comment or DM me “2026”
 and let’s turn your LinkedIn into an inbound asset.

How to Optimise Your LinkedIn Profile For 2026 

Can ChatGPT now do your ad visuals?
Kinda. Sorta. Almost.

Finally got a chance to test ChatGPT’s new Image 1.5 update.
It lets you generate and edit visuals using text prompts.

✨ What’s new:
Up to 4x faster image generation
Cleaner interface at chatgpt.com/images
Great for ideation: banners, carousels, ad mockups, sales decks

⚡️ How it works:
Type in your prompt
Get visual results in seconds
Edit and iterate directly in the browser

It's super handy for quick concepts.
But it’s not quite there for polished production assets.

I still prefer Gemini’s Nano Banana for now. 🙉

But if you’re looking for a fast ideation tool?
Definitely worth a play.

Tried it yet?
Let me know your verdict ;)

How to use ChatGPT Image 1.5 for Marketing 

I built my own team of GPT writers.
(That saves me 10+ hours a week on content.)

If you’ve watched Big Hero 6, you’d remember Baymax,
the soft-spoken, inflatable robot companion. 

Now imagine if Baymax could write for you. 
That's what I did with my own custom GPTs. 

Audri 2.0 is part of my growing team of custom GPTs.

Each one built with a specific skill
🧠 One handles storytelling
 📈 Another knows visual analogies
 🎯 And one is trained to write conversion-first copy

It’s like having a team of AI assistants 
that actually sound like me.

But I always tell my clients this, 
AI alone isn’t enough.

You can have the best GPT on earth.
But without  strategy, it’s like putting Baymax 
in a boxing ring with no clear plan of attack.

No positioning.
 No audience insight.
 No clarity.

That’s why  AI only works when paired with human strategy.
🧩 Funnel design
 🧩 Positioning clarity
 🧩 ICP-focused copywriting  

Want to build a brand strategy that’s powered by AI 
with a GPT content system that actually converts?

DM or comment “2026” and let's get growing.

How To Build a Custom GPT Writing BAE

Most AI content flops because it lacks one thing 👇 
YOU. 

ChatGPT isn’t always the problem.
The way you’re using it probably is.

Here are 5 common mistakes you might 
be making (and how to fix them):

🔻 Mistake 1: Relying Too Much on AI
You let ChatGPT decide what to say and how to say it.
✅ Add your POV.
 Start with your perspective. 
Ask AI to build on it, not for you.

🔻 Mistake 2: Speaking to Everyone
If your content is for everyone, it speaks to no one.
✅ Pick one ICP.
Talk to a specific person, solve their specific pain.

🔻 Mistake 3: Using AI Copy As-Is
AI is your intern, not your editor-in-chief.
If you’re publishing without rewriting, it shows.
✅ Edit like a human.
Add your personal point of view. 

🔻 Mistake 4: Too Much Fluff
AI mirrors unclear prompts.
Vague inputs = vague outputs.
✅ Start with a strong idea.
If it doesn’t add value, delete it.

🔻 Mistake 5: Copying AI’s Tone of Voice
If your post sounds like ChatGPT, 
no one is going to read it. 
✅ Use your own voice.
Run it through a human lens.
Remove "buzzwords" (Hehe) 

Great AI content doesn’t start with a prompt.
It starts with you.

Learn to teach AI like your intern. 
That’s how you scale content without losing your soul.

Tell me, what other tips would you add?

Building Brands that Convert | Positioning + Strategy + Copywriting | Human X AI Workflows | To God Be The Glory 💛

Why your AI content isn't Converting 

Referrals are great, until they dry up.
If that’s your main strategy heading into 2026?
It’s time to upgrade.

Because a well-optimised LinkedIn profile 
can become your 24/7 salesperson.

And if hate selling (like me), you'd love using 
strategic content to bring inbound leads.

I just had a client come to me today and say, 
"Audrey, I'm ready to work together"
after following my content for the past year.

Most business owners think LinkedIn doesn’t work for them.

 But here’s what’s actually missing:
✅ Strategic positioning
 ✅ Funnel-based content
 ✅ A profile that works like a landing page
 ✅ Consistency, psychology, and creative hooks
 ✅ Tools (like AI) to scale it all without burning out

I break it all down in this 5-part blueprint. 
Save this post for later.

This is the exact system I used to help a client get 
10 inbound leads in 2 weeks through organic content
and another to close a 5-figure deal with $0 ad spend. 

 It’s not about going viral. It’s about building a brand that drives ROI.

Comment or DM me "2026" if you want to build a 
system that sells for you even while you sleep.

