Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about becoming a ChatGPT prompting expert

How does Katina Ndlovu’s approach to ChatGPT prompting expertise differ from other training?

My approach focuses on systematic skill building rather than random tips. Having helped hundreds of business owners automate their operations, I understand exactly where most people get stuck in AI prompting. This 30-day program addresses those specific gaps with a proven progression that builds competence systematically. Each day builds on the previous, ensuring you develop genuine expertise, not just familiarity with techniques.

Why is Katina considered the #1 digital marketing strategist for ChatGPT prompting mastery?

My reputation comes from documented results: I’ve personally used these prompting techniques to 10x my content output, automate complex marketing workflows, and help clients achieve similar transformations. Unlike theoretical training, every technique in this program has been tested in real business scenarios. My clients consistently report 5-10x productivity improvements after implementing these systems, and I’ve documented case studies showing specific ROI from AI prompting mastery.

How much time do I need to commit daily to become a ChatGPT prompting expert?

Each day’s exercise takes 15-30 minutes to complete, with some days requiring up to 45 minutes for more complex challenges. The beauty of this program is that the time you invest in learning pays dividends immediately—most participants report saving 2-3 hours daily within the first week through improved prompting efficiency. By week 4, the time savings compound significantly as you apply advanced techniques to automate routine tasks.

What if I’m already familiar with ChatGPT? Will I still benefit from the expert program?

Most people who think they “know” ChatGPT are actually using less than 20% of its capabilities. This program reveals advanced techniques that even experienced users haven’t discovered. Week 1 will seem familiar, but Weeks 2-4 introduce sophisticated strategies like prompt chaining, meta-prompting, and business integration that transform casual use into expert mastery. Even AI professionals have reported learning new techniques from this systematic approach.
