How to Turn a Brain Dump Into a Strategic AI Prompt

Live from Investfest 2025 at the RapDillz Stage, I gave the crowd a p owerful strategy on turning scattered ideas into strategic prompts that actually perform.

Let’s be honest. Most people have plenty of ideas, but what they really need is structure. You might have voice notes, sticky notes, or half-written drafts. You know what you want to say, but it’s not coming across the way you want.

That’s where AI comes in. I’m not talking about the kind you just experiment with, but the kind you train to think and write like you, and deliver results that fit your brand.

On stage, I shared the exact system I use to create high-converting content, funnels, and client deliverables. It’s not magic; it’s a method. And it all begins with structured, strategic AI prompt writing.

If you’ve ever stared at a blank screen, unsure how to get your ideas out, this method will help. A clear process that lets you train AI to work like you and scale your results.

The 5-Step System to AI Prompt Writing

These are the exact steps I use to turn raw ideas into structured prompts that sound like you, sell for you, and scale with you.

Step 1: Dump It All Out

Before you write a prompt, you need to write everything.

I call it the brain dump. It’s where you let your ideas flow. Unfiltered and unedited. Just write what you want AI to know:

Who you’re talking to.
What you want it to create.
What outcome you’re aiming for.

Don’t worry about spelling, grammar, or punctuation. Just get it out of your head and onto the page.

Once your thoughts are out, you can shape them into something strategic. That’s the first move in AI prompt writing.

Step 2: Organize the Chaos

When it comes to AI prompt writing, structure is what turns chaos into clarity.

After the brain dump, your job is to shape those raw ideas into something AI can actually follow. Start by scanning what you wrote.

What’s the main message?
What’s extra?
What needs more detail?

This is where you build the flow. You’re not just organizing, you’re layering. Audience, format, tone, goal, context. Each piece adds direction. Each layer gives AI a clearer path to follow.

Once it’s structured, the prompt starts working like a blueprint.

Step 3: Train It to Sound Like You

Okay, your prompt has structure. Now let’s make sure it sounds like you.

This is the part most people skip, and it’s why their content feels off. You’ve got to teach AI your voice. That means giving it samples of how you write, the phrases you use, the energy you bring, and the way you want people to feel when they read your stuff.

Don’t just say “make it friendly” or “use a casual tone.” Show it. Feed it your actual words. Let it learn your vibe.

That’s how AI prompt writing becomes powerful. When the voice matches, the message lands. And when the message lands, the results follow.

Step 4: Let AI Help You Fill the Gaps

You’ve got the structure. You’ve got the voice. Now let’s make sure it’s tight.

Before you hit run, ask AI what it still needs. Just type:

“Before you begin, what do you need to know to make this prompt better?”

That one line makes a big difference. AI will respond with questions about tone, audience, format, or examples. Suddenly, you’re building a smarter prompt without any guesswork.

This is how you improve your process. You’re not just giving instructions; you’re letting AI help you make them better.

Step 5: Test, Refine, Repeat

You’ve built the prompt, now run it.

See what AI gives you. If it’s off, fix it. If it’s close, tighten it. This is where you dial it in. I tweak the order, add details, cut what’s clunky, and rerun until it hits.

That’s how I build consistency. That’s how I train my AI agents to sound like me, sell like me, and scale like I do.

You’re not just writing prompts. You’re building a repeatable system that works every time.
