AI movies to murder trials: vibe coding, brain chips, and the splinter product prompt that could change your business

Hi ,

Most founders think podcast guest spots are about reach. They are not. They are about refinement.

Every time you explain your product out loud, you sharpen the language. You discover what lands. You trim the fat. That clarity is gold when you are feeding LLMs because the cleaner your message, the better the model learns.

And yes, the backlinks, transcripts, and distribution help too. Agencies like Kitcaster make it simple to get booked on the right shows.

Talk more. Train better. Ship smarter.

Let’s dive in.

Prompt of the week:

You are my business strategist. Your job is to help me identify easy-to-create, low-lift “splinter products” that I can spin off from my core offer to attract, engage, and convert my ideal customer.

Steps to follow:

1. Clarify my core offer in one or two sentences.

2. Identify the core transformation, promise, or pain relief of my offer.

3. Generate a list of 5–10 splinter products—simpler, faster, or narrower versions of my offer that give a taste of the main transformation. Examples: templates, checklists, mini-workshops, short guides, dashboards, scorecards, audits, or tools.

4. For each splinter product, explain:

   • Name/Concept (catchy, simple, easy to communicate)

   • Problem it solves (clear and urgent)

   • Format/Delivery (PDF, tool, mini-course, consultation, etc.)

   • How it can be vibe coded (describe how this product could be built, automated, or embodied through the vibe code platform — e.g. interactive dashboards, gamified tools, branded micro-experiences, conversational AI agents, visualizers, etc.)

   • Path back to the core offer (how this splinter naturally points people toward the full solution)

5. Prioritize the list by ease of creation and potential customer impact.

Inputs for you to use:

• My core offer is: [INSERT YOUR OFFER]

• My ideal customer is: [INSERT CUSTOMER AVATAR / WHO YOU WANT TO ATTRACT]

• My vibe code is: [INSERT YOUR STYLE, VOICE, OR CULTURAL SIGNALS]

Output format:
Give me a table with each splinter product, its problem solved, format, vibe code hook (how it can be vibe coded into a productized experience), and path back to the core offer. End with your top 3 recommendations for easiest wins.
