Principle Three

Deliver Legendary Client Service

With a Human Touch.

Do the little things, as well as the big things, that blow clients away. Create extraordinary experiences they will tell others about. Loyalty is earned by doing the unexpected.

Make them say "wow." Pay attention to the things that make them unique. Use handwritten notes, personalized gifts, and timely phone calls to show you care about them as individuals.

Genuine thoughtfulness can't be faked.

AI Learning Working Smarter with Claude

Two Habits.
Every Time.

These two things, done before you type a single prompt, will change the quality of everything you get back.

01

Decide the output first.

Format, dimensions, size. One task, not a project. The more specific, the better the result.

02

Make it ask you questions.

Before it builds anything, tell Claude to stop and ask what it needs to know.

Vague Specific
"Make me a presentation" "Make me one 16:9 slide"
"Create a chart" "Make me a high-resolution graph at 1920×1080"
"Build me a client report" "Make me an 8.5×11 PDF with these three data points"
"Write our Q3 newsletter" "Draft a subject line for our Q3 newsletter"

Claude doesn't have a default format. If you don't specify dimensions and output type, it makes a reasonable guess — and that guess will cost you a round of revisions. Thirty seconds of specificity upfront saves fifteen minutes of cleanup later.

Setting Up
Your Project

For Building

Brand Guide
.html

For Writing

Messaging Guide
.txt

Before you start, think about your output. That tells you which file to upload. Resist the urge to upload everything. Too much context and Claude starts making its own choices about what matters.

Building Something

A layout, a slide, a PDF

Upload the Brand Guide (.html)

Writing Something

An email, a summary, client copy

Upload the Messaging Guide (.txt)

Then Layer In

Client documents, fund data, meeting notes. Claude reads everything in your project before it responds.

Example: Summarizing a Fidelity VC fund? Upload the fund materials plus the Messaging Guide. Claude knows the data and knows how Parcion sounds.

Know What It
Builds Well

The output format matters as much as the content.

Works Well

  • HTML pages and layouts
  • PDFs sized to spec
  • Charts and data visualizations
  • Tables and data exports
  • Graphics at defined dimensions

Use With Caution

  • Native Word documents
  • PowerPoint files
  • Multi-tab, complex Excel sheets
  • Anything native to Microsoft

Build in Claude first. Move it over manually.

This Is Just
the Beginning

"The biggest gains from electricity didn't come from replacing a steam engine with an electric motor, it came when the electric motor was redesigned into every individual tool, and the factory floor was rebuilt around it."

Paraphrased, Art Zaske

We're in that moment. The question isn't how to make Claude work inside PowerPoint and Word. It's whether PowerPoint and Word are still the right tools at all. Expect the way we work to change, and workflows that don't look like the old ones.
