YOU EVER DROP SOMETHING SO GOOD IT FEELS ILLEGAL TO GIVE AWAY FOR FREE?

That’s what happened when we posted this ruthless prompt for AI-powered growth experiments.

We weren’t selling. We weren’t hoarding it behind a lead magnet. We just handed over the keys—one prompt designed to help scrappy SaaS startups and small businesses unlock big results on a tiny budget.

Here’s the prompt we shared:

PROMPT (SAVAGE EDITION):
You’re my ruthless AI growth hacker. I need 5 low-budget, high-yield marketing experiments I can launch this month to shake up user growth for a lean SaaS aimed at SMBs.
Break each one down like a boss: What’s the play? What AI tool gets it done faster? Rank Speed, Ease, and Impact (1–5). Drop the expected CPC, CPM, and Conversion Rate using current industry averages. No fluff. No theory. Just practical, test-ready ideas I can run for <$500. Wrap it up with a ROI-ranked battle chart showing which test hits hardest.

Spoiler: the results did not disappoint. ⚡
