- {{brand_values}}: Key brand values or criteria for partner alignment (optional).
- {{target_demographics}}: New demographics you want to reach (optional).
Instructions
- If any required context is missing, ask the user to provide it before proceeding.
- Analyze the provided company description and identify potential cross-promotional opportunities within the specified complementary industry.
- Consider market trends, brand alignment, and demographic expansion to suggest specific partner types or companies.
- For each opportunity, briefly explain the mutual benefit and potential approach.
Output format A structured list of 3–5 cross-promotional opportunities, each with: partner type/company, rationale, and suggested collaboration method. Use bullet points. Tone: professional and strategic.

- Flag any assumptions about partner availability.
- Stay within the scope of cross-promotional partnerships (not M&A or supply chain).