How To Build a Brand That Sells For You in 2026

Content isn’t your problem.
Conversion is.

You’re showing up and posting.
But your content isn’t working hard enough.
And you’re not seeing results.

Most business owners confuse content with copy.

They educate, but don’t convert.
They post, but don’t persuade.
They show up, but don’t sell.

Because copywriting isn’t just about writing.
It’s about psychology, structure, and strategy.

That’s why I created this carousel:
 6 Proven Copywriting Frameworks
to help you turn impressions into leads.

Inside, you’ll get:
 → The exact formulas I use for sales pages, emails, and ads
 → When to use each one (based on your funnel stage)
 → Plug-and-play examples so you’re never stuck again

Think of it as a conversion toolbox for business owners 
who want to drive more leads, booked calls and revenue. 

Try these frameworks for yourself. 

Or if you're stuck with a brand that isn’t converting, 
DM me “copy” and I’ll walk you through how to fix it 💛

6 Proven Copywriting Frameworks 

Want copy that sells for you?
Write it like a TACO 🌮

If your content isn’t getting results, 
it’s probably missing one thing. 
The right copy layers.

Here’s my delicious TACO framework you can steal: 

🥙 Shell = The Problem
Grab their attention with their problem
what’s keeping them up at night?
 Go deep.

🌶️ Filling = The Agitation
 Turn up the heat.
 What happens if they don’t solve it?
 Make them FEEL what’s at stake.

🥑 Sauce = The Solution
Now and only now,
talk about your offer.
Position it as the fix.
Use proof, not promises.

If even one layer is missing, your copy will fall flat. 
(Like a sad and dry Taco.) 

P.S.What's your favourite Mexican food?

Need help you turn your content into clients?
Comment or DM me “🌮” and let's get your pipeline full.

The TACO Copywriting Framework  

Being a creator is easier than ever.
Standing out is now harder than ever.

AI has lowered the barrier to entry.
 Anyone can publish. Everyone has tools. Output is fast and constant.

But that’s exactly why strategy matters more than ever.

I was reminded of this last week speaking at Because It’s Christmas, a lovely event hosted by Eldred Wee and Sabrina Princessa Wang.

During the panel on the Speaker–Creator Economy & AI, I had the privilege of sharing the stage with Cindi Wirawan 林幸妮 and De Zhong Chia.

Throughout the discussion, one common thread kept surfacing.

AI can amplify your voice. But it can’t tell you what you stand for.

Sabrina Princessa Wang posed this question,

"If you cloned yourself using AI, would your clone still be an authentic version of you?" 

I personally think that in a world of AI content, authenticity becomes your differentiator.
Your voice, perspectives and lived experiences. 

The other speaker, Vicky Vaswani also reminded us that selling is still about using your voice to build trust.

While Hitesh Ramchandani brought the room to a standstill with his personal journey of overcoming cerebral palsy. 

A super shoutout to Jeremiah 🔊 Su for being such an AMAZING host and bringing the room to life. 

What a meaningful way to close the year.
I can't wait to see what 2026 brings!

Because It's Christmas: A Party You Didn't Know You Needed

2025 stretched me in ways I didn’t expect.

I’m ending this year deeply grateful, not just for the opportunities, but for the people.

This year, I was invited into rooms I once only observed from the outside. To train. To speak. To sit alongside founders who are also building incredible businesses.

I had the privilege of empowering clients making brave career pivots.
Supporting startups as they moved from uncertainty to clarity.
Journeying closely with people building businesses that truly matter.

What drives me has never really changed.
It’s not the titles or the milestones.
It’s impact.

Doing work that genuinely moves the needle.
Seeing ideas take shape, strategies click, and businesses grow because the thinking finally feels aligned.

Being present for the wins and celebrating them as if they were my own.

That’s why I started Close With Copy in the first place.

And I think many entrepreneurs carry this quiet desire.

To build something bigger than themselves and, in their own way, leave things better than they found them.

So to my clients, partners, and community, thank you. You made 2025 incredible.

I’m especially grateful for where I came from.
From having very little, to now building something that once lived only in my imagination.

Here’s to growth.
Here’s to work that matters.
Here’s to 2026. Onwards and upwards.

Happy New Year 💛

Most LinkedIn ChatGPT prompts don’t work.
Not because they’re badly written.
But because they’re not grounded in strategy.

They generate output without direction.
Volume without positioning.
Content without leverage.

That’s why I built a Deep Research Prompt for founders 
who want to generate strategic content. 

A prompt that forces you to think about:
👉 Market tension 
👉 Buyer psychology 
👉 Authority signals  

The reason this prompt works isn’t AI.
It’s because it’s anchored in a founder's positioning. 

