How much stuff do you have in your desk drawer that you don't use? I recently made a surprising discovery while helping my team solve a budget shortfall.
There were 50 old tablets that had been sitting in our warehouse for three years, broken projectors, and unused software licenses for each department just sitting there. The problem was, we had a tight digital marketing budget for a new product launch, and we couldn't afford to buy new equipment.
That's when I posed the question to AI:
Prompt.

You are a consultant specializing in resource utilization.
1. Analyze the situation
- Current resources: [list specific resources].
- Goals: [specific goals you want to accomplish].
- Constraints: [budget, time, personnel, etc.]
2. come up with creative ways to utilize
- 3 new uses for existing resources
- Synergistic ways to combine resources
- Step-by-step action plan
3. performance forecast
- Estimated savings
- Additional impact analysis
Enter your [current situation] and come up with creative solutions that are immediately actionable.
The results were amazing. Old tablets were repurposed into kiosks for customer surveys, a broken projector was taken apart for parts and three repairs were made, and unused design software was used to create an in-house content creation team.
Six months later, we'd saved $24 million in budget and had a new marketing channel. The most amazing thing was the explosion of creativity from our employees.
Take a look around your organization today. What "sleeping resources" are waiting to be unleashed?
