Business Setup

Business Context Builder

You have no reusable business context for AI, so every task starts from a blank page and sounds generic.

You get

A structured, reusable Business Profile that every other skill draws on to sound like you.

Who it's for
Any owner setting up Mainstreet.AI for the first time.
When to use it
Once, when you first set up Mainstreet.AI, then edit it whenever your business changes.
What it needs
  • Basic business details (name, industry, location, service area)
  • Your core services and typical jobs
  • A few real examples of how you write to customers
What it produces
A clean, sectioned Mainstreet Business Profile with a "gaps to fill" summary listing any high priority fields still missing.
Files you receive
Three formats, so it works with whatever you already use:
  • ClaudeInstallable skill package (.zip). In Claude: Settings → Capabilities → Skills → Create skill → Upload a skill. Upload the ZIP without unzipping it, then turn the skill on.
  • ChatGPTCustom GPT instructions (.md). In ChatGPT: create a new Custom GPT, then paste the instructions file into the Instructions field.
  • UniversalCopy-and-paste prompt (.md). Open the file, copy the whole thing, and paste it into a new chat with any AI assistant.
Time to first result
Set up once; saves rework on every task after

The owner says

"Clearview Gutters, Grand Rapids. We do gutter cleaning, guards, and minor repairs within 20 miles. I keep it friendly and sign off 'Thanks, Sam.'"

It hands back

BUSINESS PROFILE — Clearview Gutters (Grand Rapids, MI)

Services: gutter cleaning · gutter guard installation · minor gutter repairs
Service area: within 20 miles of Grand Rapids
Typical customers: homeowners, mostly fall/spring rushes
Voice: friendly, plain-spoken, no hard sell
Sign-off: "Thanks, Sam."
Follow-up comfort: 3 touches, then let it rest
Numbers: average job $240 · busiest Oct–Nov and Apr–May

Saved. Every other skill will now write like Clearview — friendly, brief,
signed "Thanks, Sam." — and use the 20-mile service area when triaging leads.

Illustrative example — not a customer result.

How it works

  1. 1Asks simple questions, one section at a time, with examples.
  2. 2Lets you answer "unknown" for anything you're not sure about, it never guesses a value.
  3. 3Flags which missing answers matter most and why.
  4. 4Produces a Profile you can read, edit, and reuse across every skill.

Catches what is slipping

Captures the thresholds every other assistant uses to catch what is slipping, so the whole product runs on your numbers.

Manual

You show it

Your answers to plain questions, with sensible defaults offered for every threshold

What gets flagged

  • Sets your lead response window (default 4 business hours)
  • Sets your estimate follow up windows (first nudge day 3, quiet at day 7)
  • Sets invoice terms, grace, and reminder cadence (default Net 15 plus 3 days grace)
  • Sets review request timing (default within 3 days of a finished job)

It never invents a threshold you did not give, and it never contacts anyone.

What you need to run it

You need an account with an AI assistant — Claude, ChatGPT, or another. Installing skills in Claude and creating Custom GPTs in ChatGPT both need those providers' paid plans; the copy-and-paste version works on any plan. See Anthropic's help center for what your plan includes. (Last verified 2026-08-02.)
