#RefreshFriday Merchandizing - Someone is Launching a new Service | Joe Pistell

Here is "Joes Core" Prompt.
It enforces quality standards across everything. I HATE hedging, fluff, fillers and I HATE hallucinations. This prompt is soo next level. When you have a complex mission, use it. Insert it at the top of the chat. Let me know how it works

If anyone uses this prompt, let me know how it works for you. There's 2 yrs of work behind "Joes Core" Prompt.
 
@joe.pistell I can't wait until you discover OpenClaw, buy yourself a few Mac Studios and start running a whole team of agents. You're pushing the web-based model so far, but you're scratching the surface of what can be done.

Once you make the leap, alot of things become much easier:
  • Sending a message to your Agent while on the go, telling it to research something for you
  • Reading your emails, meeting minutes or historical chats to prepare you for every day
  • Completing repetitive tasks for you daily - checking the latest stats, running tests, posting content, etc
  • Optimizing - if you can see it, AI can capture it. You can rotate photos on a vehicle every X days for Y period of time and measure the results with an agent, rather than having to prompt it constantly
And many, many more things.
I definitely caution jumping too deep into OpenClaw though - it's a scary world until more strict and secure versions come out.

Survey Your BUYERS at delivery.

So simple, yet so few do it.

Take Aways​

  1. 60% of all sales were on your website 3x or more.
  2. 40% of all buyers NEVER went to another dealership.
This is a small Chevy point in a mid-size market that is flooded with 13 Chevy stores within a one-hour drive.
 

✨ AI Highlights

Joe Pistell, a well-known automotive inventory expert in the DealerRefresh community, previews a new used car merchandising software company he's been building in stealth for five months, with a first beta launch approaching. The thread evolves into a broader discussion about AI-driven development, with Joe sharing his 'meta prompting' framework — including a custom quality-enforcement prompt called 'Joes Core' — and other members chipping in on agentic workflows and Claude Code. A standout data point Joe drops: buyer surveys at a mid-size Chevy store showed 60% of customers visited the dealership website three or more times, and 40% never shopped a competitor, underscoring how critical on-site merchandising quality really is.
