How To Use AI to Power Your Business Plan in 2026
The Business Plan
ABOUT
This business plan is intentionally comprehensive because running a real estate business requires more than setting production goals. It guides you through a full review of your life, your finances, your systems, your marketing, your habits, and the way you’re currently operating — not just the numbers you hope to hit. REMINDER: We want to build an aligned business— one that fits our life, so life has to be part of our business plan.
Most agents only revisit their finances or evaluate their systems when something is broken. This plan forces you to take an honest look before the year begins.
Inside, you’ll evaluate:
Your financial foundation and whether it supports the business you want to build
Your systems, tech stack, and operational gaps
Your marketing efforts and ROI
Your production numbers and conversion rates
Your expenses and budget
Your sphere, prospecting habits, and actual sources of business
Your pain points, inefficiencies, and the areas you avoid
Your bigger dreams and the lifestyle you want to build
The specific actions required to hit your goals this year
The goal of this plan is:
To give you an accurate picture of where you are, what’s working, what’s not, and what needs to change so you can build a more efficient, profitable, and personally aligned real estate business.
It’s not just about forecasting production.
It’s about understanding your business at a deeper level so your numbers, systems, and daily actions match the outcomes you want.
The Pre-Upload Game
Before ChatGPT can turn a business plan into an actionable roadmap, it needs context — your context. Every agent builds a business differently. Some lean heavily into sphere marketing, some run community events, some farm a neighborhood, some focus on downsizing seniors or relocations. Some host parties all year… and others would rather negotiate a contract than host an open house.
In this masterclass, you’ll learn how to “train” ChatGPT to understand your business model, your ideal client, your niche, and your preferred marketing style before you upload your business plan. This allows ChatGPT to generate a daily schedule, marketing plan, and 12-month calendar that matches how you work, not how the industry says you should work.
Think of this as giving ChatGPT your business DNA so it can give you a customized action plan that actually fits you—and that you’ll actually execute.
Before I upload my business plan, here’s everything you need to know about my real estate business so you can create a customized daily plan, marketing plan, and 12-month execution schedule that fits the way I work.

WHAT THIS DOES FOR YOU
This upfront prompt ensures:
✔ ChatGPT doesn’t suggest cold calling if you refuse to cold call.
✔ ChatGPT doesn’t include open houses if don’t do open houses.
✔ Marketing plans match your niche, voice, and preferences.
✔ Event-driven agents get event-based plans; digital agents get digital-heavy plans.
✔ Sphere-based businesses get sphere-driven schedules.
✔ The 12-month calendar aligns with you, not just the numbers.
It gives ChatGPT the context it needs to behave like a true business coach, not a generic checklist machine.
Once Your Business Plan Is Complete — Here’s What We’ll Do With It in ChatGPT
Once you’ve filled out your business plan, we’ll upload it directly into ChatGPT and turn it into an execution roadmap. ChatGPT will read your goals, your systems, your financial picture, your strengths, your gaps, and the way you prefer to run your business — and then convert all of that into a customized daily plan, a monthly schedule, and a full 12-month calendar you can actually follow.
Instead of a plan that sits idle, you’ll walk away with a clear, personalized blueprint for 2026—what to do, when to do it, and how to stay accountable all year long.
