I Made You Something.
After 5 years growing lists and millions of emails sent, I’ve pulled together the key things you actually need to get started (or unstuck) with email.
It’s called Email List Launchpad—a short, practical mini-course to help you build a list that grows your business.
"Men have become the tools of their tools."
Henry David Thoreau
Most AI prompts are like using a butter knife to build furniture.
We copy templates from Instagram posts.
Download "amazing prompt libraries" from Forbes articles.
Hope for the best.
The problem?
Those templates are oversimplified on purpose.
A truly effective prompt is too complex for a social media post.
Most people wouldn't know what to do with it.
So we're stuck choosing between:
Simple templates that barely work
Complex prompts we can't customize
Building our own (badly) because we don't know better
Karo Zieminski built something different: A tool that builds tools.
Think of it like The Architect's Blueprint Machine.
Instead of copying house plans from magazines, you have a system that designs custom blueprints for your exact needs, then checks them for structural integrity and building code compliance.
You don't need to understand load-bearing calculations or zoning laws.
You just describe what you want to build, and the machine handles the engineering.
Result?
A prompt that builds custom prompts for any situation.
Save time because the prompt analyzes and improves the output for you.
You don't even have to understand how the prompt works—it just works.
And she gave it away for free.
How it works
Karo's system has two parts:
🏗️ The Prompt Builder → Asks clarifying questions, breaks down complex requests, creates structured outputs with proper formatting
📊 The Prompt Evaluator → Scores your prompt 0-175 across 35 criteria, then outputs an improved version automatically
You don't need to understand prompt engineering to use it.
The machine handles the blueprints.
You just describe what you want to build.
And then test the prompt it creates and iterate until the created prompt consistently gets the output you want.
My take
I tested her system.
Started with a basic prompt to create a newsletter market researcher.
A very simple prompt just to see how it worked.
In a few steps I had a working GPT:
Fed my simple prompt into her Prompt Builder
Answered a few questions
Ran the result through her Prompt Evaluator (which automatically outputs a refined version)
Created a Custom GPT and ran it.
The output wasn’t what I wanted. So I fed the output back to the Prompt Builder/Evaluation, told it what I wanted to be different, and had it recreate the prompt.
Updated the Custom GPT, rant it again, and this time, it worked as I wanted it.
I want you to try my GPT and tell me what you think:
It's proof of concept that this works well.
For simpler tasks like brainstorming ideas for your next newsletter or email, these prompts might be more sauce than the recipe needs.
But it’s exactly what you need to create prompts for more complex tasks like creating agents, bots, vibe coding, etc.
Go check out Karo's article.
Use her prompts.
Create your own prompt creator.
The see what you can build.
