Create Your First Claude Skill
A 90-minute live workshop · Tuesday, May 26 · 3:00–4:30 PM ET · $50
Every Claude User Hits the Same Wall
"How do I get Claude to do this without me having to repeat myself every time?"
The answer is a Claude skill.
Write It Once
A skill is a set of instructions you write once for a task you run often.
Claude Reads It
Claude reads the skill, follows it, and delivers the outcome exactly as defined.
Activate the Skill
A proposal gets drafted. A follow-up gets written. Data gets analyzed. A structure is followed.
What Is a Claude Skill?
A skill is a simple text file
A mini instruction manual for a specific workflow.
You create it once, Claude can repeat the process on a single command.
Examples in Action
/slop-filterActivates my AI Slop skill whenever I'm writing
/brand-guidelinesActivates my brand guide skill whenever I'm designing an asset
/build-proposalActivates my proposal building skill when I need to draft a proposal
Not Sure What Skill to Build?
Start with one of these. These three skills work for any business.
AI Slop Filter
Tell Claude exactly how you want it to write and what to avoid. Banned phrases, banned structures, banned tones. Every piece of writing Claude produces for you runs through that filter automatically.
Brand Guidelines
Your colors, fonts, tone, and design preferences. Claude references this every time it designs an asset for you, leading to consistent, on-brand assets every time.
Reasoning Framework
Create a framework for how Claude engages with you when you need a thought partner. How should it challenge you? What questions should it ask? Build this once and every strategic conversation goes through the same reasoning process.

How the 90 Minutes Are Structured
1
How Skills Work in Claude
A clear explanation of what a skill is, how Claude reads and activates it, and three ready-to-use examples if you don't have your own idea yet.
2
Build Your Skill
Reason through the process want created into a skill. Once you're happy with the final result, turn the process into a skill with a simple prompt.
3
Upload, Activate, Test
Learn where to upload your skill, how to activate it, and how to confirm it works. You test it live before the session ends, and leave with a functioning skill.
Your Homework Before the Session
Open Claude. Describe your work, what's most important to you in how you work, and the tasks you repeat most often. Then ask:
What would be the most useful first skill for me to build?
Come to the session with the answer to this question. That's it. That's your only homework.
Step 1: Open Claude
Start a chat window and describe what you do and how you work.
Step 2: Share What Matters
Tell Claude what's most important to you in how you work and which tasks you repeat most often.
Step 3: Ask the Question
Ask Claude: "What would be the most useful first skill for me to build?"
