I combined AI with my THINK methodology to cut the troubleshooting time from hours to minutes.

Let me share the process I used to diagnose and fix email deliverability problems using AI as my technical assistant.

When my email response rates plummeted, I faced a familiar dilemma: spend hours researching technical DNS settings and email authentication, or ignore the problem and lose business opportunities.

I applied my THINK methodology with AI as my diagnostic partner:

1. Task Definition - I captured screenshots of my email metrics showing the problem [Screenshot of declining open rates with arrows]

2. Hypotheis - Instead of googling for hours, I asked AI to analyze my screenshots [Screenshot of conversation with AI analyzing the email settings]

3. Invest - I refined the diagnosis through targeted questions about specific settings [Screenshot showing back-and-forth conversation identifying the DNS issues]

4. Network - AI provided exact steps to fix the authentication problems [Screenshot of the specific recommended changes]

5. Knowledge - I created a simple system to monitor email health going forward [Screenshot of monitoring template]

The Results: 10 Minutes vs. 3+ Hours

This approach cut my troubleshooting time from an estimated 3+ hours of research and trial-and-error to just 10 minutes of focused conversation with AI. The fixes worked immediately - my authentication issues were resolved and deliverability improved.
