100 battle-tested prompts for finance leaders. $49.

Every finance leader I know is trying to figure out how to actually use AI at work. The demos are convincing. The reality is a blinking cursor.

This pack fixes that.

100 prompts. 10 categories. Every one written by a working CFO for the work you actually do: variance narratives, 13-week cash forecasts, QoE prep, board decks, contract review, investor updates, comp benchmarks, close accelerations, difficult emails.

No fluff. No theory. Copy, paste, edit, ship.

Every prompt is 200-500 words. Every prompt block gives you the full copy-pasteable text, when to use it, an example of what the output looks like when it works, and which model I would actually run it in (Claude vs. ChatGPT vs. Gemini).

Why this pack exists

I built this for myself first. I run finance for a mid-market business. Somewhere between the Twitter demos and the McKinsey slideware, there is a real question: what does an AI-native finance function actually do differently, on a Tuesday?

Turns out the answer is not “adopt a platform”. The answer is: build a library of prompts that map to the actual work, and run them enough times to know which ones save you real hours. That library became this pack.

The prompts in here have been through 6+ months of daily use. The ones that produced generic output got cut. The ones that produced something I actually pasted into a deck, model, or email stayed.

What you get

• The full 100-prompt PDF. 100+ pages. Table of contents. Categorized. Formatted for reading and for pasting.
• The prompts in Markdown. So you can grep them, edit them, and save your refined versions.
• A working library. Not one-liners. Full prompts with the constraints, the format specs, and the voice discipline built in.

Delivery: instant download after purchase.

Who this is for

• CFOs who want to move faster on board prep, investor comms, and strategic analysis
• Controllers who want to accelerate close, tighten technical accounting memos, and cut audit prep time
• FP&A leaders who want driver-based models and variance narratives written in half the time
• Finance operators at PE-backed companies who need to move fast on value creation, cost-out, and portfolio reporting
• Founding / fractional CFOs running lean and covering multiple companies

Not for you if you want prompt tips for content marketing, coding, or general productivity. This is finance-specific.

FAQ

Do I need Claude Pro, ChatGPT Plus, or Gemini Advanced? Any one of them works. The prompts are model-agnostic. I flag the tool I would use for each prompt, but you can run all 100 on whichever you have.

Are these prompts specific to a particular industry? No. Placeholders mark where you plug in your business context.

How long does it take to see value? The first prompt you actually use will save you 30-60 minutes. The pack pays for itself the first time you run the variance narrative prompt at month-end.

Is this a subscription? No. One-time $49. You own the PDF and the source.

What is the refund policy? 7-day, no-questions-asked.

Guarantee

If this pack does not save you more time in the first week than it cost you, email me for a full refund. No form, no runaround.
