What we've seen implementing Prompt Engineering & LLMs for real clients
First-hand notes from Mark Barclay, drawn from SynaBot consultancy engagements and from running the SynaBot platform — not from secondary research.
Specialist assistants beat one general chatbot for repeat work
Building SynaBot's assistant roster made the pattern obvious: a general model does fine on one-off questions, but repeat work needs a fixed role, fixed context and a fixed output format. Once the brief lives inside the assistant rather than in the user's head, output quality stops depending on who is typing.
Mark Barclay · Building the SynaBot assistant rosterAdoption is a training problem, not a tooling problem
We trained three managers at The Internet Monkeez in a single-day workshop and kept coaching on call afterwards. The behavior that stuck was assigning work to a named specialist assistant rather than opening a blank chat box — the team now uses six SynaBot assistants daily. Teams that skip the enablement step usually still have the licenses a year later and none of the habits.
