Trim Costs Without Cutting Corners

What you'll need

• A list of your regular monthly expenses
• Any AI chat assistant

The steps

1. List out your recurring monthly costs (subscriptions, supplies, services).
2. Paste the prompt and your list.
3. Sort the suggestions into easy cuts vs. ones that need more thought.
4. Cancel or renegotiate one thing this week.

Look at my monthly expenses below and help me find real places to cut, without hurting quality or customer experience.

[paste your list of monthly expenses — item and amount]

For each expense, tell me: keep, cut, or renegotiate — with a one-line reason. Flag anything that looks like a forgotten subscription. Total up the potential monthly savings.

For [specific expense], write a short, polite message asking for a better rate or terms.

What you'll get

A clear keep/cut/renegotiate list with a total potential savings figure — real cuts, not guesswork.

If it's not quite right

• Not sure what you're even paying for? Add "Ask me what each expense actually does for my business first."
• Want to protect certain things? Add "Never suggest cutting [category]."
