The ChatGPT Automation Blueprint: Automate Your Daily Work Without Writing a Single Line of Code

Brian Murphy is a productivity consultant and automation strategist who helps non-technical professionals take back their time with practical, no-code AI. For more than a decade, he led operations and process improvement programs in service businesses, where he learned the same lesson over and over: most teams don't lack ability, they lack a system for the repetitive work that drains their week.

That belief led him to AI early. Brian began experimenting with large language models long before they were mainstream, and he became convinced the real opportunity wasn't in coding — it was in showing everyday professionals how to write clear instructions that do the work of software. Since then, he has helped hundreds of managers, marketers, administrators, and consultants build personal automation libraries using nothing more than a chat window and a well-structured prompt.

Brian writes and teaches about AI productivity, speaks to professional groups, and runs workshops where participants leave with their first working blueprints in hand. His workshops are built on the same principles as this book: start small, refine relentlessly, and keep human judgment at the center of every automated workflow.

He lives with his family and is, by his own admission, an obsessive documenter of workflows — the kind of person who automates his own grocery list just to test a new idea.
