Is it your soon-to-be competitor, or could it be your best friend?
Alright, web designers, let’s talk about something that’s going to rock your world – ChatGPT! Yeah, you heard it right. This AI language model is here to shake things up in your business and take your web design game to a whole new level. As a web designer, you know that communication is key – you need to understand your client’s needs and preferences to create a website that they’ll love. But what if you could have a virtual assistant that can help you communicate with clients more efficiently and effectively?
That’s where ChatGPT comes in. In this blog post, we’ll show you how you can use ChatGPT to your advantage, from streamlining client communication to generating creative content ideas — no matter what, I want you to know how to use ChatGPT as a Web Designer. So, let’s buckle up, grab a cup of coffee, and get ready to explore the world of ChatGPT – your new secret weapon in web design!
Let’s Talk About AI and Using it in Your Web Design Business
Whether you’re using OpenAI, MidJourney, Jasper, or something you’ve found on your own, these tools are about to change the game.
Would it shock you if I told you that ChatGPT wrote that blog introduction for me? I mean, the sass, the personality, the vibes- it’s pretty good. And that brings me to this highly debated topic: is ChatGPT helpful or harmful to the creative industry?
While I do not think this is a simple black-and-white topic, I do know that you can either fear new technology or integrate it, and your girl is choosing the latter. ChatGPT, when used correctly, can help streamline your content and give you a little more free time- think of it as almost hiring an employee that doesn’t cost you a dime.
Here are a few ways you can team up with artificial intelligence and nail your content strategy and client communications:
Shake Up Your Content Game
AI can take simple prompts and create captions and blog posts for you. Think of topics like: “5 reasons why you need a website asap,” “10 ways to make sure your website is intuitive,” or “3 things that need to be on every website,” and see what it creates. This can give you a great starting point to generate ideas and then add your spice where needed. You can also use ChatGPT to generate content ideas for you, so whether it; ‘s writing them or keeping your ideas fresh- it’s a game changer for content creation. Plus, if you learn how to use ChatGPT as a Web Designer, especially as a pro — it can literally revolutionize the way you create.
Streamline Your Day and Priority Task Lists
Alright, fellow web designers, let’s talk about the bane of our existence – to-do lists. Yawnnnn- as creatives, it’s the least fun part of girl bossing. The lists never seem to end, and just when you think you’re done, another task pops up. But ChatGPT is a solid solution to prioritize your to-do list and make it more manageable.
This AI model can help you generate to-do lists based on your priorities so that you can tackle those big projects like a boss. It’s super easy, tell ChatGPT what you need to get done, like launching your client’s website by Friday or creating an Instagram share post, and it’ll create a prioritized list that’ll keep you on track.
Nail Your Email Replies
Does that follow-up email give you anxiety? It can be daunting to write an email that’s professional, effective, and not too sales-y. But what if you could tell ChatGPT what you want to say, like “I would be honored to work with you on your website and I could start as early as 3 weeks. I can send an invoice and contract asap and we can get things going,” and watch as it generates a response that’s not only professional but also showcases your awesome personality. Think of it like having a virtual assistant who writes emails for you!
Fine Tune Your Client’s Copy
As a web designer, you know that great design is only half the battle. The other half is ensuring your client’s website copy is on point. But let’s be real – copywriting isn’t always our forte, and it can be a struggle to come up with the right words to showcase our client’s brand.
But that’s where ChatGPT comes in. This tool can help fine-tune your client’s copy and take it to the next level. You can generate clear, concise, and compelling language just by giving it a sample of your client’s existing copy. Then, ChatGPT will analyze it and suggest ways to improve it. Whether it’s refining the tone, sharpening the messaging, or adding more wow factor to the headlines, ChatGPT can help bring it all together.
At the end of the day, ChatGPT can be your new biz bestie- while it won’t replace you, it can help streamline and speed up your content process so you can have extra time to shine, doing what you do best!

Success was never a question for me. Even after dropping out of high school and living the “digital nomad” lifestyle with absolutely no plan in place, I knew for a fact that there were big things waiting for me. When I found the online space in 2016, everything clicked. Starting as a VA, I finally found something that I could do while traveling the world (which is all I’ve ever really wanted out of life). But despite the fact that I was no longer tied down to a place of work, I was still limited in my income and feeling creatively unfulfilled. When I finally decided to allow myself to be the passionate creative that I am deep down, and took the plunge into the world of website design, everything changed for me. I work on my own time, with unlimited income potential, designing websites for passionate entrepreneurs, and I can teach you to do the same.
If you’re wondering where life could take you as a creative who feels allergic to the 9-5 lifestyle, I’d like to welcome you into my family. I gave a resounding “f*ck no” to the “traditional” a long time ago, and I’ve seen just how beautiful it can be when you chase your passions and turn them into massive profit.

Good insight, but I wish this went a bit deeper.
