PAT BERRY — DIRECT SALES COMPANION
CHAPTER 1: Start with one useful conversation
Starter worksheet for review — October 19, 2026

Choose a real task before choosing another tool. Write who you want to help, what they need, and what a useful next conversation would accomplish.

1. Choose one everyday writing task and remove names and private details.
2. Give an AI assistant the situation, the reader, the purpose, and the facts it may use.
3. Read the draft aloud. Remove invented claims. Save the version you would actually say.
