Baby Shower Story
This was the experience my wife had while going to a baby shower in mid-state Missouri. The AI created a 398 word story of what my wife experienced during her trip… All I did was answer questions. The AI also created a short version of 87 words.

Additionally, the AI created 10 titles to the story from just a few prompts… Here is one title:

"Family Feud and Wild Children Turned a Baby Shower into a Circus in Columbia, MO!”

Additionally, there were 10 more titles created with other hooks that lead to a moral of the story. Here is another example:

"The Baby Shower From Hell: How Unruly Kids and Family Drama Sent Guests Fleeing - The Full Story Unveiled!”

Continuing with this example, the AI created ANOTHER version of the story that was 311 words long.

Following a different path, I wanted to see how well the AI would do to create sales copy for some Facebook posts. This was for my 26 week course on becoming successful as an entertainer.

3 posts were created… one at 216 words, another at 206 words, and lastly one at 101 words

24 book titles were created after I answered several questions.

Examples:

"Magic Means Money: How Magicians Can Conjure Up a Steady Stream of New Clients and Business Opportunities”

"Spellbinding Success: How Magicians Can Harness Their Charisma to Enchant Potential Clients and Secure a Steady Flow of New Business!"

"Sell Like Magic: Effortless Sales Strategies for Entertainers”

"Beyond the Rabbit in the Hat: Innovative Marketing Tactics for Entertainers"

"The Wealthy Entertainer: How to Transform Your Passion Into a Lucrative Business”

"Magical Marketing: Using Promotional Strategies to Boost Show Bookings"

The AI also wrote two requests for interviews on podcasts.

The AI was also used to rewrite and intro to a magic book I wrote.

I answered questions about an experience I had very early in my career and the AI wrote two separate examples of the experience that could have easily been used as a newspaper story. One example was 565 words, the other 514.
The experience I had was a successful rope escape on the square in Springfield MO, which then led to a failure the second time I attempted it after cowboys practiced for hours to make sure I didn’t make it the second time.

The AI created a 400 word article for this experience, then 10 headlines. I then asked for a shorter version which dropped to only 155 words. Then I asked for separate hooks to “Sell” the story. The AI created 3.

The AI then gave an analysis of the article, to wit:

Overall, the article is engaging and clear but could benefit from some tightening in sentence structure and a more gripping hook and call to action.

Next, the AI gave me 5 different first sentence hooks to capture interest… Here is one of them:

Every magician faces their moment of reckoning, and mine came when I was outwitted by cowboys in Springfield's bustling square.

I then proceeded to rewrite the content of the article using AI. 7 paragraphs.

The Title: The Thrill of Escape: Conquering Life's Challenges

The AI then gave me some social media posts… Here is one example:

"Ever faced a challenge head-on and lost? I did, in a public rope escape gone awry. It taught me resilience and self-reliance. Never let others control your destiny. Embrace setbacks, learn, and grow.”

I then asked AI to give examples of lessons learned from the rope escape.

Here is what it gave me:

**Prepare Exhaustively:** Whether it’s a physical escape or a life challenge, preparation is key. Understand the tools and scenarios you’ll face. Knowing your environment and the constraints can turn obstacles into manageable tasks.

**Build Resilience:** Tough times are inevitable. Embrace them, learn, and grow stronger. Resilience isn't about never failing; it's about bouncing back each time you fall.
**Rely on Yourself:** While help is great, self-reliance builds confidence and ensures you remain in control. Trust your skills and instincts.

**Maintain Flexibility:** Rigidity can be a downfall. Be prepared to adjust your strategies and approaches as situations evolve.

**Stay Determined:** Keep your end goal in sight. Persistence is often the difference between failure and success. Believe in your capabilities.

Next I tasked the AI to help me create a printed version of my origin story.

Here is everything I got:

My Origin Story As A Magician

I couldn't believe it. I had just been offered a gig to perform at a prestigious hotel, and when I asked my boss for time off to make it happen, they flat out refused. It was November 1984, and I was at a crossroads. I had to make a tough decision.

After much contemplation, I made up my mind. I quit my job to honor my commitment to perform at the hotel. Little did I know, the agent who booked the show had also negotiated a deal for me to perform in February. When I found out, I fired the agent and decided to book my own shows from then on.

Despite the rocky start, I ended up doing both the November and February shows, which ultimately opened the doors for me to become a full-time performer. I worked tirelessly to sharpen my act, make connections in the industry, and book more shows. Within just 60 days, I had lined up a slew of performances and started traveling the country.

It was during this time that a friend in the industry suggested I try my hand at the family market. I took their advice and made 54 phone calls, booking 18 family-oriented shows. Though I had no experience in this market, I was determined to succeed. With the help of my friends, I learned how to tailor my act to appeal to families, communicate with parents, and sell myself to a brand-new demographic.

I continued to push forward, learning and growing with each show I did. I soon discovered that perseverance and a willingness to learn on the job were key to my success. From that experience, I learned the valuable lesson that sometimes, taking a leap of faith and being open to new opportunities can lead to unexpected triumphs.

In the end, quitting my job to honor my commitment to perform at the hotel was the catalyst for my transformation from a struggling performer to a successful magician booked for shows all over the country. It just goes to show that sometimes, even the most challenging situations can lead to the most magical outcomes. And that, my fellow magicians, is a lesson worth remembering.
