This week on Trades Talk, host Justin White shares real-world strategies for using AI and ChatGPT to boost productivity, streamline operations, and shift from manual work to smarter systems. What used to take four hours, Justin now does in thirty seconds, thanks to custom AI tools designed specifically for the green industry.

The episode opens with a story about helping a friend estimate a fence project using a custom GPT called Landscape Intelligence. The tool generated pricing, materials, permits, and layout suggestions instantly. This is just one example of how AI is transforming time-consuming tasks into fast, repeatable workflows.

In this episode, Justin shares:

• How to build a Master Prompt that gives ChatGPT consistent, high quality answers

• Why custom GPTs are changing the game for landscapers, marketers, and operations teams

• How to use the Projects feature in ChatGPT to track documents, collaborate, and maintain context

• Why AI has allowed him to go from a biweekly podcast to twice per week

• What to expect at Lean Scaper Dallas and Aspire Ignite Anaheim

Justin also explains how AI is driving a major shift in labor, freeing up teams to focus on higher value work while machines and software take on the repetitive. He encourages listeners to start experimenting now, lean into new tools, and build systems that will drive the next generation of business growth.