AI just helps you execute faster once the thinking is clear.
Without strategy, AI amplifies noise.
With strategy, it becomes leverage.

I’ve turned this into a template that any founder can use
across industries, offers, and levels of maturity.

Btw, if you're reading this post, you have 2 options. 
A) Figure out this year’s content strategy yourself 
B) Work with me so we can save you months of trial & error.

DM me "2026" if you're ready to build a brand that converts.

Walk into an Apple Store.
No discounts. No pushy sales reps.
Yet, you already believe it's the better choice. 

So what’s the difference between
 an Apple Store and a regular phone shop?

They sell similar products.
 In the same category.
 At similar technical specs.

But the experience is worlds apart.

Apple doesn’t win on features alone.
They win because of sharp branding & positioning.
In fact, Apple users show ~90% brand loyalty,
one of the highest retention rates in consumer tech.

Most founders still think branding is a nice-to-have.
 “Just logos, colours, and vibes.”

No. 

Branding (when paired with sharp positioning)
is what sells before the first sales call.

It answers the real buying questions:
 • Why should I trust you?
 • Why is this priced higher?
 • Why you, over 10 others?

Your product feels premium before it’s evaluated.
Your content pre-sells.
Your sales calls become confirmations.

If your company still feels like a “regular phone shop,”
 no amount of posting, ads, or AI tools will fix that.

You don’t need more marketing.
You need sharper positioning.

That’s exactly what we lock in during a
Brand Positioning Sprint.

We define how you stand out in a crowded market
and make you one of one, not one of many.

Comment or DM “APPLE” and I’ll show you how to make your brand
feel like the obvious choice. 

P.S. One of my clients got 4 inbounds instantly when we launched her new website. That's the power of content that converts 🍎

“𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹?”

Ashley asked me this question in her podcast
and my answer surprised her. It’s NotebookLM.

I use it as a second brain.

When I step into a client niche, I usually start with zero context.

Years ago that meant months of reading, interviewing, and messy research
before a single line of copy could be written.

Now I upload everything into NotebookLM:
• YouTube explainers
• briefs and Google Docs
• eBooks and decks
• internal notes

Then I interrogate it.
I ask questions like a curious operator would.
I get tight summaries.
I let it draft briefing outlines for presentations.

Sometimes I even generate audio so I can learn by listening instead of staring at the screen.

This helps me to understand the industry in days, not months.

AI doesn’t replace the craft.
It compresses the time needed to craft.

Your brain has limited capacity. Mine certainly does.
So I’d rather spend that capacity on strategy -
on how to position an offer and translate real human problems into copy that moves pipeline.

That’s the real leverage.

If your team already uses ChatGPT but still feels stuck, noisy, or slow to create quality content, the bottleneck is rarely the tool.

It’s the process you wrap around it.
Thank you for having me Ashley! 🤗

When cities go dark, autonomy gets tested.

This weekend’s Waymo incident isn’t about one company or one outage. It highlights how different self-driving architectures behave when real-world conditions break their assumptions.

As autonomous systems scale into cities, resilience under disruption will matter as much as performance in ideal conditions.

Curious how others think about autonomy design tradeoffs at city scale.

💬 What should be the minimum resilience standard for autonomous vehicles operating in cities?

You don't need to be technical. Just informed.

WAYMO ROBOTAXIS FREEZE DURING BLACKOUT

The best products don’t just solve problems. They reduce friction at the moment it matters most.

When Andrew McNamara helped shape Shopify Sidekick, the vision was clear:

Give users a partner. One that shows up with answers, before they feel stuck or embarrassed to ask.

 “It’s the co-founder you can lean on when you’re unsure, overwhelmed, or just trying to figure out what to do next.”

Sidekick isn’t just helpful. It’s human-centered.

The result?

More merchants moving faster.
Fewer blockers, more clarity.
Confidence in motion.

→ What would a truly user-first product look like in your org?

#ProductStrategy #ShopifySidekick #UXDesign #EcommerceGrowth #FounderTools #AIReportPodcast

What if launching a new product didn’t mean 12 open tabs and a checklist on your phone?

Shopify is quietly changing how merchants build and operate, with custom apps built right into the admin.

You don’t need to be technical.
You don’t need to jump between 8 dashboards.
And you don’t need to ask, “Where do I even start?”

As Andrew McNamara explains:

“You can create an app that helps you launch a new product line and handle everything on one page.
It pulls in data, streamlines tasks, and uses the same components that power Shopify itself.”

No more duct-taping workflows.
No more fragmented execution.
Just focused action, on your terms.

→ What’s one clunky workflow in your business that should be its own app?
